Man Utd consider defensive addition as rivals work to secure 27-year-old’s future

The Eagles will be keen to avoid losing an established member of their squad, particularly with competition for reliable Premier League defenders remaining strong.

For Manchester United, signing Mitchell could depend on their recruitment priorities and whether they can reach an agreement with Palace.

At this stage, there is no confirmed indication that United have submitted an official offer. However, continued interest could lead to further developments as the transfer window approaches.

Palace will hope their efforts are enough to secure Mitchell’s long-term future, while United will continue assessing whether the defender fits their plans.

The coming months could therefore prove significant for both clubs as they weigh their respective options.
