Manchester United are reportedly among the clubs interested in signing Newcastle United left-back Lewis Hall during the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n
According to journalist Alex Crook, the 20-year-old is open to a move despite becoming an important player at St James\u2019 Park. The report also claims Manchester United\u2019s technical director Jason Wilcox is a strong admirer of the England youth international.<\/p>\n
United are actively searching for a new left-back after another difficult season in that position. Injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia created major problems for the club throughout the campaign, forcing manager Ruben Amorim to use several players out of position.<\/p>\n
Hall is now viewed as one of the most promising young full-backs in English football. The former Chelsea academy graduate impressed with his energy, ball progression and attacking quality for Newcastle last season. His performances also earned praise for his maturity in big Premier League matches.<\/p>\n
Manchester United are expected to strengthen multiple areas of the squad this summer, but signing a reliable left-back has become one of the club\u2019s top priorities. Wilcox is believed to see Hall as a player who fits the long-term project at Old Trafford because of his age, versatility and technical ability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
