Man Utd closely tracking Girona’s breakthrough star Miguel Gutierrez – but Real Madrid will decide next transfer

MANCHESTER UNITED are looking to use the January market to strengthen at full-back.

With the departure of Sergio Reguilon this week, left-back is now a top priority for the team.

SunSport understands that Manchester United have sent a scout to closely observe Spanish left back and Girona’s sensation, Miguel Gutierrez, 22, on multiple occasions in recent few weeks, including in yesterday’s 4-3 thriller against Atletico Madrid.

Gutierrez proved to be a pivotal part of the side’s late win against the Madrid side as they continue their fairytale title challenge.

Gutierrez is a regular in Girona’s first XI, playing 20 games since the beginning of the season.

In that time he’s managed one goal and three assists.

He’s also accumulated the most minutes for the side this season, playing every minute of every game he’s featured in and only missing one match.

Gutierrez is a product of Real Madrid‘s academy and featured nine times in the league for Los Blancos.

He joined Girona in the summer of 2022 and has gone on to prove himself as one of the most capable full backs in the league – his form this season being enough to be considered the best in the division.

SunSport has been told the Red Devils highly value Gutierrez because of his high football IQ and attacking profile.

His talents have also seen him be tracked by AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund, with the Germans having a £10.5million offer turned down in the summer.

Gutierrez’s contract with Girona lasts until June 2027 but the side could be convinced to part ways with the defender for £22m.

Madrid still hold the keys to the youngsters future, however, given they still own 50 per cent of the player’s rights and hold a sell-on-clause.

Los Blancos could either buy Gutierrez back to sell at a profit or easily bring him back into the fold of their own team if they were to match United’s bid.

Bringing Gutierrez back would also strengthen them in a sporting sense, given they are currently level on points with Girona at the top of LaLiga.
