United recently secured their Champions League place with a convincing win over Chelsea. This is a big boost for them to search for Min-jae this summer.

The 26-year-old has reportedly given the green light for a transfer and qualification for the elite club competition has put United in a strong position to sign him.

Min-jae has almost no weaknesses in his game. He is a ball-playing defender averaging over 70 passes per appearance. He averages 1.6 tackles and 3.6 clearances.

The centre-back has also caught the eye with his superb heading skills. Therefore, his signing for United is a no-brainer and could be signed for a reasonable transfer fee.

He has a €60m release clause in his current deal with Napoli, but United will have to wait until July to sign him. The redemption clause applies to the first 15 days of July.
