Man Utd can target other Portuguese teenagers after losing to Chelsea for Quenda

Wing player Braga Roger Fernandes is on an alternative list after Manchester United is absent at Geovany Quenda, according to reports.

Chelsea confirmed last week that they would sign Shift At the end of next season. It came as a blow to the Red Devils who hoped to reunite the teenager with his former coach Ruben Amorim this summer.

Quenda’s decision means that the club has been forced to see other options and Givemesport claim that the name Roger has been mentioned.

Like Quenda, he is very inexperienced. He was only 19 years old and only made 80 appearance of the first team.

Why is Man Utd interested in Roger Fernandes?

This Portuguese young man can play in a variety of different positions, after being used as a right -wing player, left -wing player, on the right wing, left wing, right -back and left back in his career at the youth and senior level.

This season, Roger has mostly mobilized on the right wing, cutting his left left foot. In many ways, he has a profile that is very similar to Quenda, although he may have a lower sky in terms of his potential.

Is another alternative for Quenda being explored?

Jeremie Frimpong by Bayer Leverkusen has been linked to switching to Old Trafford on and off for the past few years and the Dutch player is believed to have a release clause of € 40 million (£ 33 million) in his contract.

The fact that the 24 -year -old player is used as a wing back at the club level means he will be very suitable for the amorim system.

Because frimpong is available at a relatively small price, it will also make it an attractive target for the Red Devils, which will not have a large enough budget when the transfer window is reopened at the end of the season.
