In order to raise some money before Deadline Day, Manchester United is getting ready to sell one of their defenders.
In one of the most stunning outcomes in the club’s history and a new low point for Ruben Amorim, the Red Devils were eliminated from the League Cup in the second round by League Two team Grimsby Town last night.
The race is on to give Amorim the depth and quality to compete, though, as the Old Trafford team still requires urgent surgery before the transfer window shuts.
Defender in talks to leave, as the Manchester United fire sale begins
United has made significant offensive investments this summer, spending almost £200 million to acquire Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, and Benjamin Sesko, despite early worries that the Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) would hurt them.However, Amorim will most likely need to cut deadwood from the team to make room for fresh faces if he wants to bolster the rest of his team.
Tyrell Malacia, a forgotten marginal player, is in talks to move because Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho are two players who are up for sale and offer pure profit.
According to Dutch publication Voetbal International, Elche of Spain has begun negotiations to leave, with Lille and Roma both being mentioned as potential suitors.
FourFourTwo is aware that the Red Devils are eager to include a buy option in the transaction, so even though the Dutchman might only be on loan, a possible sale might still occur before the fiscal year ends the following summer.
Malacia only played eight games during the previous campaign. Patrick Dorgu, another left wing-back option at Old Trafford, joined in January.
The 26-year-old’s English career has been marred by injuries, as he has made fewer than 50 appearances in his three seasons since joining PSV on loan last season.
Transfermarkt estimates that Malacia is worth €8 million.
