"Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, though, has clarified that Manchester United have yet to begin negotiations with Barcelona surrounding a potential move for Balde. Although the Premier League giants were interested in Balde at some point, it appears the club have made not made a move just yet."
"Barcelona believe Balde still has immense potential to become one of the best fullbacks in the world, despite struggling with a bit of consistency this season. Balde, for his part, also believes his future lies at Barcelona, meaning any move away from Camp Nou could require some convincing from Man United's end."
"For now, though, Balde is focusing on his recovery, looking to get back to the pitch within the next four-four weeks so he can be available during the final few matches of the season. Balde's recovery will also be crucial from the World Cup perspective, with the Barcelona star looking to become Spain's number-one left-back."
Alejandro Balde, Barcelona's fullback, is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury but remains a target for Manchester United, who seek to strengthen their defensive ranks. However, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirms that Manchester United has not yet begun formal negotiations with Barcelona. Barcelona firmly opposes selling Balde, viewing him as a future elite fullback despite inconsistency this season. Balde himself is committed to Barcelona's future. He is expected to recover within four to six weeks and aims to return for the season's final matches while preparing for World Cup selection as Spain's left-back. Barcelona has deployed Joao Cancelo as a temporary replacement during Balde's recovery period.
