Manchester United is reportedly setting its sights on Lecce’s rising talent Patrick Dorgu as the January transfer window approaches.
With new manager Ruben Amorim emphasizing the importance of wing-backs in his preferred 3-4-3 formation, the Red Devils are actively seeking reinforcements, particularly on the left flank.
Italian journalist Gerardo Fasano revealed that Manchester United could soon submit a compelling offer, estimated between €30-35 million, including bonuses, for the Danish-born Nigerian defender to fend off interest from Tottenham and Chelsea.
Dorgu’s versatility has caught the eye predominantly a left wing-back, he has also thrived as a right winger, showcasing an impressive three goals in 14 appearances for Lecce this season. Amorim reportedly sees Dorgu as the ideal fit to energize United’s left side, addressing a long-standing gap in their squad.
Should United finalize the deal, it would mark a significant investment in youth and tactical flexibility, aligning with Amorim’s vision for the team. The clock is ticking as the January window edges closer.
