Patrick Dorgu has told Lecce he wants to join Manchester United ‘immediately’ and instructed his agents to get a transfer sorted.

That’s according to Solo Lecce, who report that the negotiations for him have become a ‘tug of war’ between the various parties.

The 20-year-old has told his agents to get a transfer sorted, making it clear he wants to join Manchester United before the end of the month.

His entourage are now pushing for a ‘new contacts’ between Manchester United and Lecce to try and get a transfer sorted.

They want an acceleration of the talks, and the hope is that Manchester United and Lecce can find an agreement between the €25m offered by the Premier League team and the Italian’s demands of €35m.

The hope is that Dorgu’s desire to move to Old Trafford can force everyone to get the deal done, particularly Lecce. He is determined to join Manchester United and wear ‘one of the most prestigious shirts’ in European and world football.

He is still training normally but wants the situation sorted and has made his feelings on the transfer, and where he wants them to go, clear to his agents. They’re now working to make it happen.

United wants Sporting winger

Manchester United monitored Sporting Lisbon right-winger Trincao during the side’s Champions League outing against RB Leipzig, as per reports.

There could be several incomings and outgoings at United during the final days of the winter transfer window.

The Red Devils are working on adding Patrick Dorgu to Ruben Amorim’s ranks. At the same time, they are seemingly welcoming offers for Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho.

Further, Antony’s one foot is already out the door, as United have agreed to loan him out to Real Betis. Following the Brazilian’s exit, Amad would be the only natural right-winger at Amorim’s disposal.

Interestingly, it has emerged that the Premier League giants are keeping tabs on Trincao.

According to TBR Football, United scouted the Portuguese winger during Sporting’s clash with RB Leipzig on Wednesday.

The Mancunian giants also followed Xavi Simons but it is claimed Trincao was the prime focus of the English side’s trip to Germany.

After the 25-year-old right-winger failed to impress at Barcelona and Wolverhampton Wanderers, Amorim handed him an opportunity at Sporting in 2022.

The technically proficient forward rediscovered his confidence under Amorim and managed to bag 10 goals and 10 assists across all competitions during the 2023/24 campaign. In total, he managed to register 50 goal contributions under the Portuguese tactician’s tutelage.

TBR Football add that “United have been doing work on signing the former Wolves attacker since before Ruben Amorim’s appointment last year.”

If United focus on strengthening their right flank after Antony’s exit, Trincao could prove to be an interesting option. However, their priority may change should either of the club’s two main left-wingers, Rashford or Garnacho, leave.

In that regard, Simons, who plays as a left-winger and number 10 at Leipzig, could become a more suitable target.
