Manchester United have faced plenty of criticism for lack of strategy in their recruitment policy.
The new INEOS regime aims to target a specific type of player.
In particular, young and low-cost.
As seen at Chelsea, the method of signing young talent for the future can pay dividends.
It is evident that United are actively searching for a left wing-back to provide Ruben Amorim with options.
Tyrell Malacia has so far failed to live up to expectations, albeit due to his injury problems.
Malacia could leave the club with interest elsewhere.
Luke Shaw is another, whose fitness issues have persisted.
This leaves the squad short in the left wing-back position.
However, the club aim to bring in a natural left-footer to provide balance.

United have been linked with Lecce’s Patrick Dorgu as a potential solution.
According to GiveMeSport, United have received a boost in their pursuit of the 20-year-old.
The report claims Dorgu would find it hard to turn down a move to Old Trafford.
United could accelerate their interest in the left-back ahead of the January window.
Dorgu’s versatility allows him to play as both a left-back and winger.
His arrival would provide Amorim a player of different profile to what the club already hold.
Diogo Dalot has shown to fill in when required.
However, the Portuguese is often best utilised on the right side of defence.
The Premier League represents an attractive challenge for the young talent.
United’s status and aims of becoming a top side could be key in convincing him to join.
Dorgu has impressed in Serie A and is attracting interest from multiple clubs.
Lecce may not want to lose him, but a significant offer could change their stance.
United are well-positioned financially to meet his £30 million valuation.
Scouts at United previously paid a visit to see the Dane in action against Juventus.
Gone are the days when the Red Devils would target ready made options, such as Alex Telles and Sergio Reguilon.
