United seem to be on the hunt for a new right-back amidst uncertainty over the future of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

There is a solid chance that Wan-Bissaka will depart Old Trafford this summer amidst heavy links to West Ham and reigning Serie A champions Inter Milan. Inter are believed to be the Englishman’s number one choice.

If Wan-Bissaka leaves, Mazraoui seems to be United’s main target to replace him. West Ham were thought to be on the brink of sealing a deal for the Morocco international after the Hammers reached an agreement with Bayern over the transfer fee.

However, it recently emerged that the deal collapsed because Julen Lopetegui’s side failed to find middle ground with the defender’s agent over commissions.

It was stated that the falling through of West Ham’s pursuit of Mazraoui opened the door for United to pounce and get their man. The report also noted that Mazraoui is waiting for the Red Devils as he wants to be reunited with Erik ten Hag in England. The pair worked together at Ajax.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano gave a slight update and confirmed that Mazraoui is indeed eyeing a United switch, with Juventus also circling around him.

Romano said, “Noussair Mazraoui has decided to give total priority to Manchester United. He would love to go to United, he wants the move and would love to be with Ten Hag. Mazraoui is waiting for United and an agreement over personal terms will not be a problem.”

“The crucial step is what happens with Wan-Bissaka because United will bring a new right-back only if Wan-Bissaka leaves. He has one year left on his contract and interest from Inter is true but he would also be prepared to wait for the next few weeks to see what happens with opportunities.”

“Maybe United can find a solution for Wan-Bissaka with West Ham because Mazraoui is not going there. The deal was advanced but it was never done with the player because Mazraoui was giving clear priority to United.”

As per Romano, West Ham pulled out of talks for Mazraoui after they found out his desire is to play for the Reds.
