Just In: Manchester United in talks with Barcelona over right-back swap - transfer



According to reports, Barcelona right back Sergino Dest may have a good week as Manchester United rumors persist about him.

This summer, the former Ajax defender has been linked with a transfer to Old Trafford, where he would rejoin with Erik ten Hag.

Barcelona might use the American player as a negotiating tool to get Aaron Wan-Bissaka from Manchester United.

According to a source in Sport, conversations have begun regarding the prospect of Wan-Bissaka travelling the other way as well as United's interest in signing Dest from Barcelona.

However, Sergino Dest is not playing as much right now and would not be opposed to joining a team not participating in the Champions League this year. He will be focused on both reviving his career and the World Cup.

The Athletic reported earlier today that United had turned down two offers for Wan-Bissaka from West Ham and Crystal Palace.

Because a deal with Barcelona would have brought Dest to Old Trafford, it's possible that United stayed tough in the face of that possibility.

Having a right-back with whom Ten Hag has previously worked would be beneficial in order to either replace Diogo Dalot or push him forward.
