Manchester United are weighing up moves for Chelsea's Marc Cucurella and Tottenham defender Sergio Reguilon as they look for reinforcements at left-back.
With Luke Shaw set to be sidelined for at least two months, after picking up a muscular injury, Erik ten Hag is low on available left-backs. Diogo Dalot deputised in another calamitous United performance on Saturday, as Nottingham Forest were beaten 3-2 after holding a two-goal lead.
Reguilon has not played for Tottenham since April 2022 and spent a frustrating spell on loan at Atletico Madrid last season. United explored signing the Spaniard in 2020, but eventually opted against it.
Cucurella is also out of favour at his club, despite joining from Brighton in a deal worth a staggering £62million less than a year ago. Manager Mauricio Pochettino prefers Ben Chilwell at left wing-back.
Manchester Evening News report that both Spaniards are of interest at United as the club look to sign a specialist left-back, most likely on loan.
It is claimed Reguilon's wage demands could be out of United's reach.
Ten Hag has confirmed interest in signing a left-back, telling reporters: "It can be [that United sign a left-back]. I think we always have to anticipate on situations. If there are opportunities then yes, but it has to be the right player otherwise we have to deal with the current squad.
"We went through the scenarios before the season and if it happened, we have the solution."

Manutd should be careful in buying players that other clubs are putting up for sales lest they become flop.

Amrabat is the only needed player at the moment and make use of the current young defenders for the injured left backs

If A.Fernández is good why not give him a chance to showcase his skills and hunger for the senior team. Honestly I have not liked the our management board the coach. I don't understand why he keeps not seeing the potential in the younger players and all he does is sell them. ETH it's high time you used your potato 🥔 head wisely. If FFP can't allow you to buy before you Sale, then go for the younger players on the plate already. Some of are even far better than other senior players in the current squad.
