Jadon Sancho remains Manchester United’s No 1 target but time is now working against the Red Devils with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer eager to acquire a new winger and left-back before the deadline. Ousmane Dembele could therefore represent an interesting alternative.

Barcelona are in need of cash to boost their own deals elsewhere, with Ronald Koeman keen to revamp his squad at the Nou Camp. Solskjaer wants a new left-back too, with Alex Telles seemingly the first choice. 

Here are the latest news, rumours and updates surrounding deals at Old Trafford.

AN ALTERNATIVE FOR SANCHO?

Chelsea have reportedly put N’golo Kante, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Antonio Rudiger and Callum Hudson-Odoi all up for sale, according to various media reports.

The Daily Express claims manager Frank Lampard is keen to sign Declan Rice from West Ham and is willing to sell the quartet to fund the rumoured £80 million transfer. 

Hudson-Odoi is a player United have considered in the past, and with moves for Jadon Sancho and Ousmane Dembele looking less likely everyday could Hudson-Odoi be a cheaper, long term alternative?

‘WE WANT SMALLING’ SAYS FONSECA

“At the moment, we’ve not had any bids up to the level that we want. That [Smalling’s valuation] is not down to me, is it? I’m not the one negotiating between the clubs, but we haven’t had sufficient bids there and that’s it.”

That’s the view of Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, on a potential move for centre-back Chris Smalling. 

Smalling spent last season on loan at Roma and the Italian side are keen to sign the 30-year-old permenantly. 

A first offer of £11 million was rejected out of hand by United and this is probably the offer that Solskjaer is talking about above.

The Guardian meanwhile are reporting that United want at least £18 million for Smalling and that Roma are preparing a second bid for the defender. 

“We’re working to get Smalling here,” said Roma’s manager, Paulo Fonseca, “I’m in contact with him and I spoke to him yesterday. He wants to be here and we want him here. He could join us in the next few days.”

LINGARD ‘LOOKING FOR MOVE'

Former Manchester United midfielder, Darren Fletcher, believes Jesse Lingard is actively looking ‘for a move’ away from Old Trafford after appointing a new agent in Mino Raiola. 

Lingard has fallen down the pecking order under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and is entering the final year of his current contract at Old Trafford. 

United have been tipped to cash in on the out-of-favour midfielder amid reported interest from Everton, Tottenham and West Ham.

Fletcher told Sky Sports: 

“It’s unknown. The alarm bells started ringing for me when he appointed Mino Raiola as his agent. Now you don’t appoint Mino Raiola as your agent if you’re looking at staying at a club. 

“That suggests to me that he’s looking for a move. He’s not a starter in Manchester United’s strongest team, he’s a squad player now. Yes, he’s come through the club and he’s been there a long time. 

“Maybe, he feels like he is ready for a new challenge and maybe he feels he is at an age now where he needs to be a starter, he can’t be a squad player. 

“It will be interesting to see what happens between now and the end of the window.”

TAGLIAFICO NOW ON THE RADAR

The Sun are reporting that Manchester United have reportedly identified £23million-rated left-back Nicolas Tagliafico as an alternative to Alex Telles.

MEN Sport understands discussions have taken place between United and FC Porto over Telles, but a deal is not quite as close as some outlets have reported.

Tagliafico, 28, could be United’s second signing from Ajax in the same summer, as a former teammate of Donny van de Beek.

DEMBELE STAYING IN MADRID

Ousmane Dembele was heavily linked with a move to Manchester United yesterday as the Barcelona winger was seen as an alternative to United’s priority target Jadon Sancho. 

A deal for Sancho seems to have cooled and The Mirror report club sources have indicated United won’t be making a move for the Barcelona man, who is set to stay at the Nou Camp this season.

ROMA STILL WANT SMALLING

Italian journalist, Fabrizio Romano, says that Roma are still in the hunt for Manchester United’s Chris Smalling after he enjoyed a good loan spell at the Serie A side last season. 

Romano says that Roma are preparing a new bid for the centre-back that should come in the next few days:

COSTA HEADING TO WOLVES?

Douglas Costa is closing in on a deal to bring him to the Premier League with his agent, Jorge Mendes, trying to secure a move to Wolves.

The Juventus winger had been linked with Manchester United but no formal bid was ever made by the Red Devils. 

Italian publication TuttoSport report that Costa is being brought in to replace Diogo Jota, who signed for Liverpool last week.

A deal with Wolves is not yet done, but it is close with reports of a fee varying from £18m-£37m for the 30-year-old. 

Certainly it seems likely that Wolves would pay somewhere in the lower end of that price range.

SOLSKJAER: GREENWOOD MUST IMPROVE HEADING

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Mason Greenwood must improve his heading in order to be Manchester United’s long-term No 9, after the teenager scored in yesterday’s 3-0 victory against Luton.

“The goal was important for him and Marcus, always as strikers. To get that confidence and feeling of scoring," Solskjaer said.

“Mason can play through the middle and also wide. Sometimes, it is nice to be out wide facing forward rather than being the number nine and battering ram. I think he will end up as a number nine.

“But for him to be a number nine, he needs to learn how to head a ball. I keep telling him that. If he wants to do that he is welcome to come and practice with me.”

UNITED PROGRESS DEMBELE TALKS

Manchester United have progressed talks with Barcelona for Ousmane Dembele, report the Record.

The French winger would represent an alternative to Jadon Sancho, who has proven tricky to acquire from Borussia Dortmund. 

Barcelona want €100m for the France international, while United want to take him on an initial loan. A compromise could be struck if there is a right or obligation to buy though.
