Ecuadorian midfielder Moises Caicedo is a January target for Manchester United.
The Manchester Evening News says United are interested in signing Caicedo from Independiente del Valle in the January transfer window as part of a new recruitment strategy.
United want to sign Caicedo, 19, so he can move to Manchester in the New Year due to new work permit regulations.
United have decided to pursue the highest-rated teenage talents around the world, having previously preferred to pursue long-term targets aged between 23 and 28.
Caicedo only turned 19 last month but made his Ecuador debut in October and has attained four senior caps, starting in their last four World Cup qualifiers.
United agreed deals for teenage wingers Facundo Pellistri and Amad Diallo on deadline day in October, with the 18-year-old Diallo due to move to Manchester from Atalanta next month.
