Manchester United are the latest big name club to be linked with highly rated Danish defender Simon Kjaer.

The 20-year-old defender is winning rave reviews for his performances at Italian side Palermo, as well as for his performances in the World Cup qualifiers for Denmark.

The youngster was heavily linked with Premier League clubs Liverpool and Chelsea in March, and has since attracted admiring glances from Real Madrid.

Now it's the turn of Manchester United to be linked with the defender, according to Tuttomercatoweb.com.

Kjaer is a self-confessed Liverpool fan, but admitted that it would not stand in the way of a potential move to Old Trafford.

"If United just had two defenders whilst Liverpool had three, I would choose United without hesitation," Kjaer said in October.

Sir Alex Ferguson is keen to strengthen his defence with the long-term fitness of Rio Ferdinand still in question, and Kjaer is one of a number of defender to be linked with the Old Trafford club.
 
"It does not help to choose with the heart in that kind of situation. I am a professional." The Danish defender is believed to have a minimum fee release clause in the region of £11 million in his contract.
