Manchester United Submit £25M Bid for “Monster” Danish Talent Patrick Dorgu
Manchester United have made a £25 million offer to sign Lecce’s highly-rated young left-back Patrick Dorgu, according to reports. The 19-year-old Danish defender has emerged as a top target for United as they look to strengthen their options at left-back.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims United have submitted a new bid of £25 million for Dorgu after having an initial offer rejected. The player is said to be keen on a move to Old Trafford and has given his approval for United to pursue the transfer.
Dorgu has impressed in Serie A this season, scoring 3 goals and providing 1 assist from his defensive role. He has been described as a “monster” talent and could follow in the footsteps of Amad Diallo as an exciting young signing from Italy.
United manager Ruben Amorim is eager to bolster his defensive options, with Dorgu seen as a potential long-term solution at left-back. The Danish international’s attacking output and defensive solidity make him an ideal fit for Amorim’s system.
While the £25 million fee represents a significant outlay, United believe Dorgu has the potential to develop into a world-class player. His versatility and two-way ability draw comparisons to Diallo, who has thrived since being given opportunities under Amorim this season.
With the transfer window closing soon, United will hope to wrap up a deal quickly for the promising teenager. Dorgu could provide an immediate upgrade at left-back while offering tremendous upside for the future as United look to build a young, dynamic squad under Amorim.
