Alex Telles Completes Move from Manchester United to Al-Nassr
Alex Telles, the Brazilian left-back, has completed his move from Manchester United to Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia. The 30-year-old will join another former Red Devil, Cristiano Ronaldo, at his new club. Telles joined Manchester United from Porto in October 2020 for a fee of around £15 million. However, he fell out of favor under manager Erik ten Hag and spent last season on loan at Sevilla, where he made 38 appearances and won the Europa League.
The move to Al-Nassr marks a departure from European football for Telles, as he heads to Saudi Arabia for a reported transfer fee of £4 million. Manchester United thanked Telles for his contributions to the club over the last three years and wished him all the best for the future. Al-Nassr welcomed the Brazilian star on social media and wished him luck.
Telles’ departure is just one of several expected departures from Old Trafford this summer. Anthony Elanga and Dean Henderson are also expected to complete moves to Nottingham Forest. Additionally, Manchester United is actively looking for buyers for players like Eric Bailly and Harry Maguire as they aim to boost their budget in their search for a new striker.
The pursuit of a new central forward has been a priority for manager Erik ten Hag this summer. Players like Harry Kane and Rasmus Hojlund have been targeted, but a deal does not appear to be close at the moment. Manchester United is determined to strengthen their attacking options and will continue their search for a suitable striker.
In other news, Cristiano Ronaldo recently claimed that the Saudi Pro League is better than Major League Soccer (MLS) after Lionel Messi joined Inter Miami. Ronaldo’s comments have sparked discussions among football fans about the quality of different leagues and the impact of star players on their respective teams.
