The Polish international is believed to be on the radar of the Premier League giants, and Torino president Urbano Cairo told Tuttosport that the club would listen to offers over the summer transfer period.
“He has a contract until 2017 and he is very valued,” he is quoted as saying by Metro.
“If an offer arrives that values him importantly then we’ll evaluate it, but by the end of June.”
Glik has been one of the Serie A’s star performers this season and it comes as no surprise that speculation has emerged of a Premier League move.
United boss Louis van Gaal is understood to be looking to strengthen his defensive stocks after he failed to settle on a consistent combination at the back this season.
According to Metro, Tottenham are also interested in the 27-year-old as Mauricio Pochettino looks to shore up a defence that conceded 53 goals this term.
However, United are believed to be leading the race for the centre-back but will need to move quickly to snare Glik’s signature.
