The right back is not in Xavi Hernández's plans for the 2022/2023 season. Who is interested in the young North American defender?

He has everything ready to leave FC Barcelona. Sergiño Dest is one of the players who is not in Xavi Hernández's plans. The American had few minutes in the preseason matches and didn't even make the list for the start of La Liga. This situation has led different squads from the 'Old Continent' to inquire about the situation of the American defender.

According to the Spanish newspaper Sport, Manchester United is one of the teams interested in having the services of Sergiño Dest. The 'Red Devils' lack a right back, which is why they would not skimp on the price set by FC Barcelona. Erik ten Hag, Dutch coach, would be a key piece in the operation. This is because the strategist already knows the defender from his time at Ajax.

Another team interested in Dest is Chelsea. Despite César Azpilicueta's recent renewal, the 'Blues' do not rule out signing a full-back days before the market closes. The American is highly liked by German coach Thomas Tuchel according to the Spanish media.

Finally, there is Monaco. The French club had an interest in having Sergiño prior to the start of the season. The Ligue 1 team was even willing to pay 20 million euros for the full-back. However, the conversations between FC Barcelona and the Principality team have gradually faded after the failed operation of defender Vanderson.

Sergiño Dest arrived at FC Barcelona in October 2020 and has a contract until June 2025. Despite having a current link with the 'Culé' team, he is one of the 8 players relegated from the squad led by Xavi Hernández. Where will he go?
