Football Digest: Analysing Man Utd's failed recruitment<\/h3>\n

Manchester United’s late summer transfer priority appears to have shifted to a left-back, despite relentless cries for the club to recruit a new midfielder and forward. Luke Shaw may face months on the sidelines through injury, joining Erik ten Hag’s only other senior left-back, Tyrell Malacia, out of action.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir looks set to join in a \u00a34million deal imminently, with Dean Henderson completing a \u00a320m move to Crystal Palace simultaneously.<\/p>\n

But Ten Hag wants a fifth signing before Friday’s deadline in the form of a left-back and has earmarked plenty of options.<\/p>\n

According to The Athletic, United have made an opening proposal worth \u00a32m to sign Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella on loan until the end of the season.<\/p>\n

The Blues have responded by requesting a \u00a37m loan fee, which United have baulked at, but negotiations are ongoing.<\/p>\n

The report adds that Ten Hag views Cucurella as a good fit for his system despite a disappointing first season at Chelsea after joining for \u00a360m last summer.<\/p>\n

But Ten Hag has drawn up five alternatives in case he can’t lure Cucurella from Stamford Bridge before the deadline.<\/p>\n

A handful of the Dutchman’s United signings have been players from his past, whom he has come to trust at Ajax or elsewhere.<\/p>\n

And Lyon defender Nicolas Tagliafico is another after spending a few years together in Amsterdam.<\/p>\n

United snubbed the chance to sign Tagliafico last summer, opting for Tyrell Malacia, before he joined Lyon in a \u00a33.6m deal.<\/p>\n

But a year and a World Cup win with Lisandro Martinez later, the 30-year-old is back on the agenda.<\/p>\n

Lyon are said to be willing to do a deal for a loan fee or obligation to buy if Tagliafico is keen on a move to Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

Another former United target on Ten Hag’s list is Sergio Reguilon, who Tottenham Hotspur are actively looking to offload.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But Reguilon’s lofty salary demands are expected to be too large a hurdle to leap, making him an unrealistic capture.<\/p>\n

The Athletic claim Marcos Alonso is also in consideration, but his \u00a3170,000-a-week wage is also likely to be too high for United.<\/p>\n

Leicester City duo Luke Thomas, 22, and Ryan Bertrand, 34, are also allegedly in the frame.<\/p>\n

But Cucurella currently poses as the most realistic arrival, as talks with Chelsea over a temporary deal continue toward the deadline.<\/p>\n
