Manchester United’s pursuit of Patrick Dorgu appears to be continuing, with The Red Devils desperate for a left-wing-back.
The Denmark international is Ruben Amorim’s top pick to replace Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia as he tries to find a reliable option on the left-wing.
The Red Devis have already put forward an initial bid of €23 million, however this was rejected with Lecce holding out for offers of over €30 million.
Now, Fabrizio Romano has reported that the deal for Dorgu is still going ahead, despite the recent rejections.

Manchester United talks for Patrick Dorgu
United are once more in talks with Lecce for the star with a revised bit being prepared for around the €40 million mark.
The left-back has already agreed personal terms with United, so the agreement with Lecce is the only factor holding the deal back.
To give United a further boost, Lecce have already begun sourcing a replacement for Dorgu, as the Italian club have recently approached Estrela Amadora.
Lecce have approached the Portuguese club for Danilo Veiga, a 22-year-old right-back who joined Estrela in the summer from Croatian side HNK Rijeka.
With Lecce actively finding a replacement, it shows the club are bracing for live without Dorgu, only making his move to Old Trafford even more likely.
Manchester United are in direct contact with Lecce for Patrick Dorgu again today, as planned.
Deal on. Terms agreed player side.
