Manchester United have failed with a €50 million offer to sign Alejandro Balde as Barcelona do not consider the left-back for sale.
According to Fichajes, Manchester United have reportedly failed with an offer to sign Alejandro Balde. The Red Devils seemingly launched a €50 million proposal to test Barcelona’s resolve over their key star, as the Catalans have stated the left-back is not for sale ahead of the summer window.
Manchester United are set for a testing summer window, as Ruben Amorim, together with INEOS must find the right solutions for the squad. There are plenty of requirements in this team to make it stronger and in a position to improve next season, as the club will have to spend considerably to make things better.
The Red Devils are in some level of financial constraints that may prevent a fluid operation in the summer from a financial standpoint. The widespread suggestion is that Manchester United may have to sell before they can spend heavily in the upcoming window, as there are a few players they want to get rid of.
On the subject of the players Manchester United want to sign, Alejandro Balde’s name has been mentioned more than once over the last couple of months. The Red Devils like the Barcelona star and were prepared to make a considerable financial effort to bring him to Old Trafford.
There were reports Manchester United were open to selling Alejandro Ganrnacho to fund a move for Balde. While the full-back remains a key part of Barcelona’s plans, the Spanish side’s ongoing issues with finances may point towards the possibility of selling a few of their vital stars to bring in the funds to ease through their problems.
Barcelona reject Manchester United’s bid for Alejandro Balde
The main story is about Manchester United failing with a €50 million offer for Balde, with Barcelona insisting the player is not for sale. Hansi Flick will be an unhappy man if the club ends up selling the left-back who has been one of the top performers this season, as he has come strongly at the back of last season when he had lost form in light of key injury issues.
Barcelona views Balde as a key component for their immediate future and are not keen to consider offers coming in for the player in the summer. Manchester United will have to look elsewhere to solve their left-back recruitment, as Balde is certainly a player out of their reach.
