Man United join the race to sign 20-year-old Chelsea, Man City target

Atalanta defender Giorgio Scalvini is attracting a lot of interest from the top European clubs with his performances and Manchester United have entered the race to sign him.

A report from Fichajes claims that Manchester United will compete with Chelsea and Manchester City for the 20-year-old central defender.

The Red Devils could certainly use a quality young defender like him and Scalvini could prove to be the ideal long-term replacement for someone like Jonny Evans. He is already an important first-team player for Atalanta and he has the ability to establish himself as an important player for Manchester United in the Premier League as well.

The 20-year-old has the physical and technical attributes to do well in English football and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Giorgio Scalvini would improve Man United, Chelsea and Man City

The opportunity to join clubs like Chelsea and Manchester City will be quite tempting as well.

Although Chelsea are going through a rough patch right now, they are one of the biggest clubs in the country and they have the financial resources to pay up for him. On the other hand, Manchester City have a proven track record of winning major trophies and any player will be attracted to the idea of joining them.

They have the best manager in the world in charge as well and Pep Guardiola could play a key role in the development of the Italian defender.

All three clubs have the financial resources to afford the defender and it remains to be seen whether they can secure an agreement with Atalanta in the coming months.
