Manchester United transfer news LIVE: Jadon Sancho and Alex Telles latest, Dayot Upamecano and Dominic Calvert-Lewin interest
Manchester United are pushing for reinforcements in the transfer market with the summer deadline less than two weeks away.
The 3-1 home defeat to Crystal Palace on Saturday has hastened the urgency for new recruits with Jadon Sancho remaining the No 1 target. Borussia Dortmund have been holding out for £108m all summer but Ed Woodward is said to be confident they will drop the asking price before the deadline with personal terms already agreed with the England international. Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin is another said to be of interest although the Toffees’ value the striker, fresh from a hat-trick at the weekend, at upwards of £80m.
Left-back is another priority position to upgrade with Porto’s Alex Telles another to be linked. A five-year deal has been agreed with a fee with the Portuguese club now being haggled over. RB Leipzig’s Dayot Upamecano is a long-term target with suggestions that interest could be revisited before the deadline. There could yet be a number of exits too with Chris Smalling still set for Roma and Jesse Lingard a surprise target for Tottenham Hotspur and former boss Jose Mourinho.
