Manchester United fans endured quite a dry and uninspiring January transfer window under Ruben Amorim.
Marcus Rashford and Antony departed the club, while not much was done to bring in attacking quality.
The 3-4-3 system under Ruben Amorim requires attacking threat from wide positions.
Alejandro Balde’s name is once again making waves in the transfer market.

After a slow start to the season, the left-back has since been thriving and enduring his best form under Hansi Flick.
He is a stalwart figure as a key player for Barcelona, impressing with his speed, attacking intent, and defensive stability.
His resurgence has not gone unnoticed in the Premier League.
Manchester United and Ruben Amorim are ready to submit a €40 million offer to sign him this summer.
That is according to Elnacional, who have reported of United’s serious interest.
Amorim values dynamic, attack-minded full-backs and sees Balde as a major upgrade over current options.
United only recently signed Patrick Dorgu for the left wing-back role, but Balde would be seen as the ‘ready-made’ option.
This would ease the pressure on Dorgu, allowing him to develop without being thrown in at the deep end.
Barcelona’s financial situation adds intrigue to the potential transfer.

Although Balde is a La Masia graduate and one of Europe’s most promising full-backs, United’s offer could be tough to reject.
A €40 million injection would help Barca address other key areas in need of reinforcements.
However, Flick is reluctant to lose a player of Balde’s profile.
His ability to push forward, track back, and link up with Pedri, Gavi, and Fermin Lopez makes him vital to the team.
For Balde, a move to the Premier League is an enticing prospect.
The league’s intensity and global exposure appeal to many top players.
That said, he has repeatedly expressed his desire to succeed at Barcelona.
His future now depends on several factors: Barça’s sporting project and United’s financial proposal.
Most importantly, the player’s own decision.
One thing is certain – United are serious about signing Balde, and Barcelona have a big decision to make.
