Nathaniel Brown open to Manchester United before Bayern Munich offer

Summary

Nathaniel Brown of Eintracht Frankfurt was a potential target for Manchester United as they seek a long-term replacement for left-back Luke Shaw. Despite Brown's interest in United's project under manager Michael Carrick, Bayern Munich has reportedly moved ahead in negotiations for the 22-year-old defender. A deal larger than €60 million is under discussion, further complicating United's recruitment plans. With Tyrell Malacia's departure and current options limited, United must now reassess their targets in the transfer market.
