The 18-year-old is regarded as one of the best young centre-backs in Argentina and he has been touted to move to Europe.

United and AC Milan are keeping a close eye on him and Ole report that the former have been making advances in the pursuit.

The club have been tracking the teenager for some period of time and they could make a concrete offer for his services soon.

The player currently has a release clause worth €20m in his deal, but it appears United could attempt to sign him for less.

The big stumbling block for the transfer could be Anselmino himself. He is reluctant to leave for Europe at the current point.

United have a big job on their hands to convince him. They may have to loan him back to Boca Juniors as part of the deal.
