Manchester United are reportedly tracking Rangers full-back Alan
Hutton as a long-term replacement for Gary Neville.
The Scotland international has emerged as a target for Alex
Ferguson, who is looking to add to his self proclaimed strongest
ever squad at Old Trafford.
The full back has gained valuable experience with Scotland during
their dramatic Euro 2008 qualification campaign and with Rangers in
the Champions League this season.
The 22 year old has also attracted interest from Liverpool and
Arsenal, but United are believed to be the front-runners for the
full-back.
The continuing injury worries of Gary Neville have prompted
Fergusons interest in his fellow Scotsman, whom he has reportedly
seen play a number of times.
England international Wes Brown, has deputised at right-back for
Gary Neville, but the centre-half is not a natural full-back.
Ferguson allegedly believes that further cover is needed and that
Hutton meets the mangers fastidious requirements.
Neville, 32, has been continually hampered by injury this season
after damaging his ankle back in March.
