According to the Daily Mail, Diego Leon, a 17-year-old left-back for Cerro Porteno, will join Manchester United in the summer after completing his medical next week.
After the young sensation passes the required tests, the Old Trafford club has already reached an agreement with him and his club, and everything is expected to be formally finalized by the end of next week.
Leon would be a valuable addition to Man United at this time, as head coach Ruben Amorim is looking to expand his left-back options.
Tyrell Malacia has yet to play at his best after only returning from a lengthy injury layoff, and Luke Shaw has been struggling with his conditioning.
The Red Devils’ left-back Harry Amass is expected to depart, and Leicester City manager Ruud van Nistelrooy is looking to bring him back. The 17-year-old has been named in the Man United matchday squad five times in 2024–25, but he has not yet made his official first-team debut despite being one of the standout performers in preseason. Man United wants to bolster in the position this month and is looking to sign Paris Saint-Germain left wing-back Nuno Mendes.
