Manchester United are reportedly weighing up their options at left-back, with Inter Milan's Carlos Augusto emerging as a name of interest alongside academy prospect Oliver Scarles, according to EPL Index.
The report suggests United are still at an early exploratory stage rather than pushing for an imminent deal, assessing the market before making any firm commitment. Carlos Augusto, versatile enough to operate across the back line for Inter, is understood to be one of several profiles being considered as United look to strengthen a position that has been a long-standing concern.
Scarles, meanwhile, represents the club's in-house alternative — a young, homegrown option who could offer a cheaper route to solving the problem if United decide against a big-money signing.
Nothing appears close to being finalised, and EPL Index stresses this is United monitoring the situation rather than actively negotiating. Expect further names to be floated as the summer window progresses and United continue their methodical approach to squad rebuilding under their current recruitment strategy.
