Manchester United have sent scouts to watch Benfica Defender Ezequiel Garay along with teammate Nicolas Gaitan when they played against FC Porto at the weekend.
Garay, a former Real Madrid player is believed to be the man to replace Rio Ferdinand once he retires from football. A move for Garay however could be an expensive move with the Portuguese giant ready to increase their asking price.
The 11 time Argentine international has made a solid start to the season making 12 league appearances and also making 5 appearances in the Champions League where they were eventually knocked out of the tournament in the group stage.
