A member of the Manchester United loan army has, on Sunday, provided an insight into his current mindset when it comes to his future.
The player in question? Alex Telles.
Defender Telles, of course, secured a temporary departure from Old Trafford last summer.
After the Red Devils’ transfer chiefs secured reinforcements at left-back in the form of Tyrell Malacia, it was decided that the Brazilian had become surplus to requirements, sitting third in the pecking order behind Luke Shaw, too.
Telles, in turn, went on to make the move to La Liga, linking up with Sevilla for the 2022/23 campaign.
And his time in Spain has since proven to be something of a hit-and-miss affair, with the one-time Porto standout having racked up 26 appearances (13 starts) across all competitions, amid an altogether trying term for the Andalusian giants.

And the 30-year-old appears to be open to such a prospect, having explained to Estadio:
“I’ve always said that I’m happy at Sevilla, I’m treated very well and now I have to play and do my best, which is the most important thing.”
