Manchester United targets Lewis Hall and Adrien Truffert in transfer plans

Manchester United is revisiting a potential deal for Newcastle left-back Lewis Hall and targeting Bournemouth's Adrien Truffert as part of a major defensive overhaul planned for next summer. Hall, 22, has expressed interest in moving to Old Trafford, while Truffert, 24, is also on their radar. Elsewhere, Real Madrid maintains interest in Italy defender Riccardo Calafiori, but Arsenal is willing to sell only for an extraordinary offer. Meanwhile, Liverpool and Arsenal are eyeing Spanish defender Xavi Espart, but Barcelona is not expected to entertain offers below his release clause of over £84 million. Other teams, like Newcastle, are pursuing moves for players such as AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori, who will be a free agent next summer.
