Manchester United could have hired a star defender for 86 million pounds less than its current estimate, according to a report.
Central French back Dayot Upamecano has played 14 Bundesliga matches this season with Leipzig, including four in the Europa League.
Recent reports have suggested that Naples is about to open talks with RB Leipzig on an agreement for the long-term target of the Red Devils.
The Serie A team is looking for defensive reinforcements and could be about to hire a player related to United and Barcelona during the whole month of January.
CRC Radio declare that The sports director of Napoli, Cristiano Giuntoli, asked RB Leipzig to inquire about the availability of the young man of 20 years.
If we believe the latest report Mirror Football, United will be upset if Upamecano is a big money, because they had the chance to sign it in 2015.
According to the player's agent, Thierry Martinez, United was "the club that made him dream since childhood" and explained how the deal had failed.
"An intermediary met us, but between the project that she presented to us and what was really going to happen.
"An apartment was promised, but that changed for a homestay with only six round trips for his parents.
"When you uproot a player at such a young age, that's not enough. I wanted Dayot to have a stable emotional balance off the field. "
Upamecano currently has a release clause of 88 million pounds, which would make him the most expensive defender of all time, if a club chose to trigger it.
