Manchester United midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin is attracting Serie A interest.

Italian media sources say AC Milan are lining up a swoop for out-of-favour midfielder Schneiderlin.

The Serie A club are now looking for a replacement for midfielder Riccardo Montolivo, who suffered a knee injury in Italy's World Cup qualifier against Spain on Thursday night that is likely to rule him out of action for the next six months.

Schneiderlin has played just five minutes in the Premier League so far this season under new United boss Jose Mourinho.
