Murillo is among the players being considered by Manchester United as they seek a new central defender for next season.
The Nottingham Forest player has established himself as one of the best young defenders in the Premier League since moving to the City Ground in 2023 and has long been admired by the wealthiest clubs in the country.
As Daily Mail Sport revealed in December, Murillo is open to leaving Forest next summer despite signing a new, improved four-and-a-half-year deal in January 2025.
And it is understood the Brazilian is prominent on United’s radar as they prepare for the departure of Harry Maguire.
