Manchester United bin dey try make one last move before transfer window close, but the main target wey dem dey pursue, Alejandro Balde, no go fit join dem. Reports from Spain bin claim say Red Devils don launch late bid for the Barcelona left-back, but reliable sources like Fabrizio Romano don waka comot for that story.
Man Utd don spend about £150m dis summer to strengthen midfield, with Carlos Baleba, Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans all dey come. Dem also sign goalkeeper Karl Darlow and some young players. But still, left-back remain problem because Luke Shaw dey always injure. Newcastle United im Lewis Hall be the top choice, but e too expensive. So dem begin look at Balde as loan option.
Jorge Mendes, wey be Balde im agent, bin don make sure Man Utd know all the conditions, but dem only want loan, wey Barcelona no accept. Spanish journalist Juan Jesus bin talk say Balde to Man Utd deal don near, saying the player no dey for Hansi Flick plans and the club dey demand 50M€. But Romano don quash that one. Im say Barcelona want permanent transfer or nothing, and Balde himself want stay for Catalonia. Romano still believe say Man Utd go sign left-back, but no be Balde.
Sky Sports reporter Danyal Khan also talk say the reports wey dey fly say Man Utd dey look at Balde no correct. According to am, the only player wey fit enter before deadline na young Leicester midfielder Louis Page, wey be 18-years-old. The deal fit reach £10m.
So if Balde no come, Man Utd go rely on internal solutions. Harry Amass fit serve as backup, while Patrick Dorgu, wey originally be left-back before e don turn attacking midfielder for Michael Carrick, fit drop back. Noussair Mazraoui also fit switch to left side, but e need support Diogo Dalot for right. Leny Yoro fit also play right-back sometimes.
