The 25-year-old has impressed in his 129 games for the Ligue 1 club, which saw him feature for France at the World Cup. It appears Kim will join Bayern Munich, but Disasi remains on the list for The Red Devils as a viable alternative to the South Korean international.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo credit: Daniel0685 on <a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2miYtGY\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Flickr<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CC BY 2.0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to\u00a0Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United remain interested in AS Monaco defender Axel Disasi, as their pursuit of Kim Min-jae looks set to end in disappointment.
