Let’s start with Manchester United where their hopes of signing England winger Jadon Sancho this summer have collapsed.

Sancho was United’s number one target for a summer rebuild, and they were willing to pay Borussia Dortmund up to £100million for the 19-year-old.

But United’s recent performances, ending up sixth in the Premier League table, have ended any prospect of a deal. United will be playing Europa League football again next season, entering at the second qualifying round in late July. There are now major reservations on the side of the player whether Old Trafford would be the right environment for his development.

Barcelona, Real Madrid and Paris Saint Germain are still interested in signing Sancho, who has been instrumental in taking Dortmund to second place in the Bundesliga this year. They are now weighing up whether to offer the £100m that he would cost.

But the news is a setback for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s hopes to add more young, fast players to United’s squad for next season. They have now turned their attention to Swansea City’s Daniel James.
