Manchester United linked with Tottenham Hotspur left-back Ivan Perisic
The report has claimed that United have made contact with the agent of Perisic in a bid to try to do a loan deal for the left-back.
However, the Croatian’s representative has knocked back United’s approach and has not encouraged the former Premier League and UEFA Champions League winners to contact Tottenham.
Interestingly, United are also trying to sign Perisic’s Tottenham teammate and fellow left-back Sergio Reguilon.
According to The Manchester Evening News, United are looking into the possibility of signing Reguilon in the final days of the summer transfer window.
Luke Shaw is injured at the moment, and United manager Erik ten Hag is looking for cover.
It is interesting that United are trying to sign Reguilon and/or Perisic.
Neither of the two players appears likely to be a regular for Tottenham under head coach Ange Postecoglou this season.
Perisic has made three substitute appearances in the Premier League this season, playing a total of 67 minutes.
Reguilon is yet to make an appearance in the Premier League for Spurs this campaign.
Destiny Udogie is the clear number one left-back for Tottenham at the moment.
The 20-year-old Italian has played in all three Premier League matches for Spurs this campaign, providing one assist in the process.
