Manchester United have targeted Lyon left-back Michel Bastos as a feasible replacement for Reds full-back Patrice Evra, could be on his way to either Real Madrid or Barcelona in the summer.
Patrice Evra, linked with an Old Trafford way out in the summer, so United are drawing up a list of possible replacements.
Brazil international Michel Bastos, one of the best attacking left-backs around, has scored 5 times and provided 4 assists for Olympique Lyon this season. He is contracted to Lyon until 2013 and is rated at 15-20 million euros.
Bastos 25-year-old has certainly benefited from playing higher up the pitch, but his huge quality shines through since his left foot must be one of the finest squad in Europe. He has also scored in Lille’s 2 most recent games, against Lorient and Marseille and is currently one of the top goal scorers in Ligue 1; this Brazilian is always a threat to the opposition goalkeeper.
Michel Bastos joined Lille in 2006/7 and is now in his 3rd season at the club, earlier this Brazilian, had played for seven clubs.
Other possible targets are Benfica’s – Fabio Coentrao and Newcastle’s – Jose Enrique.
