Manchester United are reportedly keeping a close eye on Dinamo Zagreb centre-back Filip Benkovic.
It’s claimed by Scouts in Attendance that United were tracking the progress of the promising young defender, who was in good form when his side faced Hajduk Split recently.

Benkovic has long been tipped for big things in his homeland of Croatia, and has attracted the interest of several clubs across Europe in recent years. Celtic, in particular, have been linked with a move for the youngster for some time now.
The 20-year-old is a full international for the Croatia Under-21s, but is yet to make his full debut on the senior stage for his country.
Despite this though, United are evidently keen, and have been keeping a close eye on Benkovic, according to reports.
