Mikel Jauregizar Alboniga has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Man Utd, with the Premier League side said to be eyeing a move for the Athletic midfielder. Speculation is gathering pace as the club looks to bolster its squad ahead of a crucial second half of the season. While Man Utd and Athletic continue talks, no breakthrough has been reported. Chelsea reportedly may still have an interest, but currently the focus is on getting this deal across the line. In season 25/26, Man Utd are conceding 1.83 goals per game (11 in 6 games), which points to a lack of control in midfield. Mikel Jauregizar Alboniga would be expected to calm things down and protect the back line better. Speculation continues to connect Man Utd with Ederson, Robert Lewandowski and Vinicius while no fresh rumours surround Athletic. Want to see how the story develops?
