da blaze casino: It has been reported by The Independent that Manchester United are considering making a move for Paris Saint-Germain right-back Thomas Meunier.
What’s the word, then?
The 27-year-old, who is a supporter of the Red Devils, is an option for United in the summer transfer window to solve a problem position on the right side of defence.
In the longer term, they would like Aaron Wan-Bissaka or Kieran Trippier, but Meunier would be more affordable for now and easier to prise away from his current club, per the original report.
The Belgium international joined PSG from Club Brugge in 2016 and has since made 99 appearances in all competitions in the French capital but is finding playing time harder and harder to come by at the Parc des Princes.
Meunier is the ideal gift for the talented Diogo Dalot
Signing Meunier would be a smart move by Ed Woodward as he would be the ideal gift for talented 20-year-old right-back Diogo Dalot.
The Portuguese starlet has impressed in his first season at Old Trafford, however, he’s crying out for some proper competition to motivate him along his journey to becoming the first-choice option.
Currently only Matteo Darmian, who is firmly on the fringes, injury-hit veteran Antonio Valencia, and another old-timer, Ashley Young are providing competition for a starting berth.
Who would win out of Man Utd’s treble winners and Man City today? Fans discuss in the video below…
As a player of high quality and relative youth, Meunier would both give Dalot some worthy competition and also a figure to look up to, someone who’s won league titles playing for one of the biggest sides in Europe.
In time, this would improve the former Porto man and aid hugely with his development as they both possess very similar playing styles, you only need to look at the Belgian’s three goals and four assists in Ligue 1 in 2018/2019 to discover that.
The arrival of Meunier would also allow the Man United hierarchy to get rid of some of the deadwood such as the right-back trio mentioned earlier.
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work out that this deal is a must-secure for the 20-time top-flight champions.
