He has fallen behind Jo\u00e3o Cancelo and even Xavi Espart, a natural right-back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bB\">Milan weigh January move for Balde<\/p>\n<p class=\"bB\">Mundo Deportivo reports that Barcelona would be open to selling in the winter window and would use the money to sign a centre-back, with Andreas Christensen injured.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bB\">The Rossoneri have already had one chance to sign him. Agent Jorge Mendes offered Balde to the Rossoneri in late August, shortly after Diego Moreira\u2019s arrival. The club turned him down because of the \u20ac40m asking price and because their priorities were a centre-back and an attacking midfielder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bB\">A lower fee or a more flexible deal structure could change that, especially with Balde\u2019s contract running only until June 2028.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bB\">There would be competition for his signature, however. Juventus want to give Luciano Spalletti the left-back he asked for in the summer, while Manchester United, who pursued Balde at length before the window closed, are expected to return.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Milan could renew their interest in Alejandro Balde in January, with injuries to Pervis Estupi\u00f1\u00e1n and Alexis Saelemaekers&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":638182,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[85,46,105],"class_list":["post-638181","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/638181","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=638181"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/638181\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/638182"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=638181"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=638181"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=638181"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
