Manchester United need to strengthen their team in the winter transfer window and they must also hold on to the key stars present in their current squad.
According to reports (The Sun), Italian giants Inter Milan are readying a two year deal to sign Ashley Young from the Red Devils when the veteran star’s current contract with the club expires next summer.
As per Mirror Sport, the 33-year-old currently earns £130,000-a-week and he ideally wants to extend his current deal with United, however, the club have not reached any agreement as yet.
Transfer News – Man United express ‘clear interest’, should move to sign £32.4million star in January
Young joined Manchester United from Aston Villa when Sir Alex Ferguson was in charge at Old Trafford.
Initially, he started in his preferred playing position i.e. left wing, however in the recent years, managers have mainly used him in the fullback positions.
This season, he mostly played in the right back position under Jose Mourinho and even interim boss Solskjaer has used him in that role. Last season, another veteran in the form of Valencia was the first choice right back but now, he is nowhere to be found in the starting team.
United did sign young full-back Dalot in the summer transfer window but he has only made five appearances (four starts) in the Premier League so far. The Portuguese starlet needs to improve and earn experience before getting regular game time at Old Trafford.
In my view, the Red Devils should look at the future. The likes of Valencia and Young are past their best and must be offloaded next summer.
So, United should allow Young to agree personal terms with any foreign club this month and they should move to sign a proven quality right back, someone, who could serve the club in the years to come.
Give dalot a chance
despite Young been a veteran player, I wish for the club to keep him until the last day. But the way you are thinking, should Barcelona allow Messi to leave, or Juva to allow C ronaldo leave? guys stop these things. Mata, Valencia, Young, etc should stay. They have got the experience and skills we need to build our team.
Young is much underestimated and has at least two more good years left in him.
my opinion is that young and valencia are man united best full backs and lets not make any mistake of allowing them to quit the club kindly
United have so many good young defenders on loan , instead of buying expensive ones ,call back these youngsters if they are as good as I am led to believe then why not .
As it is United can’t finish in the top 4 then this gives the manager a ideal opportunity to test them and see if they are good enough for United.
They are playing in the Premier league so there is no reason for them to need time
Who are you people,watching ? The only reason he has been running around is because he wants a new contract and if you seriously watch most of the goals we conceded or other team get chances is when young is not even in position
Good riddance to more rubbish ,we seem to give contracts to all the rubbish like smalling,fellaini,now young ??
What type of Utd fan are you wanting these below average players
