Manchester United is actively seeking a new left-back and has highlighted 19-year-old Jorge Salinas as a potential target. With a €16 million release clause in his contract, Salinas, who recently played a key role in Racing Santander's promotion to LaLiga, has garnered attention from several top European clubs, including Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.
