“Active talks” – Man Utd discussing transfer deal with player’s agents in bid to fix problem position

Manchester United are reportedly in talks with the agents of talented young left-back Diego Leon as they look to strengthen for the future.

The Red Devils have issues at left-back at the moment after so many injury problems for both Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, so it makes sense that that position is a priority for the club in the transfer market.

Still, one imagines Leon would be being signed with a view to the long term, rather than as someone ready to come in and challenge for a first-team place straight away.
