Barcelona have set an asking price of €40m for Alejandro Balde with the player’s agent contacting clubs to discuss a potential move.
Manchester United have been heavily linked with the left-back, who has fallen out of favour under Hansi Flick. The 23-year-old has not started a La Liga game this season and Balde’s representative, Jorge Mendes, is now exploring options for the winter window.

According to El Nacional, Manchester United are not the only Premier League club to have been contacted. Liverpool are among the sides that Mendes has been in touch with, alongside Juventus, Borussia Dortmund and Benfica.
Manchester United are keen to sign a left-back in the winter window, amid Luke Shaw’s fitness issues and a lack of depth. Diogo Dalot and Ayden Heaven have both deputised out of position at left-back this season.
United approached Newcastle over a deal to sign Lewis Hall in the summer window, but were unwilling to meet the asking price. Hall subsequently signed a new deal at St James’ Park and Balde has now emerged as a viable and attainable alternative.
