Overview
- Premier League interest has moved to enquiries for the 22-year-old left-back, with Manchester United, Manchester City and Aston Villa asking about his situation, though no formal offers have been made.
- Sources close to Alejandro Balde say he is not considering a move and remains focused on Barcelona, and agent Jorge Mendes has told suitors his client is happy at the club.
- Barcelona are not actively trying to sell Balde, yet the club could study a substantial bid because of financial pressure if the player were open to leaving.
- Balde is under contract at Barcelona until June 30, 2028, and he is expected to return from a recent muscle injury after the international break.
- Manchester United are exploring the market for a left-back during ongoing talks about Marcus Rashford’s future and are also tracking Fulham’s Antonee Robinson as an alternative option.
