Jorge Mendes Offering Barcelona Defender Alejandro Balde to Clubs Amid Manchester United Interest

Twenty-three-year-old defender Alejandro Balde remains out of Hansi Flick's plans at Barcelona, having featured just once for 12 minutes in the opening 11 matches of the season. Although the club were willing to let him go in the summer, the player opted to stay and fight for his place; however, a lack of playing time has shifted his stance, and he is now open to a January departure.

According to Fabrizio Romano, his agent Jorge Mendes is actively offering the player to several clubs. Among them is Manchester United, who previously showed interest in the summer and are looking to sign a left-back in January, with Balde emerging as one of the options under consideration.
