Transfer News: Manchester United star Alex Telles attracts interest from several European clubs
According to The Express, Manchester United star Alex Telles has gathered interest from several European clubs for a potential move in this summer transfer window. His future at Old Trafford is currently in uncertain waters, having struggled to get going since moving there back in 2020.
Man United have already deemed Telles to be dispensable this summer, having made themselves open to receiving offers for his services. It is suggested that he is likely to leave them ahead of the next season, especially with Tyrell Malacia being in line to join shortly.
Now, the Red Devils have been given a boost in their attempt to part ways with Telles in this transfer window. He has attracted attention from elsewhere despite underperforming since joining them, which could help them raise some much-needed funds through his sale, which can then be used to bolster their squad.
Telles to leave Man Utd?
Telles was promised that he would get the best experience guaranteed here at Old Trafford before he made the move. However, selling Telles is a great decision now, considering we have too many personnel in the left-back slot. That is especially the case with Malacia’s arrival, which calls for the need to go down this route when it comes to boosting our transfer budget for this summer.
Telles has failed to live up to the expectations in which he was signed from Porto about two years ago. Apart from some flashes here and there, he has not been able to pip Luke Shaw to the starting lineup even when the England international was on a bad run of form.
That shows how dire the situation has been for Telles, which makes this latest development a great piece of news for us. After all, the increased demand for the Brazilian’s signature would mean that we would enjoy more leeway when it comes to earning a decent fee for him.
Furthermore, a bidding war could take place depending on the degree of interest from suitors for the 29-year-old full-back. We had incurred £13.6million plus £1.8million in add-ons for signing him, so recouping as much money as possible should be our main objective.

Let’s hope that these unknown parties would firm up their interest with approaches so that a sale can be facilitated shortly. That would give us more financial freedom when it comes to pursuing other targets who are on Erik ten Hag’s shortlist.
