Manchester United are seeking to increase their scouting presence in the south.

The Sun says United is looking for a scout to operate down south to find more footballing gems.

The club have placed an advertisement on its website looking for an expert to find players aged 12-18 they can sign for the academy side.

And the role also includes occasional international travel to watch exciting new prospects overseas.

The Old Trafford side – lauded this season for having more homegrown stars in the first team side than any of their Premier League rivals – haven't revealed the salary.

But scouting roles within clubs can range from £25,000 to £100,000 for the top job.
