Manchester United only want a short term loan deal for their vacant left-back position.

The Red Devils have been rocked by long term injuries to Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw.

Alvaro Fernandez is the club's only left-back, while Diogo Dalot can fill in there as well.

Per The Mail, United would prefer a short term deal, with Lyon's Nicolas Tagliafico an option.

The former Ajax star has worked with United coach Erik ten Hag, with United also targeting others.

Barcelona's Marcos Alonso, Marc Cucurella of Chelsea and Tottenham's Sergio Reguilon are options.
