Manchester United are without a win in their last five games, conceding 13 goals in the process. And coach Ruben Amorim is already planning to strengthen the backline in the future.
Victor Lindelof is expected to leave the club this winter or at the end of his contract, and INEOS appear to have found the perfect replacement from within the Premier League.
It’s no secret that the new co-owners prefer young stars with room to develop, with Premier League experience an added bonus.
And according to Italian publication Tuttomercatoweb, the Red Devils are eyeing Bournemouth’s Dean Heysen as a potential option in January this year.
Hisen is the target
The two-footed centre-back has become a mainstay for Andoni Iraola’s side, starting their last seven league games in a row and contributing to two goals as Bournemouth remain unbeaten in this impressive run.
The Spaniard put on a masterclass against Amorim’s side in December, with Cherries winning by three goals and Huisen’s name also on the scoresheet.
And the Portuguese tactician was so impressed that he urged INEOS to sign the Spain U21 international as soon as possible, with an offer expected in the coming weeks.
However, it will not be easy to conclude a potential deal given Real Madrid’s interest in the 19-year-old, although Bournemouth themselves have ruled that the youngster will leave soon after joining. I have no intention of condoning it.
“Real Madrid are not the only ones interested in Bournemouth defender Dean Heysen. The centre-back, who was signed from Juventus in the summer for around 18 million euros including bonuses, has been linked to a number of big clubs in the near future. I will do it.
Real Madrid also like him
“Huisen also scored a goal against Manchester United in the 3-0 final at Old Trafford.Following this strong performance, the Red Devils themselves added his name in a red circle. It seems that he may be prepared to make an offer in the coming weeks.
“However, Bournemouth are likely to decide not to sell the player in January.”
The young centre-back’s move from Juventus to the Cherries came as a surprise, given that the English side paid €18 million for Huyssen last summer, with United also one of the teams eyeing him at the time. .
Manager Jose Mourinho had a lot of praise for the defender when he was on loan at AS Roma, and given the player’s importance to the Cherries, given his age and contract. , his departure could cost more than 50 million euros.
An approach seems likely in the summer, but it would still require a huge offer to land him.
