Man Utd plot Barcelona deal
Barcelona starlet Ansu Fati has emerged as the winger Manchester United want if their pursuit of Jadon Sancho proves unsuccessful.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is eager to bolster his attack this summer in a bid to close the gap on Premier League champions Liverpool.
And Sancho has been his No 1 target following a scintillating past couple of seasons with Borussia Dortmund.
However, Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo indicate Fati is seen as an alternative and United are prepared to stump up £153m to get him through the door.
Chelsea target speaks out
Chelsea might get a few seasons out of Thiago Silva if they manage to lure the Brazilian to Stamford Bridge this summer.
The departing Paris Saint-Germain captain is targeting a place in his country’s squad for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

“I still want to play for three or four years,” Silva told French outlet RMC Sport following PSG’s 1-0 Champions League final defeat to Bayern Munich.
“I want to prepare for the World Cup in Qatar in 2022. We will see how my body will react.”

Thiago Alcantara to Liverpool
Liverpool target Thiago Alcantara will make a decision on where his future lies in the coming days, says Bayern Munich boss Hansi Flick.
Jurgen Klopp is seriously interested in adding the Spain international to his Premier League-winning squad this summer.
And, speaking after Bayern’s 1-0 Champions League final victory over PSG, Flick revealed the next week would be crucial.
“He told me that he would stay [at Bayern],” joked Flick. “I just thanked him. I don’t know [where his future lies], he doesn’t know himself yet. We’ll have to wait and see what happens in the next few days.”
Arsenal to sign Gabriel Magalhaes
Arsenal are today set to wrap up a £27m deal for Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes as Mikel Arteta continues his squad overhaul.
Express Sport understands the Brazilian underwent a medical in France last week and will put pen to paper on a five-year contract, worth £80,000 a week.
Gabriel will enter a two-week quarantine period upon arrival in London, meaning he’s poised to miss the start of the new Premier League campaign.
However, Arteta will look to bed him in as soon as he can get involved in training, with the 22-year-old in line to partner William Saliba in defence.
