Manchester United have reportedly seen an offer worth £42 million rejected by Barcelona for Alejandro Balde.
The Red Devils are currently having a terrible season. After replacing Erik ten Hag in November, Ruben Amorim is presently leading the team 13th in the Premier League.
Under the Portuguese manager, their performances and results have not improved, and unless they win the Europa League, it appears doubtful that they will make it to Europe next season.
In order to rebuild his team and retain all of his best players, the United manager will be expecting to receive funding in the summer.

However, given the Red Devils’ dire financial status right now, they may need to offload some of their most valuable assets to generate cash for the acquisition of new players.
Despite this, a report from Football 365 stated that the Red Devils are moving ahead of the transfer window, claiming to have made a €50 million (£42 million) “first offer.”
Balde has returned to Barcelona’s starting lineup and is playing a crucial role for Hansi Flick’s team after a string of injury problems.
Despite securing the services of Patrick Dorgu from Lecce in January, the 20-time Premier League champions are still searching for a new player for the left full back position and have their sights set on the La Masia gem.
For the Spain international, Manchester United didn’t hesitate to present an initial offer, which Barcelona instantly rejected, as they considered it insufficient.
