Manchester United launch surprise move for new wing-back | OneFootball

Manchester United are interested in signing Pervis Estupinan with Brighton open to selling the left-back this summer.

Estupinan has emerged as a potential option for Manchester United given the Seagulls’ stance on the player.

Brighton have signed Maxim De Cuyper from Club Brugge in the current window and also have Ferdi Kadioglu as an option at left-back.

Manchester United are now prepared to explore a potential market opportunity, according to talkSPORT, but face competition from AC Milan.

Both sides have a ‘genuine interest’ in Estupinan, who made 30 league appearances for Brighton last season.

Ruben Amorim has targeted Premier League proven talent in the summer window, with the Red Devils having completed the signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves.

Negotiations are also ongoing for Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo, while interest has been expressed in Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez and Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson.

Estupinan is seen as a solid fit for Amorim’s wing-back options and would provide an experienced alternative to Patrick Dorgu.

The latter joined from Lecce for a fee in the region of £25m but endured a mixed start to his time at Old Trafford.

Manchester United have initiated talks with Estupinan’s representatives. The 27-year-old has two years to run on his contract at the Amex Stadium.
