THE ALGERIAN STYLE OF PLAY

The Algerian International plays at the left wing back position in Wolves’s 3-4-3 formation and can easily adopt to playing at Left back racking up 2 goals in 37 premier league appearances this season and is a good option for Manchester United new left back position . This is a testament of his low susceptibility to injury making him as reliable as ever something Manchester United has been craving with Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia who were both injured for the most part of the season both missing over 30 games each across all competitions. The player would be a low cost operation of about 20 million Euros and earn a salary of about less than 1 million Euros a year helping Manchester United with their currently tight finances.

DEFENDERS LINKED TO MANCHESTER UNITED

Italian reliable journalist, Fabrizio Romano has asserted that Jean-Cliar Todibo, Antonio Silva, Jaraad Branthwaite, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Bradley Locko all being looked at as Manchester United crave for stability in defence which is one of the factors coach Erik Ten Hag attributed to the poor season. And according to Jeunes Footeux [via Sport Witness], the preferred choice for Manchester United new left back might be Rayan Ait-Nouri although no decision has been made as to that effect yet.  

MANCHESTER UNITED INTEREST IN BRADLEY LOCKO

Stade Brestois left back, Bradley Locko has also emerged as an emergency option for the club as the club seeks stability. Bradley Locko who has been reported to be wanted by West Ham  will be another low cost, low competition signing at the club. The player started 33 league matches this season with Stade Brestois confirming his low susceptibility to injury too. The French international has 3 year left on his contract after only signing a contract extension last summer but this won’t be a problem as 20-30 million Euros still being enough to capture the player’s signature which according to transfermarkt, the players only worth 10 million Euros making him another low cost option for the club.

Luke Shaw is currently back in training and we can hope to see him play as Manchester United take on Manchester City in the FA cup final as he race to be fit in time for selection in Euros squad with England. Luke Shaw was marred by injuries in the last season .
