Alex Telles Set For Sevilla On Loan

Brazilian left-back Alex Telles is set to join Spanish side Sevilla on loan for the season.

Despite having four left-backs at the club, there doesn’t seem to be a buy option clause on this deal so Telles will return to the club next summer.

With Luke Shaw, Brandon Williams and new signing Tyrell Malacia at the club, left-back is a position United have increasing depth in.

This resulted in Alex being utilised more as a centre-back during pre-season.

With the World Cup on the horizon in November, Telles will be wanting first-team football in order to keep his place in the Brazil side.

The 29 year-old was recalled to the team in January after a 14-month absence from the setup.
