Alejandro Garnacho wants to leave Manchester United but is not too eager on moving to the Saudi Premier League, even if it means teaming up with Cristiano Ronaldo. Al-Nassr approached the Argentina winger to suggest a change of scene and a massive wage but Garnacho wants to play in Europe. The same reportedly goes for his United colleague Marcus Rashford, with the England forward waiting for Barcelona to make a bid.
One United winger finally getting to leave permanently is Jadon Sancho, who has joined Juventus for £17.3m, only £60m or so less than they paid for him four years ago.
André Onana will miss the club’s tour of the USA and the start of the season with a hamstring injury sustained in training. With the other options being Altay Bayindir, who wants to leave, and Tom Heaton, United may be forced to sign a new goalkeeper within their tight budget.
Aston Villa are preparing to sign a new second choice goalkeeper. With Emiliano Martínez’s future still up in the air Marco Bizot could arrive from Brest as backup and become No 1 by next month. The 34-year-old Dutchman arrived in England on Sunday and will reportedly move to Villa Park on a free transfer.
After luring Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid from Liverpool, the Spanish side are trying to do the same with Ibrahima Konaté. The French centre-back has a year left on his deal at Anfield and that may bring a cheeky low offer. Konaté is said to be open to the move.
