Man United to swoop for Brighton duo Caicedo and Mac Allister

Manchester United have put Brighton and Hove Albion midfielders Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister on their transfer shortlist ahead of the summer window, according to The Telegraph.

Both players were heavily linked with departure from the Amex Stadium in January, particularly Caicedo, who was reportedly targeted by Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool. Meanwhile, Mac Allister attracted a lot of attention with brilliant displays for Argentina as his nation won the 2022 World Cup. But having been resigned to parting ways with rebel Leandro Trossard, Brighton refused to sell any other important players for any money as they target a strong finish to the season. Trossard went to Arsenal and Chelsea paid a Premier League record fee for Enzo Fernandez.

Caicedo and Mac Allister stayed put, but they’re both being tipped for big-club moves again, and though Liverpool and Arsenal reportedly remain interested, it seems this time Manchester United will be in the race as well. The absences of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen have made their mark at Old Trafford this term, and manager Erik ten Hag deems strengthening the central midfield area a priority.
