According to a report from Reprezentacija, the German team is willing to sell him immediately for a profit, and the contract value could be around 30 million euros. Chelsea and Manchester United have already made contact to sign him.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea and Manchester United could use more quality players in their wings, and the 18-year-old could be a solid long-term signing. He will add goals, creativity and unpredictability in the final third. The opportunity to move to England could be exciting for him. Chelsea and Manchester United are elite clubs and they could develop him into a future star.<\/p>\n<p>However, Alajbegovic should aim to join a club that offers him regular chances. Sitting on the bench at a big club could have a negative impact on his development. If Chelsea or Manchester United are unable to provide him with the security he needs, it would be ideal for him to return to his former club in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>The 18-year-old should focus on his development for now. He is a promising player and will have a good chance of joining a big club in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Alaybegovic is a left-sided winger but is versatile enough to play on either flank. He has 11 goals and three assists in all competitions this season.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United&#8217;s Bruno Fernandes partes ways with Chelsea&#8217;s Reece James during the Premier League match between Manchester United and Chelsea at Old Trafford in Manchester, England on September 20, 2025.
