Manchester United could reportedly land Tottenham Hotspur's Toby Alderweireld during the January transfer window.

Manchester United could reportedly land Tottenham Hotspur's Toby Alderweireld during the January transfer window, having tried and failed to sign the centre-back during the summer.

Alderweireld was strongly linked with a switch to Old Trafford ahead of the 2018-19 campaign, but the Belgium international ultimately remained at Spurs.

However, according to The Sun, United boss Jose Mourinho has been informed that funds will be made available to bring a new centre-back to the club in January, and Alderweireld remains the leading target.

The 29-year-old will see his current deal with Spurs expire at the end of the season.

The Belgium international will be available for £25m in the final two weeks of next summer's transfer window if Tottenham trigger a one-year extension on his contract though, which is expected to see the defender depart.

Alderweireld has made 19 appearances in all competitions for Tottenham this season.
