CLUBS are queuing up to sign Napoli centre-back Kim Min-jae.
But they all trail Erik ten Hag's Manchester United, who are Betfair's favourites to clinch his signature before the transfer window closes in September.

Min-jae has quickly established himself as one of the top central defenders in Italy after arriving from Fenerbahce for £15million last summer.
He replaced Chelsea's Kalidou Koulibaly in the heart of Napoli's defence, and has helped guide the club to within touching distance of their first Serie A title since 1990.
The South Korea international, who's been dubbed The Monster, is contracted until June 2025 with the option to extend by a further two years.
However, the 26-year-old has a relatively affordable release clause of £40m, and is believed to fancy a move to England.
SunSport understand he's attracted plenty of interest from the Premier League with both Manchester clubs considering an approach this summer.

The Red Devils are considered favourites at odds of 2/1 with Ten Hag eager to bolster his defensive options.
Harry Maguire has come under plenty of scrutiny over the past couple of seasons, and many expect him to leave Old Trafford.
Manchester City are next in the betting market at 6/1.
Pep Guardiola is an admirer of Kim despite having numerous centre-back options in Ruben Dias, John Stones, Nathan Ake, Manuel Akanji and Aymeric Laporte.
However, Guardiola is supposedly prepared to allow Laporte leave for Barcelona while Stones and Ake have excelled as inverted full-backs.
Liverpool and Chelsea are next at 6/1 and 8/1 respectively, while French champions Paris Saint-Germain are further behind at 10s.
Barcelona are offered at 12/1, while Newcastle and Arsenal complete the list of potential suitors at 14/1 and 16/1.
