Man Utd eye former Chelsea player to address defensive concerns

According to The Mirror, United have compiled a three-man shortlist for the left-back position, which includes Alonso, Crystal Palace’s Tyrick Mitchell, and Feyenoord’s David Hancko.

Alonso, who recently left Barcelona as a free agent, brings Premier League experience, having been part of Chelsea’s Premier League-winning side in 2016-17 and their Champions League triumph in 2020-21.

According to Caught Offside, the 33-year-old Spaniard is viewed as a short-term option and potential backup for Luke Shaw as his attacking prowess could provide additional support for United’s forward line.

“He has experience in the Premier League and he can help the full-back during attacks.

“The 33-year-old would only be a short-term option for the Red Devils considering his age and would mainly act as backup to Luke Shaw.
