Manchester United will be offered the chance to sign Borussia Dortmund winger Donyell Malen if Jadon Sancho departs the club in January, according to Football Transfers.

Man United has suspended Sancho indefinitely following his vocal criticism of manager Erik ten Hag following the defeat at Arsenal in September. As a result, he has been barred from first-team training, and it is possible that he may leave the club during the winter transfer window.

In the middle of this, Football Transfers claims that Malen could be offered to Manchester United if Sancho goes at the end of the season. The Dutchman just joined SEG, allowing manager Erik ten Hag to go from Ajax to the Red Devils. They were also involved in the transactions involving Sofyan Amrabat and Rasmus Hojlund.

Dortmund are open to the possibility of parting ways with Malen during the upcoming transfer window, and it is also stated that they are interested in re-signing Sancho. Aside from a winger, Football Transfers claims that at the start of 2024, United might invest in a new striker and a new midfielder.

Malen has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs since leaving Arsenal as an academy product. Due to his irregular playing time at Dortmund this season, he could leave the German club when the transfer window reopens at the start of next year.

The Netherlands international would be a terrific addition to United’s squad because he can play on either wing or as a second striker. He feels most at ease operating from the right wing. United are lacking in imagination at this position, with Marcus Rashford, Antony and Facundo Pellistri unable to excel.

This season, the 24-year-old has 5 goals and 2 assists in 18 games for Dortmund. He would fit into ten Hag’s plans because he is a good dribbler with speed on the counter-attack. If Dortmund is interested in Sancho, a swap deal between the two teams could be a viable option in the upcoming transfer season.
