Manchester United's new manager Ronnick is very unhappy with the right-back players in the current squad and hopes to bring in strong reinforcements in the winter window. According to a number of British media, Manchester United has a crush on Brighton's 21-year-old rising star Lamptey, but his list price is as high as 40 million pounds, and the Red Devils do not want to be wronged.
Lampte debuted in Chelsea's academy, joining Brighton in January 2020 and gradually becoming the main player of the team. Although only 21 years old, Lampte has become an indispensable right-hand knife for Brighton this season. "Transfer Market" valued him at 18 million euros, and many British media believe that Lampte is the most eye-catching right-back in the Premier League this season. Due to his height of only 1.63 meters and his ability to assist, Lamptey is known as the "new Carlos".
After manchester United's new manager Ronnick took office, he was very dissatisfied with the position of center-right back. Main right-back Wan Bissaka originally transferred from Crystal Palace and spent £50 million on Manchester United. But now he's outnumbering expectations. Longnick believes that Wanbisaka's assist strength is not enough, and there are certain loopholes in the defense. Another right-back, Darot, is extremely capable of assisting, but there are obvious shortcomings in the defense, so Lonnick considered bringing in Lampte.
Lamptey's contract with Brighton expires in 2025, and after learning of United's interest, Brighton bid Lampethai £40m, which deterred the Reds. The lesson learned from Wan Bissaka, United do not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, which put lampai in a stalemate in the deal. If Brighton is unwilling to compromise, perhaps United will abandon the acquisition. Meanwhile, Two North London clubs, Arsenal and Tottenham, are also interested in Lampete.
In addition to the right-back position, United are also considering bringing in a midfielder. Lonnick wants to strengthen the control of the midfield, and the existing configuration does not meet his requirements for the time being. United's targets are Zakaria and Amado Hydala, but whether they can reach a deal in the winter window, I am afraid that Manchester United will first need to clean up the existing redundant staff.
