Manchester United transfer news LIVE updates: All the latest from Old Trafford
Monday, August 5.
Manchester United’s all-time top goalscorer Wayne Rooney could return to England as a player-coach for Derby County.The Telegraph report Rooney is in talks with The Rams over a sensational return to English football despite having one year left on his DC United contract.
Rooney, 33, has previously expressed his desire to go into coaching after his playing career and lauded Derby for giving Frank Lampard his first job in management last season.
Derby appointed former Barcelona player Phillip Cocu as manager this summer and got their Championship campaign off to a winning start on Monday night against Huddersfield.

Juventus have not given up on their pursuit of Romelu Lukaku despite a swap deal involving Paulo Dybala breaking down on Sunday night.
That is according to Corriere Torino journalist Massimiliano Nerozzi, who has been close to the transfer saga.
“#Juve and #United will make another attempt for #Dybala and #Lukaku but the deal remains complicated,” he broke on Twitter.
Inter Milan are also expected to make a second bid for the striker after their initial £54m offer was rejected earlier in the window.
Manchester United will try to sell Marcos Rojo before Thursday’s deadline following the signing of Harry Maguire, according to The Mirror.
Maguire has brought Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s centre-back count to seven now and Rojo is at the bottom of the pecking order.
The Argentine played on the weekend against AC Milan but Victor Lindelof is expected to be Maguire’s partner.
Rojo signed a contract extension at Old Trafford last season, pinning him to the club until 2021.

It took Manchester United vice-chairman Ed Woodward to duration of the summer to cave in to Leicester City’s £80million demand on Harry Maguire – but it has now been revealed the offers which Manchester City made for the Englishman.
According to The Athletic, Pep Guardiola wanted Maguire to replace Vincent Kompany in the heart of City’s defence.
Nicolas Otamendi was offered to The Foxes as part of a deal but Leicester turned it down due to the Argentine’s wage demands – as well as the fact they preferred the full fee in cash.
Eliaquim Mangala was also included in a bid but Leicester had no interest in the defender. City eventually had a £70m bid rejected and withdrew from the race in July.

Manchester United officials are increasingly confident Paul Pogba will stay at Old Trafford after Real Madrid’s offer for the central midfielder last week.
The Times claim Los Blancos bid £27.4million plus James Rodriguez for Pogba, which was rejected by United, who value the player at around £150m.
There is a belief around Old Trafford that Real cannot afford Pogba unless they raise substantial funds through player sales – with Gareth Bale the biggest name on their transfer list.
The Welshman has three years left on his Bernabeu deal, though, and clubs are reluctant to match his £600,000-a-week contract.
Unless Real raise funds before the La Liga deadline on September 2, Pogba looks a United player for another season.

Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte was asked about the club’s pursuit of Romelu Lukaku after his side’s penalty shootout win over Tottenham on Sunday.
The former Chelsea boss has previously expressed his desire to sign the striker and said: “We continue to work on it in the best possible way.
“I understand there are some gaps that need to be filled, but at the moment I am very hopeful that this will happen…
“Everyone said it was done for Lukaku to Inter two weeks ago, now they say it’s done with Juventus.
“The fact is, if you don’t have the agreements between player and club, nothing will be done. So let’s see what happens.”

Romelu Lukaku trained with Belgian club Anderlecht today, wearing their training kit, after being given permission by United.
He has not played one game during pre-season and United officials want to cash in on the striker, who they signed for £75m in 2017.
A prospective swap deal with Juventus broken down on Sunday night after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was unconvinced Paulo Dybala wanted to join his project in Manchester.
That, along with exorbitant wages and agent fees ended United’s interest in the playmaker and Inter Milan are now expected to make a second offer to lure Lukaku to Italy.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is also happy to see Harry Maguire become a Manchester United player.
“Harry is one of the best centre-backs in the game today and I am delighted we have secured his signature.
“He is a great reader of the game and has a strong presence on the pitch, with the ability to remain calm under pressure – coupled with his composure on the ball and a huge presence in both boxes – I can see he will fit well into this group both on and off the pitch.
“He has a great personality and is a fantastic addition to the club.
“I would like to welcome Harry to Manchester United and we are looking forward to working with him as we prepare for the new season.”

It’s done.
Finally, Manchester United have signed Harry Maguire and he’s buzzing to start his Old Trafford adventure.
“I am delighted to have signed for this great club. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Leicester and would like to thank everyone at the club, and the fans, for their fantastic support over the past two seasons,” he said.
“However, when Manchester United come knocking on your door, it is an incredible opportunity.
”From my conversations with the manager, I am excited about the vision and plans he has for the team. It’s clear to see that Ole is building a team to win trophies. I am now looking forward to meeting my new team-mates and getting the season started.”

Manchester United have had no contact with Sporting Lisbon for Bruno Fernandes, Duncan Castles has claimed.
“As of recently, very recently, I think last weekend, Sporting, upon being asked about Manchester United’s interest in Bruno Fernandes, told a friend of mine ‘I don’t know why the press keep talking about Manchester United. We haven’t had any contact at all with the club’.
“They basically handed over the selling of Bruno to his brother-in-law, his agent, and the brother-in-law has been telling Sporting ‘a bid is gonna come, a bid is gonna come. Manchester United, Tottenham, other clubs are interested in the player.
“‘They’ve told me they will make an offer and it will be an offer that will be acceptable to Sporting.’
“Sporting have been allowing the agent to carry on that route, that is the source of a lot of these stories.
“I think if you want to go and dig a bit about what’s emerged on Bruno Fernandes, I think there was a fairly substantial report that he was a step away from signing for Manchester United, you will dig back and as far as I can see it’s sourced to ANSA, which is an Italian newspaper report, which is run by one of the prominent Italian newspapers.
“It was basically talking about Sampdoria being due a percentage of the transfer fee were Bruno Fernandes to move for the kind of money that Sporting are asking, which varies between €55m and €65m.
“They’ve made various public statements on this, how much Sampdoria would get.
“And that appears to have been blown into people reporting and doing a kind of Chinese whispers to the effect that Manchester United were just out to pull the trigger on the deal.”
Romelu Lukaku has been tipped to shine alongside Cristiano Ronaldo should he swap Manchester United for Juventus.
Belgium legend Enzo Scifo said: “One does not exclude the other. Real Madrid had Karim Benzema alongside him and he scored a lot thanks to Ronaldo.
“I see a similar situation: Cristiano would play ‘for’ Romelu, take the pressure off him, and then in the area Lukaku would engage the defenders. They would do each other good.
“Lukaku has the quality to be a super striker, but on one condition: the team has to play for him. Make the most of his features: I think Juve would do it.”
Arsenal chiefs told Manchester United that Alexis Sanchez was a ‘loner’ – but the Red Devils only found that out AFTER a transfer had been sealed.
The Athletic have revealed what happened in the immediate aftermath of the player moving to Old Trafford in January 2018.
It is said that United found out from Arsenal that Sanchez was characterised as a loner during his time in north London.
He was even described as ‘downright sullen at times’.
But, by the time United found out the information, it was too late with Sanchez already signing on the dotted line.
On top of that, Arsenal chiefs were not surprised to hear similar reports on Sanchez being isolated at Old Trafford.

Manchester United coach Michael Carrick has been secretly working on Sean Longstaff, who is wanted by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Old Trafford this summer.
The Athletic claim that Carrick has been using contacts at Newcastle to try and build a picture of Longstaff.
He has then been passing that intel onto Solskjaer, who is still keen to complete his signing.
Carrick isn’t the only ex-United star helping the club in the transfer market this summer.
It is claimed that both Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs passed on intel from Crystal Palace figures when it came to Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
Giggs also recommended that Solskjaer sign Daniel James having been left by his maturity since a move to Leeds United broke down in January.

Manchester United are expected to confirm the signing of Harry Maguire from Leicester today.
Express Sport understands the England international underwent a medical at the club’s Carrington training complex over the weekend.
Maguire was snapped in his car driving away with some United merchandise in the back seat of his vehicle.
And an announcement should be done today over the £80million transfer, one that will make him the most-expensive defender in world football.

Manchester United are close to signing Mario Mandzukic from Juventus.
That’s according to the Daily Mail,
The Croatia international has been linked with a move to United in recent weeks and, now, he will reportedly sign a three-year contract with the club.
United are said to be paying him an annual salary of £6million a year.
And that’s a huge 30 per cent increase on what he has received during his time in Turin.

Manchester United fans have been begging the club to sign Bruno Fernandes all summer long. But BBC Sport’s Simon Stone insists that will not be happening this summer.
“Re Fernandes, in fairness I have not been given any indication by anyone at Utd that he was a live candidate this summer,” he tweeted.
“Other clubs also said no when they were linked.”
United deciding not to go for Fernandes could prompt Tottenham into signing the Sporting Lisbon star instead.

Australia paceman Josh Hazlewood has cranked up the pressure on Jason Roy ahead of the Ashes, saying he might struggle as a Test opener.
Callum Hudson-Odoi has agreed a five-year deal worth more than £100,000 a week to stay at Chelsea.
The England winger, 18, handed in a transfer request in January after Chelsea rejected a £35m bid from Bayern Munich.
But he is set to sign a new contract before the start of the season.
The youngster is understood to have been encouraged by positive words from new manager Frank Lampard, who said he wanted Hudson-Odoi to stay.
The teenager, who is recovering from an Achilles injury suffered in April, is on track for a quick return to action, potentially as soon as September.
Throughout the negotiations, playing time is understood to have been the key issue for Hudson-Odoi, who made 24 appearances and scored five goals under former boss Maurizio Sarri last season.
But he had to wait until April to make his first Premier League start, having already made his England debut.
Former Chelsea and England midfielder Lampard, who took charge of the Blues earlier in July, said the academy graduate can be a “huge player” for his team.
Midfielders Mason Mount and Ruben Loftus-Cheek have signed new deals since Lampard took over from Sarri.
The manager previously said of Hudson-Odoi: “I am not going to say things that are pie in the sky but, with his talent, he can be central to this team, he can be central to England.
“He can show, right here at Chelsea, the team he came through the academy at, that he is going to be a world-class player – because I truly believe that.”
