Manchester United Could Lose the ‘Next Jude Bellingham’ to Premier League Competitors
United have had a difficult start to the season, winning only 10 of their 21 league matches. This has put significant pressure on manager Erik ten Hag, and speculation has grown about the possibility of him being sacked. The scrutiny on ten Hag’s recruitment has added to the speculation.
While United are checking on Swedish international Bergvall, they are not the only Premier League team interested. According to talkSPORT, City are also monitoring Bergvall’s situation and have been scouting him heavily with the intention of making a bid in the summer transfer window. Brighton are also interested in Bergvall and hope to leverage their reputation for nurturing young talent to attract him to their team.
Bergvall is highly regarded as one of the most promising young players in Europe, drawing comparisons to Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham for his impact in the final third from midfield. United, knowing they missed out on Bellingham previously, may aggressively pursue a deal with the Swedish side Djurgardens for Bergvall given the similarities between the two players. United reportedly intend to meet with Bergvall’s representatives to negotiate a deal.
The missed opportunity with Bellingham in 2020, when he chose Borussia Dortmund over United, could prompt the club to make a stronger case to Bergvall and his camp about the project and immediate opportunities available at United.
