Lindelof agent confirms bids for Man Utd target

Victor Lindelof's agent has confirmed Benfica have received formal bids for the defender amid ongoing speculation Manchester United are keen to sign the Sweden international.

The 22-year-old's representative, Hasan Cetinkaya, has now acknowledged there is serious interest in the centre-back and they are ready to sit down with Benfica to discuss a potential transfer. "There are offers. That is correct. But Victor has not agreed terms with any club. He still has an ongoing contract with Benfica," he said.
