Man Utd Signs Patrick Dorgu for £25.2m

Manchester United have completed the signing of Denmark international Patrick Dorgu from Lecce for a fee of £25.2 million plus up to £4.2 million in add-ons, subject to visa and registration. The 20-year-old, who can play as a left-back or wing-back, has signed a contract until June 2030, with the option of an additional year. Dorgu expressed excitement about working with manager Ruben Amorim and praised the development plan set for him at United. The club faced challenges with injuries in the left-back position, prompting the need for Dorgu, as previous targets like PSG's Nuno Mendes were not secured. United's technical director, Jason Wilcox, highlighted Dorgu's potential and versatility as key attributes for the team's success. This signing is part of United's efforts to strengthen their squad in the January transfer window.
