Former Tottenham Hotspur star Jermaine Jenas thinks Manchester United should sign Jan Vertonghen.

The Belgian centre-back has officially left Spurs as a free agent.

And Jenas thinks the 33-year-old would be a good fit for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.

He told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I keep touting him around everywhere but I'm sorry, Jan Vertonghen on a free is the best free transfer centre half out there.

"If you can get Harry Maguire back on the right side and get an actual ball-playing centre-half as a left-sider, that little dynamic may change things for them as well and he's free.

"Manchester United will know what they're doing, they'll have a plan but defensively they're miles off it.

"I know how good he is. It baffles me when I see him in the stand every week because I know how good he this player is. I've played with him, I've watched him and on a free transfer, it just makes sense."
