SIR Alex Ferguson has targeted Porto’s Jose Bosingwa to solve United’s problem right back position.
With Gary Neville struggling to overcome injury and Wes Brown still to put pen to paper on a new deal, Fergie knows he needs cover on the right of defence.
Bosingwa would cost in the region of £15m and has been recommended to Fergie by assistant Carlos Queiroz.
United have sent scouts to watch the 25-year-old, who is known for his attacking style.
The player himself knows of Fergie’s interest and would welcome a move to Old Trafford.
“Being linked with United is a positive thing as it means I am performing well,” he said. "United are a sensational club.
"To play next to Cristiano Ronaldo, Anderson and Nani is such a big advantage.
"But until the end of the season I think only of Porto. I want to fight for the Champions League."

Quote that I am a Benfica supporter but this guy is very good. I really like Miguel and playing along with CR they are magical but the reality is that Bosingwa is at the same level attacking and defends better. For Portugal is a luxury to have both as any of the other positions apart from LB. Buy him but he will not be really on sale, Porto will want good money for him.
