Man United closely monitoring Ander Barrenetxea throughout the season

Manchester United have been closely following Ander Barrenetxea throughout the season and could bring him to Old Trafford this summer, according to AS.

The Man Utd target has enjoyed a phenomenal campaign, registering three goals and 11 big chances created (five assists) in 29 La Liga appearances.

The Red Devils could use another left-winger as Matheus Cunha is the only attacker for that position at the moment, and he isn’t even a natural there.

There have also been reports that Man United see Patrick Dorgu as the back-up left-winger, but going into the season with those two could be suicide.

Barrenetxea has caught the eye at Real Sociedad with his pace, one-v-one skills, and ability to create chances for his teammates.

His change of pace and direction leaves markers for dead.

The 24-year-old recently scored the fastest ever Copa del Rey final goal and holds a host of club age-related records.
