The Blues currently have Ben Chilwell and Marc Cucurella as their left-back options, but both have been troubled by injuries this term.

Cucurella only recently returned from a long-term setback, and reports claim that the Spaniard could be offloaded for a new arrival.

Meanwhile, United find themselves in a similar position. Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are currently on the sidelines with injuries.

Shaw is touted to return from his muscle issue by May, but Malacia may not make an appearance this term due to his recurring knee issue.

Amidst this, it is reported that both clubs are on the hunt for a young left-back and Kerkez has been identified as one of their top targets.

The Cherries are not looking to part ways with the Hungarian at the moment, but they are likely to demand £50m if an enquiry is made.
