Manchester United have shortlisted Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell as a surprise option to provide Luke Shaw with competition next season, according to reports. And it’s claimed that Mason Greenwood visited Carrington on Monday to briefly participate in the transfer talks between United’s new recruitment team.
Andre Onana and Marcus Rashford were among the non-international players who reported to the club’s training complex for the start of pre-season.
Erik ten Hag’s two incoming coaches, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Rene Hake, were also said to be present on what strongly felt like the first day of INEOS-run operations.
While those players not involved at Euro 2024 and the Copa America started their pre-season regime, Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s new-look sporting structure got to work in the meeting room.
And, according to the Mail, Chilwell’s name has been raised as an option to bolster Ten Hag’s left-back department this summer after a nightmare 2023/24 campaign.
The 27-year-old could arrive to cover Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, who played a combined 15 games last term.
He already has a close relationship with United’s English contingent, especially Mason Mount, after lifting the Champions League together at Chelsea.
Deals are already said to be lined up for Joshua Zirkzee and Matthijs de Ligt, whose moves will accelerate once the Netherlands’ Euro 2024 campaign is over.
