Dorgu agent to meet four Serie A clubs but Man United have advantage on location | OneFootball

The agent of Lecce wideman Patrick Dorgu is expected to arrive in Milan to meet with a series of interested Serie A clubs, but Manchester United are also waiting in the background and could take advantage of the agent’s place of residence.

According to multiple outlets in Italy, Pantaleo Corvino, director of football at Lecce, is currently in Milan to meet with four Serie A clubs interested in snapping up a deal for Dorgu. The player’s agent is expected to join him according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

Juventus, Napoli, Inter and Milan are among the Serie A clubs vying to secure Dorgu’s signature according to Monday’s update.

Manchester United are also in the mix to sign Dorgu in the next transfer window according to several reports on Monday. Dorgu’s agent, Kingsley Ogbodo is based in the UK full-time, specifically in Manchester, which is convenient for United if they are to continue their pursuit of the versatile 20-year-old.

Monday’s reports claim that Lecce have no interest in selling in January, but there are at least five teams hoping to wrap up a deal for the summer transfer window.

Alfredo Pedulla claims that Lecce will request a fee of 40m from the likes of Manchester United if they are to be convinced into letting the Denmark international leave.

Dorgu, who earned his first call-up to the Denmark national team in 2024, can cover in a number of positions on both flanks. He started out playing as a left-back for Lecce, but has also featured at wing-back, on the left of midfield and most recently on the right wing.
