Manchester United are understood to have opened talks to sign David Raum from Hoffenheim.

According to Sky Germany, talks are ongoing and going well. It's said that "a transfer can happen", but there's "still a long way to go".

Hoffenheim are said to be demanding around €30-35 million for the highly-rated left-back.

Borussia Dortmund are still thought to be leading the race for Raum, but they need to cash in on Nico Schulz or Raphael Guerreiro to be able to afford the signing of the 24-year-old.
