Manchester United targets Lewis Hall and Jorge Salinas for left-back

Summary

Manchester United is actively pursuing Newcastle defender Lewis Hall as their top left-back target this summer. The club is preparing a significant opening bid for Hall, who is valued at £60 million. With Newcastle undergoing changes after Eddie Howe's departure, United sees this as a potential opportunity to negotiate. As a backup option, Racing Santander's Jorge Salinas has emerged, especially following his standout performance in the UEFA European Under-19 Championship. However, Barcelona is reportedly keen on Salinas as well, complicating United's potential move.
