Leeds want Manchester United defender Cameron Borthwick-Jackson after left-back was loaned out to Wolves last season

According to reports, the 20-year-old is wanted by Thomas Christiansen either permanently or on loan after defender was left out of United's pre-season plans

MANCHESTER UNITED defender Cameron Borthwick-Jackson looks set for a switch across the Pennines to rivals Leeds.

New Elland Road boss Thomas Christiansen wants the England age-group international in his ranks for a planned promotion push.



Borthwick-Jackson, 20, played 14 games under Louis van Gaal in the 2015/16 season before being loaned out by Jose Mourinho to Wolves.

The left back impressed under Van Gaal, but his lack of experience seems to have counted against him as Mourinho deployed under-fire Luke Shaw and Matteo Darmian at left back.

His loan spell at Wolves proved underwhelming though, with just seven appearances to his name in the Championship as Wanderers finished 15th and just seven points clear of the drop zone.

Leeds were rocked in May by the resignation of Garry Monk, after the former Swansea boss impressed at Elland Road before joining Middlesbrough.

Dane Christiansen has come in and plans to improve the squad under the ownership of Andrea Radrizzani.

And as the Red Devils headed out for their pre-season tour of the United States, Borthwick-Jackson was left off the plane, being left to ponder his future.
