Manchester United are intensifying their pursuit of AS Roma's Wesley as the January transfer window approaches. United's lackluster start to the Premier League season, managing only one win in seven matches, has prompted them to seek reinforcements, particularly in defense. Wesley, a versatile full-back who has impressed since joining Roma in 2025, is seen as a potential solution.
