Antonio Conte's side clinched a 1-0 win thanks to a penalty from Georgian winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

The 23-year-old was one of two players on United's radar during the match, Italian outlet claims.

Centre-back Alessandro Buongiorno was also being watched by the scout.

However, several Man Utd fans are not excited by the prospect of potentially signing both stars - especially Kvaratskhelia.
