  • GOOD MORNING RED DEVILS FANS

    Mason Greenwood is sweating on his place for Manchester United’s Premier League opener on Saturday.

    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer plans further talks with his young forward when he gets his full squad back together at Carrington on Monday.

    Greenwood, 18, is in hot water for a second time in the space of a week after pictures emerged of him inhaling nitrous oxide – or ‘party gas’.

    The latest storm came just days after he was sent home from the England camp for breaching coronavirus quarantine rules.

    Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe will spark a £400MILLION battle between Man United, Man City, Liverpool and Real Madrid.

    The French superstar, 21, is understood to have given Paris Saint-Germain notice that he intends to leave at the end of this season.

    With two years left on his contract by then, PSG will expect to get £300m for him should they choose not to stand in the way.

    Mbappe is already on £15m a year and will expect to see that huge salary rise by another £5m when he moves.

    Finally, United have been accused of trying to “blackmail” Bayern Munich over a deal for Thiago Alcantara by Uli Hoeness.

    The ex-chief of the Bavarian giants told Sport1: “I think he obviously has an agreement with Liverpool or United or both of them. 

    “Now both clubs are bluffing and no one has contacted Bayern officially.

    “From my point of view, that has no style. They’re trying to blackmail us by waiting until the last week, when they’re going to make a cheap offer.”

  • FROM SUNSPORT'S MARTIN BLACKBURN

    Mason Greenwood is sweating on his place for Manchester United’s Premier League opener on Saturday.

    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer plans further talks with his young forward when he gets his full squad back together at Carrington on Monday.

    Greenwood, 18, is in hot water for a second time in the space of a week after pictures emerged of him inhaling nitrous oxide – or ‘party gas’.

    The latest storm came just days after he was sent home from the England camp for breaching coronavirus quarantine rules.

  • POWER SERG

    Man United have been dealt a transfer blow as Sergio Reguilon wants to rejoin Sevilla.

    AS claims the Real Madrid left-back has made it clear he wants a return to the Europa League winners after spending last season on loan there.

    Reguilon is an option for Man Utd’s defence this summer but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is believed to prefer Porto’s Alex Telles.

  • BALE OUT

    Man United are set to move for Gareth Bale if they can’t secure a deal for Jadon Sancho.

    The Star claims Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keeping tabs on Bale after he declared his intention to quit Real Madrid.

    The Welshman could also cost just £22million – a great deal less than Borussia Dortmund’s £110m price-tag on Sancho.

  • KUM ON FEEL THE NOISE

    Hellas Verona defender Marash Kumbulla is wanted by Chelsea, according to reports.

    L’Arena claims the Albanian centre-back is a target for the Blues before deadline day.

    However, there is also strong interest in Kumbulla from Man United.

    And London rivals Spurs are also known to be fans.

  • KEEP THEM AT BAY

    Manchester United have been accused of trying to “blackmail” Bayern Munich over a deal for Thiago Alcantara by Uli Hoeness.

    The ex-chief of the Bavarian giants told Sport1: “It is a difficult situation.

    “A while ago we agreed on a new four-year contract. Some days later he said: ‘I’m looking for a new challenge.’ Which is totally okay.

    “I think he obviously has an agreement with Liverpool or United or both of them. Now both clubs are bluffing and no one has contacted Bayern officially.

    “From my point of view, that has no style. They’re trying to blackmail us by waiting until the last week, when they’re going to make a cheap offer.

    “In that case Bayern have to ask themselves: do they want to go along with that or do they tell the player that he has to stay?”

  • PLAY IT KOUL

    Gennaro Gattuso says Napoli will not sell Kalidou Koulibaly unless his asking price is met.

    Man United and rivals City have both been linked with the £70million-rated centre-back.

    Gattuso said: “Koulibaly has a precise asking price, and if the club don’t get the money it is asking for, then he won’t leave.”

  • COSTA BUSINESS

    Douglas Costa has been put up for sale by Juventus.

    Goal claims the Brazilian winger is not wanted by new boss Andrea Pirlo.

    And he is already attracting attention from Man United.

    The Red Devils have been trying to secure a move for Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho.

    But Costa could turn out to be a cheaper and easier alternative to land.

  • TELL TALE

    Porto want just £18.5million for Man United target Alex Telles.

    A Bola claims the Portuguese champs have lowered their demands from £27m as they are yet to receive any bids for the left-back.

    Telles has entered the final year of his contract and Porto do not want to lose him on a free transfer next summer.

  • THIA-GO

    Jamie Carragher believes the transfer hype around Manchester United target Thiago Alcantara is “disrespectful” to Liverpool’s current midfielders.

    He told Sky Sports: “I think the huge clamour for Thiago is a little bit disrespectful to Liverpool’s current midfield three.

    “Yes he would add something different, no doubt. But if he doesn’t come in, it’s not the end of the world, this is still a fantastic midfield for Liverpool.”

  • ROUND-UP

    Manchester United might not have been in action this weekend – but they're certainly busy in the transfer market.

    Jadon Sancho remains the hot topic around Old Trafford, but a move for the Dortmund youngster could be in jeopardy as BVB are unwilling to budge on their £108million asking price.

    As a result, reports suggest that the Red Devils could turn their attention to Gareth Bale instead.

    United have retained an interest in Bale for some time but were put off by his £600,000 a week wages, however with Madrid reportedly willing to pay up to half of his wages a sensational move back to the Premier League could be on.

    The Daily Star claim Solskjaer thinks that Bale would be a great plan b if they fail to land Sancho, the Welshman is desperate to quit Madrid after being frozen out.

    It is believed United would rather take Bale on loan rather than a permanent transfer.

    Meanwhile, Mason Greenwood was at Carrington today for a one-hour visit after his hippy crack and hotel romp shame.

    The Red Devils and England forward, 18, drove into the Utd training facility in his navy Mercedes wearing a long-sleeve top.

    But around 55 minutes later he was on his way out again, in just a United Adidas training t-shirt.

    Greenwood was told on Thursday when he returned to United following his Iceland embarrassment he must train alone for a few days.

    And finally, United have reportedly been told that it will cost as much as £50m to buy Bournemouth midfielder David Brooks.

    Brooks is seen by the Reds as a possible alternative to Sancho and Jack Grealish, but according to the Daily Star Bournemouth would demand a sizable fee for the 23-year-old.
