Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly mulling over a winter move for 27-year-old Fulham full-back Antonee Robinson.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Ruben Amorim is weighing up a move for 27-year-old Fulham defender Antonee Robinson heading into the winter transfer window. However, Manchester United will face competition from Chelsea and Liverpool.
Robinson has established himself as a reliable performer in the Premier League, and he is certainly one of the best left-backs around. The USMNT international is valued at £40 million, and Manchester United could certainly use someone with his quality, thus justifying their interest.
Luke Shaw has struggled with persistent injury problems, and Manchester United need a top-quality left wing-back at their disposal. Antonee Robinson could make a huge difference for them at both ends of the pitch, and it will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer to sign him next month.
Manchester United certainly have the financial muscle to pay £40 million for him, and the 27-year-old could be attracted to the idea of playing at Old Trafford as well.
Liverpool and Chelsea keen as well
Chelsea and Liverpool are keeping tabs on his situation as well, and it will be interesting to see if Manchester United’s interest in the player forces them to act as well. Chelsea need an upgrade on Marc Cucurella and Renato Veiga. The United States international could prove to be the ideal acquisition.
Antonee Robinson is well-settled in the Premier League, and he could make an instant impact if he joins the club. As for Liverpool, they need to find a quality long-term replacement for club legend Andrew Robertson.
The Scottish international has been an exceptional player for Liverpool concerning the club from Hull City but he is clearly on the decline now. The player is on the wrong side of 30, and they were pulled to replace him and bring in someone younger with more quality.
Robinson would be the perfect fit for all three clubs, and he would certainly improve them immensely. The player will be attracted to the idea of joining a big club, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. Liverpool will be able to offer him UEFA Champions League football and they are pushing for the league title as well.
On the other hand, Manchester United and Chelsea are going through a period of rebuilding under new managers. It remains to be seen what the defender decides if all three clubs come forward for him next month.
