Manchester United have reportedly made their first offer to acquire Fenerbahçe’s Ferdi Kadioglu, with manager Erik ten Hag pushing for the move. Despite having Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia as left-back options, the latter has been out of action for over a year and hasn’t returned to pre-season training. This has prompted United to seek additional reinforcement in the left-back position. Kadioglu is seen as a strong candidate to bolster the squad and address the current defensive concerns.
