United could chase Minteh despite his desire to join PL rivals, says Gambian football expert

Manchester United enjoyed an explosive end to last campaign, scoring goals galore and finishing third in the Premier League table. However, their goalscoring woes have resurfaced this season, with the team languishing in 12th place in the league table after five games.

The Red Devils failed to score against Hull City on opening day, as well as in the 1-0 defeat to 10-man Manchester City earlier this month. While they did secure a 5-2 win over Ipswich Town, United were held to a 2-2 draw by Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, while also stuttering to a 1-1 draw against Fulham.

The Red Devils were keen to add more firepower to their ranks this summer, but failed to do so after investing almost entirely in midfield. With the futures of Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee uncertain, the English giants could be tempted to strengthen the attack next year.

One player who waslinkedwith a move to Old Trafford in the summer of 2025 was Brighton & Hove Albion's Yankuba Minteh. Gambian football expert Baboucarr Fallaboweh has now suggested that United remain interested in the player.

United tipped to move for Minteh Minteh was linked with Liverpool this summer but the transfer failed to materialise. Speaking to Sport Witness, Fallaboweh insisted that Minteh still wants to move to Merseyside.

When asked whether the player should join the Reds or pursue a move to another club, he said: "I think Liverpool. He will still want to go to Liverpool.

"

"Depending on [how] Liverpool will activate that desire to still have him. Because right now, his situation has not been helped because he is injured.

If not, then you could have more justification for him to showcase his performance why Liverpool were after him." However, Fallaboweh also suggested that United could knock on Brighton's doors for Minteh, adding: "But at the overall situation, even if he moves, I don't think he will move outside the Premier League. Manchester United can come banging on their doors." "It's a big win for him to be associated with Liverpool."
