Man Utd and Brighton start bidding wars for the “next Moises Caicedo” after the….

According to reports, Manchester United and Brighton will compete for Oscar

Zambrano, an Ecuadorian prospect. Over the past 18 months, the LDU Quito midfielder has shown himself to be one

of South America’s most gifted players, earning comparisons to Chelsea star Moises Caicedo.

After a rocky start to the season that has put a lot of pressure on his spot in the

Old Trafford dugout, Erik ten Hag is eager to reorganize his team this month. The former Ajax manager needs to make

additions in every department, but he has a tight budget to work with in the upcoming weeks.

However, it looks like United is prepared to use some of its transfer money to

acquire young players, like Zambrano, who will grow up in the team and become extremely valuable. The 19-year-

old, who enjoys enormous popularity in Ecuador, might be moving in the upcoming days and weeks.

El Futbolero claims that United has expressed a “sudden interest” in signing

Zambrano, but they are not the only Premier League team vying for his services.

Brighton, who have established themselves as authorities on the South

American market, have also expressed interest in the playwright lately. If

Zambrano decides to move to England, obtaining a work permit is not anticipated to be a problem either, which

will be welcome news for United considering their urgent need for reinforcements.

In addition, Luton Town is reportedly considering a bid for the midfield player after their initial attempt was rejected.

Quito is now willing to consider offers from the two new parties before reaching a deal to sell him.

In February 2021, United had previously lost out on signing Chelsea star Caicedo

to Brighton because the Red Devils let their foot off due to a perplexing agency

situation, giving the Seagulls the perfect window of opportunity to pounce and close a deal.

United paid a heavy price for this decision, as Brighton was able to develop Caicedo and then sell him for £115

million in the summer transfer window. Given the low risk of the deal, the Red Devils might decide not to take a chance

on Zambrano, especially since Caicedo would be the ideal complement to Ten Hag’s current midfield.
