If you read the British press only and don't check the original sources, you might get the idea that Alejandro Balde would like to play for Manchester United one day.
Metro: "Barcelona starlet Alejandro Balde names Manchester United as the only other club he would join"
Sports Brief: "Barcelona superstar admits Man United are the only other club he would join"
However, This news is based on a wrong interpretation of Balde's words.
In his interview with Mundo Deportivo, the left-back was asked to name "one club other than Barcelona" and Balde said Man United.
By that, the Spanish reporters usually mean the club a player likes or supports, not a club they'd like to play for.
The 19-year-old has already confirmed that his absolute priority is to extend his contract and continue at Camp Nou. And even if we were to imagine him leaving, Balde would definitely have better offers on the table.
