Overview
- Multiple outlets reported on Sunday that Manchester United are linked with Fulham left-back Antonee Robinson and that coach Michael Carrick is monitoring him.
- Robinson is a seasoned Premier League full-back with 215 appearances for Fulham, 26 goal contributions, 58 caps for the United States and is reported to be available for around £25 million.
- United's left-back depth has thinned after Tyrell Malacia left at the end of his contract and Harry Amass has just seven first-team appearances, creating a need for experienced cover.
- The Guardian has flagged Robinson’s age as a possible obstacle because he falls outside Manchester United’s usual preference for younger targets.
- No formal bid or agreement has been reported and a move would most likely be judged on whether United want immediate, proven cover now or a younger long-term option later.
