Manchester United scouts closely monitoring sensational French man

A significant factor contributing to Manchester United’s unfavorable start to the season has been the squad’s increasing number of injuries.

At present, it approaches twenty, and the club has been compelled to initiate an internal investigation to ascertain the underlying cause for such a lengthy list.

The defense has suffered the most, as manager Erik ten Hag has rarely been able to select his preferred back four. As a consequence, his squad has conceded the second-most goals among the best seven teams in the league.

United has fallen even further behind in the Champions League, having allowed 11 goals in four matches, which ranks them third out of the 32 teams with the most goals conceded.

United have been missing a key defender in Lisandro Martinez, who is expected to be sidelined until the following season. Additionally suspended is Jonny Evans, who has performed admirably since his return to the club.

The unimpressive performance and abysmal injury history of Raphael Varane further demonstrate that Manchester United require a defender immediately.

Jean-Clair Todibo and Goncalo Inacio have been heavily linked with a transfer, whereas The Peoples Person recently reported on rumors circulating regarding connections with Gianluca Mancini.

Bild (via Sport Witness) now reports that the twenty-time English league champions are considering a move for Castello Lukeba, a highly regarded defender for RB Leipzig.

After performing admirably for Olympique Lyon, the Frenchman was acquired for €30 million in the Bundesliga in the summer. However, it was initially anticipated that he would require some time to acclimate to the German league, particularly given the fierce competition for starting positions.

However, since passing the audition with flying colors, the 20-year-old has appeared in 16 games across all competitions. His outstanding performances have earned him an initial call-up to the senior French squad.

Furthermore, United observers are pleased with what they have observed of him thus far. According to the report, the English titans have dispatched scouts to observe the France international “again and again.”

Even though Leipzig emerged victorious in the contest after Lukeba was linked to United in the summer, it appears that United have not yet given up hope.

Although his present agreement is valid until 2028, neither a release clause nor a price tag are specified. Even as late as next summer, a settlement is “virtually impossible,” according to the report.
