The midfielder has been linked with Arsenal and AC Milan.

“AC Milan is an important brand, it’s a big name.

“But there are also other clubs that want to sign him, especially abroad, they’ve already shown their interest.”

07.40 UPDATE: United confident of getting Maguire

Manchester United are confident they can beat Manchester City to Harry Maguire, according to the Daily Mail.

Both Manchester clubs are keen on a deal for the Leicester defender.

But City are said to be reluctant to pay the £80m Leicester want for him.

And that has put United in the driving seat as they prepare for a huge summer overhaul.

Both strikers impressed for Arsenal last term and the club want to secure their futures.

07.00 UPDATE: Pogba stall over move

Manchester United could lose Paul Pogba this summer, but his agent Mino Raiola is trying to sort out Matthijs de Ligt’s future first.

According to Marca, Pogba is desperate to leave United to join Real Madrid this summer.

However Raiola knows he cannot upset United by trying to force a move while they’re still in the hunt for his other client De Ligt.

And that means Pogba looks set to stay at Old Trafford at least until de Ligt’s future is sorted.

06.45 UPDATE: Wan-Bissaka latest

Aaron Wan-Bissaka will NOT force through a move to Manchester United despite being keen on a transfer.

The young defender is on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s radar as part of his summer overhaul.

The Reds have been linked with a summer swoop for the Ivory Coast international and, according to Le 10 Sport, have made their move.

Lille boss Christopher Galtier is already resigned to losing Pepe this summer but the club are expecting a fee of around £70m.

Liverpool are looking to refine their side in key areas after winning the Champions League but falling just short in the Premier League.
