However, the Brazil international has struggled to carve out a consistent role in the first team since his arrival and has only managed 30 Premier League appearances in his two seasons at Old Trafford.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Previous Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer brought the 29-year-old to the club for his attacking ability from the full-back position and to also challenge incumbent left-back Luke Shaw. Prior to joining the Red Devils, Telles enjoyed an excellent 2019\/20 season in which he had 20 goal contributions for Porto in the Primeira Liga, including 11 goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sadly those numbers have not followed Telles to Manchester as he has only managed to score once and assist eight times in all competitions during his two seasons at Old Trafford. It seems that new manager <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/07\/29\/fabrizio-romano-manchester-united-benjamin-sesko\/\" target=\"_self\">Erik ten Hag<\/a> has made the decision to move on from the Brazilian in favour of Shaw and new signing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutd.com\/en\/news\/detail\/tyrell-malacia-completes-move-to-manchester-united\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tyrell Malacia<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A change of scenery could be enough for Telles to reignite the excellent form that earned him a move to Manchester. However, at least for now, all signs are pointing towards the defender\u2019s future being away from Old Trafford.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>A Busy Summer for United<\/h3>\n<p>United have been busy rejuvenating their squad this summer following a disappointing 2021\/22 season which saw them finish sixth in the Premier League missing out on Champions League football for the coming campaign.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Malacia, the club have signed veteran midfielder <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutd.com\/en\/news\/detail\/transfer-news-man-utd-complete-signing-of-christian-eriksen\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Christian Eriksen<\/a> following his impressive half-season back in the Premier League with <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/02\/mikkel-damsgaard-brentford-sampdoria\/\" target=\"_self\">Brentford<\/a>.
