Bruno Peres - TorinoManchester United and Real Madrid are reportedly weighing up the possibility of making a move to sign the Brazilian wing-back Bruno Peres from Torino.

The 25-year-old has been linked with a number of top European sides since joining the Granata for the 2014-15 season.

According to The Sun, Zinedine Zidane’s Real Madrid are the most seriously interested party as they regard Peres as a potential replacement for Dani Carvajal after also monitoring Paul Pogba at Torino’s local rivals Juventus.

Los Blancos are keen on Peres as they believe his attacking ability could suit their side as they want a wing-back more for their offensive play than defensive nous.

Manchester United already have a relationship with Il Toro after signing Italy international Matteo Darmian from the club in July 2015.

Bayern Munich and Barcelona are also thought to be keeping an eye on the player who Porto had a bid rejected for over the summer.

Peres has made 14 Serie A appearances for Torino during the 2015-16 season but is yet to score after netting on three occasions in the prior campaign.
