Man Utd have clear stance on Julian Alvarez

Manchester United are not looking into a move for River Plate striker Julian Alvarez this month.

The Red Devils were recently linked with the Argentine, and it was claimed that they could trigger the £17m release clause on his contract.

However, according to Manchester Evening News, the club have no interest, and the speculation in recent weeks has been agent-driven.

United are likely to make a new signing this month, but the focus could be on bolstering the midfield department. Ruben Neves has been linked.

Prior to that, there could be multiple exits. Anthony Martial has been widely touted to join Sevilla on loan with an option to buy next summer.

Axel Tuanzebe's loan stint with Aston Villa has been terminated. He is now expected to join Napoli on a temporary deal without a buy clause.

Aside from the duo, Jesse Lingard could push for the exit door after becoming disillusioned amid his lack of playing time this season.
