Manchester United have opened talks with Lecce about signing left-back Patrick Dorgu.United representatives were in Italy today to discuss signing the Denmark international in this transfer

Amorim is still looking to find an answer to his issues at Old Trafford having adjusted his back three system to accommodate for the unnatural profile of Diogo Dalot on the left flank. Luke Shaw remains out whilst Amorim has also tried turning to attackers to fill the role.

The Red Devils, represented by Matt Hargreaves, met with Lecce representatives in Milan this afternoon, according to Sky Italia (via Sky Sports ). United are ready to offer £22.5 million plus £4.2m in bonuses for Dorgu, but that is short of his valuation.
