Manchester United has initiated an enquiry for Barcelona’s full-back Marcos Alonso, considering him as a potential replacement for the injured Luke Shaw. Alongside Alonso, contenders such as Marc Cucurella and Sergio Reguilon are being evaluated.
A decision from United is imminent, expected in the coming days, as the club faces a September 1st deadline. Prioritizing financial prudence, the club aims for a cost-effective solution.
Alonso, with Premier League experience, excels in attacking roles. According to reporter Matt Law, Manchester United’s enquiry involves Alonso, who features in a shortlist of three left-back options. Barcelona has yet to field Alonso this season, making a loan move plausible, especially with Alejandro Balde’s prominent role.
Former Chelsea key player Alonso’s departure last summer paved the way for Marc Cucurella. United is in touch with Chelsea for both Cucurella and Alonso. Sergio Reguilon is also being considered, although his current wage demands give United pause. Despite the options, a decision is pending.
The pursuit of a left-back to cover for Shaw’s injury showcases Manchester United’s strategic approach to squad enhancement. With a diverse array of candidates and an impending verdict, United demonstrates its commitment to staying competitive.
