Man United make contact over deal for Barcelona star
A member of the defensive ranks at La Liga champions Barcelona has made his way onto the transfer radar of those in a position of power at Manchester United. That’s according to market insider Fabri...
Manchester United have initiated discussions regarding a potential transfer for Barcelona defender Alejandro Balde, according to market insider Fabrizio Romano. The full-back, who has seen his future at the La Liga champions called into question due to an injury-plagued 2025/26 campaign, could potentially be up for sale at the right price.
João Cancelo, who has been Barcelona's preferred option at left-back over the latter half of last season, has returned permanently to the club, potentially making Balde the club's second-choice option. Manchester United, the leading club in English football, have reportedly been in contact with Balde's representatives in recent days, seeking to understand the possibility of an exit and the conditions that would be required. Despite these developments, Balde remains content at Camp Nou.
