Faouzi Ghoulam will be the ideal fit for many teams in the Premier League including Manchester United, thanks to his flair for creativity and impeccable work rate. The Algerian has been a central figure at Napoli for quite some time now and is quite easily one of the highly rated left-backs in Europe owing to some consistent performances for the 2017/18 Serie A runners-up.

The 27-year-old is well known for his attacking exploits and has a reputation for working tirelessly down the flanks to try and influence play on both ends of the field. The full-back will be the ideal fit to United’s inconsistency down the left flank and is well and truly capable of disposing Luke Shaw or Diogo Dalot from the starting line-up for that matter.

However, with Napoli gearing up for an exciting season under Carlo Ancelotti, it is believed that it will be in their best efforts to try and hold on to their key players to build on from what they achieved last season under former manager Maurizio Sarri. The Serie A outfit is expected to play hard-ball with United regarding the deal and the Red Devils will have to shell out a small fortune to try and make them think otherwise.
