Manchester United manager David Moyes has his sights set on a January move for Derby County midfielder Will Hughes, according to a report.
The 18-year-old has also been linked with Premier League rivals Liverpool since making his breakthrough into the first team at Pride Park last season.
According to the Daily Mail, the Red Devils boss is hoping to make the England Under-21 international one of the few pieces of business that he gets done during the winter transfer window.
New Rams boss Steve McClaren has resigned himself to the fact that the midfielder will have to move on in order to further his development.
