According to Mundo Deportivo (via SportWitness), manchester united They are in the race to sign Girona left back Miguel Gutiérrez for the next transfer window.
Man United currently have Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia as their specialist left-back options, but both are injured. Shaw has suffered multiple injuries this season and is currently out for a few months with a muscle problem. Malacia has not played a single minute this season as he continues to recover from a serious knee injury.
Given the unreliability of the duo, United could explore a new left-back during the summer and Sports world They claim that Gutiérrez is once again the center of attention and the club has been following him for months. The price of the Spanish is unknown, but real Madrid They have the right to buy him back for £7m this summer if they wish.
good talent
Gutiérrez has had a fabulous campaign with Girona, which has been the surprise in the Spanish top flight. The 22-year-old has scored 1 goal and 6 assists for the Spanish club this season, but he has also stood out for his all-round game. he has completed 88% of his passes in La Liga, which is hugely impressive.
The Madrid native is an attacking full-back who has created 12 great chances in the Spanish top flight, but he has also recovered more than 6 balls and almost 2 clearances per appearance. He would be a perfect signing for the United manager Erik ten Hagwho wants his full-backs to invest in the midfield and make overlapping runs.
United's chances of landing Gutiérrez could largely depend on Madrid. If Madrid signed him for 7 million pounds, he could demand a significant amount to consider his departure. Madrid could also make the decision to keep him in the squad if the club is unable to sign Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich, which could cost up to £60 million.
