Erik ten Hag wants to take Tyrell Malacia to Manchester United, the de writes Daily Mirror† The future trainer of the Red Devils is dissatisfied with his options on the back positions in England; Malacia must be part of the solution to this. According to the tabloid newspaper, United scouts were already in the stands during the game between Feyenoord and Olympique Marseille (3-2).

Mike Verweij and Valentijn Driessen revealed in the podcast on Friday kick off by The Telegraph that Malacia had been high on Ten Hag’s list for a long time at Ajax. Former director of football affairs of the team from Amsterdam Marc Overmars would have wanted to make an attempt before his departure to loosen the left back from the arch rival. Ten Hag reportedly wants to try again at his new club. According to the Daily Mirror Manchester United are willing to pay twenty million pounds (converted 23.8 million euros) for ‘the hungry, young player’ that is Malacia.

Ten Hag is reportedly dissatisfied with Luke Shaw, current first-choice left-back at number six in the Premier League. Aaron Wan-Bissaka, frequent base player as a right back, can’t charm De Tukker either. The Englishman reportedly does not fit Ten Hag’s playing style. Noussair Mazraoui would therefore have been on the list for a long time to join the ranks of the Red Devils to reinforce. United fear, however, that it will not stand a chance for the current Ajax back, as Bayern Munich have made him a much more attractive offer.

At the end of March, it was also announced that Olympique Lyon is relying on the services of Malacia. According to the generally reliable Feyenoord Transfermarkt Peter Bosz’s club would have left an amount of twelve million euros for the three-time the Dutch international. Last summer, Malacia saw a transfer to Club Brugge falter, with which he reportedly already had a personal agreement. The 22-year-old wing defender has made 132 appearances for the club since his debut for Feyenoord in December 2017, of which 46 in the current season. The contract of the back in Rotterdam will continue until mid-2024.
