Manchester United Prepared to Make Bid for Barcelona Wonderkid Targeted by Liverpool as Future Replacement for Mohamed Salah
Manchester United have been facing difficulties in terms of goal-scoring this season, particularly due to the lack of service from the right wing. Manager Erik ten Hag’s trust in Antony has not yielded the desired results, as the Brazilian has failed to register any goals or assists so far. There have been rumors of the club considering parting ways with the winger, although his agent has denied these claims.
On the other hand, the manager has had a strained relationship with Jadon Sancho, resulting in the England international returning to Borussia Dortmund on loan. Facundo Pellistri is still developing and is likely to go out on loan again, possibly with a chance of a permanent move. Amad Diallo’s future at the club also remаins uncertain, with some reports suggesting a temporary departure while others claim that the manager sees value in keeping him.
It is evident that Manchester United needs to address the right wing issue, and although a solution may not be found in the January transfer window, the summer window could provide an opportunity, especially with the financial backing of INEOS.
According to a report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, there is an interesting, albeit highly unlikely, nаme being linked to Manchester United – Barcelona’s young talent Lamine Yamal. The 16-year-old has made a breakthrough this season, featuring in 29 games across all competitions and contributing three goals and five assists.
Although Barcelona has set a release clause of one billiоn euros on Yamal, the club’s financial troubles may force them to sell in order to balance their books. The report suggests that Liverpool sees Yamal as a potential successor to Mohamed Salah, but Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea are also said to be monitoring the situation.
While it would be a significant transfer if it were to happen, considering Yamal’s potential and the potential backlash from Barcelona fans, it is important to approach this story with caution. The summer transfer window will reveаl whether there is any trutҺ to these rumors.
