Manchester United will make a summer move for Borussia Dortmund's 18-year-old English winger Jadon Sancho. The Premier League club were also contacted by Barcelona over the possibility of signing Brazilian midfielder Philippe Coutinho.
Always promising when you are contacted by another club in the hopes you will buy their player. :lol:
Just screams 'unmissable signing!' doesn't it...

Metro: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants Manchester United to sanction deal for PSG star Adrien Rabiot to replace Ander Herrera.
Representatives from United seen at PSG.

Not sure it's a good idea anyway, but the notion we would let Herrera go is madness. Give him a fecking contract. He deserves it more than DDG deserves £400K a week, that's for sure.
The metro have as much credibility as the Private Eye.

Saying that, Herrera needs to stay.

I'm not sure about that, is he really good enough?

One thing to keep in mind is we can't make Ander stay, that could be a factor.

Because we signed Sanchez doesn't mean we will go after every other past it player. By the sounds of it, we have no interest in Bale and it's not the clubs fault they get linked to Kroos.
