MANCHESTER UNITED have sent scouts to watch Sassuolo midfielder Davide Frattesi – but face competition if they want to land him.
Other sides throughout Europe are also interested in the 23-year-old, who has caught attention with a string of impressive performances in the middle of the park.
Frattesi has been at Sassuolo since 2017 after joining from Roma.
But he has gone out on loan three times in that time, before finally landing a first team spot this season.
Gazzetta dello Sport report that Man United have sent scouts to monitor the player.
He is seen as a consistent, physical player with a strong turn of pace and quick to win back possession.

Tottenham, Brighton and West Ham are all reportedly interested in acquiring the Italian, who has three caps to his name.
Roma and Inter Milan have also been linked to the young star.
Frattesi has made nine appearances in Serie A this season and already has two goals.
