Benfica has identified Tyrell Malacia as a key target in the final days of the transfer window. The Portuguese club is in discussions with Manchester United regarding a potential loan deal until the season's end. Malacia is anticipated to compete with Álvaro Carreras, as Niklas Beste is set to join SC Freiburg. At Benfica, Malacia would reunite with former Feyenoord teammates Orkun Kökcü and Fredrik Aursnes. It is reported that Malacia, who returned to Manchester United in late November following a lengthy injury, does not appear to be part of manager Ruben Amorim's immediate plans. Meanwhile, Manchester United is nearing an agreement to acquire Patrick Dorgu from Lecce, who occupies the same position as Malacia. The Dutch international, who transferred to United from Feyenoord for fifteen million euros in the summer of 2022, has also been recently linked with a move to Real Betis.
