So, the 31-year-old\u2019s future is uncertain at United.<\/p>\n<p>The Red Devils purchased Patrick Dorgu from Lecce last year as a potential long-term replacement for Shaw, but the Dane has impressed more as a forward rather than a fullback.<\/p>\n<p>Man Utd also have Harry Amass and Diego Leon as options to deploy in the left-back position. However, the duo are still very young and aren\u2019t ready to play at the highest level yet.<\/p>\n<p>Now, <em>The Guardian<\/em> report that despite already purchasing Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos, Michael Carrick is keen on signing a third midfielder this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the 44-year-old wants a new left-back to compete with Shaw. United are interested in signing Robinson and have been monitoring his situation before making a potential swoop.<\/p>\n<h2>Hall to Man Utd<\/h2>\n<p>However, the USA international is set to turn 29 next month, and United ideally want a young option. Therefore, they have also been keeping a close eye on <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/newcastle-united\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"27\" title=\"Newcastle United news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Newcastle United<\/a> star Lewis Hall.<\/p>\n<p>Robinson is valued at around \u00a319m by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.com\/antonee-robinson\/profil\/spieler\/349701\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Transfermarkt<\/span><\/a> and has entered the final two years of his current contract. So, the Cottagers are in a strong position to demand a sizable amount of money if they are forced to cash-in on him this summer.<\/p>\n<p>The Fulham star is quick, strong, good in the air, comfortable playing out from the back, can deliver excellent crosses from the flanks, and is efficient in defensive contributions.<\/p>\n<p>He is a <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/premier-league\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"21\" title=\"Premier League\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Premier League<\/a>-proven player and is currently at the prime stage of his career. So, he might be a shrewd acquisition for Man Utd should they purchase him.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is going to be interesting to see whether the 20-time English champions eventually make a concrete approach to secure his services this summer.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--mvp-post-tags--><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--posts-nav-link--><\/p>\n<div class=\"mvp-org-wrap\" itemprop=\"publisher\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n<div class=\"mvp-org-logo\" itemprop=\"logo\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"50\" src=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new-logo.png\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new-logo.png\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!--mvp-org-logo--><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Football Talk | Premier League News\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!--mvp-org-wrap-->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/235445\/man-utd-eye-move-to-sign-fulham-star-antonee-robinson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United are reportedly planning to make a move to sign Fulham defender Antonee Robinson, as per The Guardian.
