Porto star Alex Telles has responded to rumors about his future, insisting he focuses on his job rather than Manchester United reporting.
The left-back has become Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s first target after Sergio Reguilon completed a transfer to Tottenham Hotspurs.
José Mourinho’s team reportedly accepted Real Madrid’s terms, which included a buy-back clause that United refused to accept.
However, the need for a left-back remains, so it is believed that Solskjaer turned his attention to Telles.
The latest reports claim that the Red Devils have agreed personal terms with the Brazilian defender and that it is only the transfer fee that needs to be resolved now.
According to Metro, Telles said: “I’m a guy who focuses a lot on work, people believe what they want, they say what they want in the newspapers, but the most important thing is to be focused on my work.
“You know it and so do my teammates, whatever happens, I’m focused on the club, I’m here, I’m playing.
“I have people who work for me, I just have to focus on what my job is.
“If I knew anything, I wouldn’t need to have people working for me. I have people who take care of that and I have to focus on my work ”.
Telles’ response is very rehearsed and one that many footballers in the past have used many times.
The fact that he hasn’t shut down the rumors completely is encouraging in itself and is hopefully indicative of an eventual transfer.

The noise from Portugal seems to suggest a move is imminent, but Manchester United will have to act fast to ensure players like PSG don’t steal it right under their noses.
