Manchester United could dip into the free agent market to sign cover for Diogo Dalot - according to reports.
Having appointed Erik ten Hag as their permanent manager this summer, United enjoyed a successful first window under the Dutchman as six players - including Casemiro and Christian Eriksen - were recruited as part of an ongoing and much-needed rebuild. Eriksen, 30, cost the club nothing following his departure from Brentford.
Reports at Fox Sports [via Sports Illustrated ] hint that United could opt to use that avenue in the near future, too, amid suggestions they could move for Colombian right-back Santiago Arias - who is currently without a club. Arias, 30, spent four seasons with Atletico Madrid and played against England for his country during the 2018 World Cup showcase in Russia.
