United chasing two players from same club, representatives sent to Champions League game this week

Manchester United is reportedly pursuing two potential signings from the same club this week. The Premier League giants are considering signing striker Nicolo Tresoldi and left-back Joaquin Seys from Club Brugge.

According to TEAMtalk, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur both had representatives in Belgium to watch Tresoldi's performance in a Champions League match against Aston Villa. The Germany Under-21 international, a 21-year-old forward, scored 23 goals last season and scored again in the recent match, showcasing his goal-scoring ability from close range.

Tresoldi's impressive form has caught the eye of Premier League clubs, leading to United and Tottenham both assessing him firsthand during their visit to Belgium. Meanwhile, it is reported that United's delegation also inquired about Seys during their trip. The 21-year-old Belgian defender is known for his pace and athleticism, with Manchester United previously pursuing Newcastle United's Lewis Hall, but ultimately failing to secure a left-back in the summer transfer window.
