Manchester United are reportedly exploring the possibility of signing left-back Pervis Estupinan from Brighton & Hove Albion as they aim to strengthen their team ahead of the upcoming season.
Transfer expert Ben Jacobs revealed that United were making inquiries about Ecuadorian International, highlighting the club’s intention to strengthen options on the left side of the defense.
Manager Reuben Amorim is ready to spend the summer to strengthen his team in many different positions.
After a poor Premier League season and not winning the Europa League, the Red Devils have realized that if they want to improve all the club’s standards next season and regain their European football position, they will need to make major changes to their summer transfer windows.
Man United identifies Estupinan as a target
The 27-year-old defender has been a consistent performer for Brighton since his arrival from Villarreal in 2022.
In the past seasons, he made 36 appearances, contributing to one goal and one assist.
His playing style, focusing on energetic runs and solid defensive capabilities, has been recognized as one of the best left backs in the Premier League.
Despite options like Luke Shaw, Patrick Dorgu and Youngster Harry Amass, the club looks keen to add depth and experience to the left-back position.
While some fans have questioned the need to bolster the left backspot, especially with recent acquisitions like the advent of Dorgu and Amass, others see it as a valuable addition that can provide competition and coverage during the tough season.
Reuben Amorim wants to make a big difference
Estinan has signed a contract with Brighton until 2027, and Seagulls have not shown any desire to sell it. However, United’s approach suggests they are serious about securing his services.
Along with the new left-handed defender, the Premier League giants are keeping an eye on the move where the new goalkeeper will replace Andre Onana.
As far as creative options go, Lyon’s Rayancerki is on the club’s radar.
