Jorge Sampaoli wants Alex Telles for Flamengo

Jorge Sampaoli wants Alex Telles, as his new left-back for Flamengo. The Argentinian coach has recently signed a deal to become Flamengo’s new coach, and he intends to rebuild the Brazilian team, Telles is one of the many names, Sampaoli wants to bring from Europe to his team.

Let’s remember that the Brazilian left-back is currently playing for Sevilla as a loan player, since the fourth of August 2022, and the deal ends this summer, but more accurately the 30th of June of this year.

How was his performance at United?

Telles was bought from FC Porto for $!5 million, but he could never demonstrate his qualities due to the poor quality games he had. Leaving the coaches he was managed, with a lot of doubts about if he can become the priority in the left part of the defence, taking the spotlight from Luke Shaw, who at the time was not at his best level and wasn’t playing that much.

Also, he had a lot of irregular games, which means he couldn’t stay consistent at the level he plays his games, and not staying consistent ended up with a flop from Telles, and terminate his time at the club with a loan to Sevilla.

During his time at United, Alex played 50 games between Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and Europa League, managing a total of 1 goal and delivering 8 assists, in the 3 seasons he is being a part of the Red Devil squad.

What happened if Alex Telles returned to United?

First of all, with the incorporation and the performance, Malacia is doing at the club, the Brazilian will not be considered an option for games that are not for domestic cups. Also, there is Luke Shaw, who is currently injured, but once he is back in training, he will become the first option for Ten Hag, as he has recently renovated his contract with the club and is a key piece in the plans of the coach.

Would you give Alex Telles a chance at United o would you let him go to Flamengo?
