The Porto goalkeeper has a £64million release clause and any move for the 25-year-old won't be cheap but it may well be a price worth paying.
Lucas Chevalier
Chevalier has attracted interest from clubs all across Europe after his impressive form for French side Lille.
The 23-year-old is a regular in the France squad and was named Ligue 1's best goalkeeper last season, winning the award ahead of PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
The Brazilian goalkeeper has attracted interest from United and is said to be available for around £6million this summer.
