Manchester United Targets Atalanta Defender

Manchester United has identified Giorgio Scalvini, the Atalanta defender, as one of their potential targets to strengthen the backline, as the club seeks to add more quality and depth to their squad.

Reports from "Fichajes" indicate that Manchester United is also tracking left-back Antonee Robinson, while Scalvini is attracting interest from other clubs, including Chelsea and Tottenham.

Scalvini, 22, is viewed as a long-term option for Manchester United, especially with the team's need for a future replacement for Harry Maguire. It is believed that the Italian defender possesses the qualities required to play for a big club.

However, completing the deal will not be easy, as Scalvini is under contract with Atalanta until 2028, giving the Italian club a strong position in negotiations. This may push Manchester United to submit a high financial offer to acquire his services.

The report suggests that the opportunity for Scalvini to move to Manchester United could be appealing for the player, especially with the team qualifying for the Champions League, while the club will need to enhance its squad with more quality and depth in preparation for the upcoming season.
