Manchester United is actively scouting Lewis Hall from Newcastle United and Antonee Robinson from Fulham as potential reinforcements for their left-back position. With Tyrell Malacia departing and Patrick Dorgu expected to shift to a more attacking role under manager Michael Carrick, only Luke Shaw remains as the senior left-back heading into the new season.

Key points include:

• Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui could fill in at left-back, but United aims to strengthen their squad for Champions League competition.
• Hall, who was signed by Newcastle for £28 million from Chelsea, is under consideration, especially with Shaw’s contract expiring next summer.
• Fulham's Robinson is another viable option, although his future may depend on the new head coach at Craven Cottage.

Additionally, young left-back Harry Amass, who showed promise before an injury, will join United’s first team for pre-season, and his development is under evaluation.

On the goalkeeper front, a backup is also on the agenda. Andre Onana is not expected to compete for the starting spot, and Altay Bayindir might leave, prompting a search for support for Senne Lammens, who impressed last season. Radek Vitek, after a successful loan, is likely to continue his career elsewhere.

Analysts suggest that while Hall’s youth and potential make him a fitting choice for United, Robinson’s experience and proven Premier League performance could also appeal to Carrick. Robinson has been effective in creating chances and defensively, outpacing Hall in several statistical metrics. Ultimately, United may prioritize an experienced player to provide stability while allowing younger talents like Dorgu and Amass to develop.
