Manchester United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the club with a move for West Ham United defender Issa Diop.

According to Sky Sports, United are interested in signing Diop from Premier League rivals West Ham and are willing to pay £45 million as transfer fee and throw a player in the deal.

The Mirror, though, has claimed that West Ham do not want to sell the central defender and want to retain his services, but Sky Sports insist that the Hammers will do business for £60m.

United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation regarding the 22-year-old French centre-back.

Below are some of the best comments:

Good signing for Manchester United?

Diop joined West Ham from Toulouse in the summer of 2018 for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £22 million.

The 22-year-old central defender was one of the best players for the Hammers this past season and was hugely impressive with his performances for the London club.

The centre-back would be a very good signing for United, who have not exactly looked great at the back in recent times.
