Man United target Murillo as Maguire replacement | OneFootball

With excellent performances in the English Championship, defender Murillo has caught the attention of Manchester United. The information was reported by the newspaper Daily Mail.

Sold by Corinthians in the 23/24 season, the defender has been attracting the attention of several clubs from the old continent since arriving in England. With a possible departure of Harry Maguire in mind, the Red Devils believe that the 23-year-old defender would be a great alternative.

United believes that a potential qualification for the Champions League could be an attractive factor for the Brazilian. Fighting against relegation in the Premier League, Nottingham Forest should only reach the Champions League if they win the Europa League.

Murillo's career statistics

For Corinthians, the homegrown talent played in 27 matches for the senior team and did not score any goals or provide assists. Meanwhile, at Forest, Murillo wore the club's shirt on 96 occasions, scoring three goals and helping the team with two assists.
