Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing 24-year-old Crystal Palace defender Tyrick Mitchell this summer.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on HITC, Manchester United are now looking to sign 24-year-old England international Tyrick Mitchell from Crystal Palace in the summer transfer window.
Mitchell has been a key player for Crystal Palace, and the Eagles might not want to sell him this summer. The South London club have already parted ways with a key player like Michael Olise earlier this summer, and they will want to hold onto their best players so that they can do well in the Premier League next season.
Meanwhile, Mitchell could be attracted to the idea of joining one of the biggest clubs in the world. A move to Manchester United would be an excellent opportunity for him, and it would be a major step up as well. He will look to compete for major trophies with the Red Devils in the coming seasons.
It is no secret that Manchester United need a quality left-back, and it is no surprise that they are looking at the Crystal Palace star. The 24-year-old has proven himself in the Premier League, and he could make an instant impact at Old Trafford if he joins the club.
Manchester United need to sign quality defenders
Manchester United currently have Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia as their left-back options. While Shaw has been a quality player, he is prone to injuries. On the other hand, Malacia has barely featured for Manchester United this season. The Red Devils need to bring in an upgrade on him, and Mitchell seems like the ideal acquisition on paper.
It remains to be seen whether Manchester United follow up on their interest with an official proposal to sign the Crystal Palace defender this summer. Convincing the England international defender to join the club should not be a problem for the Red Devils.
He will fancy his chances of playing for a big club and Manchester United have the finances to pay him premium wages as well. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds. However, they are also interested in other left-backs, including Marcos Alonso.
