Manchester United face competition from Manchester City for the signing of Caglar Soyuncu.

According to a report in The Sun the Freiburg defender has caught the attention of both clubs as they prepare for a summer spending spree.

The 20-year-old has made a stunning start to life in the Bundesliga after switching from Turkish side Altinordu during the summer.

From the report in The Sun it seems that Soyunca’s preference would to be to move to Manchester United and work with Jose Mourinho but footballers have never been slow to change their minds.

Pep Guardiola has made improving his side’s defending a priority with Southampton’s Virgil van Dijk at the top of his list of signing targets.

City’s extensive scouting network has flagged up the progress of Soyunca, with Guardiola now involved and approving a deal the scene is set for a battle between the two big Manchester clubs for the signing of the young Turk.
