Manchester United targets Antonee Robinson to strengthen defense

Summary

Manchester United is reportedly interested in signing Fulham defender Antonee Robinson to bolster their left-back position. The 28-year-old has shown consistent quality in the Premier League and is viewed as a viable alternative to Luke Shaw. Robinson's contract with Fulham extends until 2028, meaning the club may seek a premium if a deal is pursued. United is also considering other options, including Atalanta's Giorgio Scalvini. The situation remains in development as United evaluates their defensive needs in the upcoming weeks.
