United have urged him not to make a quick decision and wait until the summer.
They would like to participate in a possible future agreement.
Gusto is one of the best young right-backs in the world and he has terrifying potential.
United need a reinforcement for Diogo Dalot, and Gusto would be the ideal option
Erik ten Hag’s possession-based system requires the team to play from behind.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka isn’t the most proficient on the ball, and Ten Hag could be looking to sell him in the summer.
Gusto has all the qualities to succeed in the Premier League.
In Peter Bosz’s 4-3-3 system, Gusto facilitates stacking and is central to his overall playstyle.
At 19 years old, Gusto has great tactical intelligence to deal with various situations. He is flexible in and out of possession and extremely effective going forward.
Ten Hag could use him as a reverse winger or tell him to blitz the outside.
United must do everything they can to convince Gusto, or else they could miss out on a potential world champion.
