Manchester United Star Has Move Blocked by Club

Manchester United Star blocked ahead of move to Turkey

Tyrell Malacia has had his move to Turkey blocked by the club, leaving him very disappointed with sporting director Jason Wilcox.

The Manchester United fullback has had a tough few seasons since arriving back in 2022. After a successful first season, playing 39 games and creating a bond with the fans, Malacia fell to injury after injury and has failed to find his way back into the side.

Why has his move been blocked?

There is a lot of speculation surrounding the situation. Malacia has been left frustrated and upset that his move was blocked.

Many fans believe that he is set to be reintergrated back into the squad after some time the 21s.

With Patrick Dorgu sidelined for the foreseable future, many beleive the injury is worse than that they first though.

This would be a huge blow for the Red Devils if true. Dorgu looked to have found his place in that United front 3, picking up a few goals including that wonder striker away at Arsenal.

Just as things were going right for United and Dorgu, they've taken a step backwards.

Malacia's situation

Malacia went out on loan last season to PSV, playing 12 games in 5 months, finally staying fit.

The Dutch international however found himself back out the squad on his return, featuring just once in this season, a 2 minute appearance in the Premier League.

With his move blocked, what does this mean for Malacia at Manchester United, and most importantly, what does this mean for Patrick Dorgu, will we see him any time soon.

The situation has gained a lot of media attention and shines a bad light on the club, something that has become a norm in the past few years.
