FAMILY FORTUNES
Now it has been revealed on social media that the 22-year-old’s sister Mayara follows the London side on Instagram.
‘VERY GOOD PLAYERS’
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has warned his side what to look out for against Copenhagen.
“But I think the biggest strength is the teamwork and how well organised Stale’s teams always are.”
The Red Devils were given a deadline of today to agree a transfer for the England winger by Borussia Dortmund.
And according to the Standard, United may go for Coman in their hunt for an alternative.
GUNNER IMPROVE
But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer remained modest ahead of the clash against Copenhagen.
‘I DON’T CARE’
The Old Trafford veteran also dismissed claims that the Red Devils have enough to players in his position.
STALEMATE
“Of course, I played against them when I was at Molde.
“I’ve known Stale for such a long time, and Copenhagen have a great history in getting into Europe and doing well in Europe.”
The Red devils boss was asked how he plans to keep his players occupied during their spell in Germany.
“You can’t think too far ahead.
“It’s a knockout tournament. If you don’t perform, you’re going home.”
JAD ENOUGH
The Independent claim the 20-year-old was so sure he would leave the club before pre-season training resumed.
Andrea Pirlo is showing no mercy as the new Juventus boss by preparing to flog seven stars, according to reports.
The legendary midfielder, 41, replaced Maurizio Sarri at the Allianz Stadium over the weekend.
And Pirlo is wasting little time in getting rid of the deadwood he does not want – starting with the likes of ex-Chelsea striker Gonzalo Higuain and Manchester United target Douglas Costa.
The report also adds that Sami Khedira and Blaise Matuidi are also at risk of being let go with both midfielders 33 years old.
GREEN LIGHT
Mason Greenwood still wants to score a headed goal for Manchester United’s first-team this season.
When asked which area of his game he is looking to improve, he told Uefa: “I think in headed goals.
“I’ve not scored a headed goal in the first team this season.
Kai Havertz is said to be pushing for a move to the Premier League more than Jadon Sancho.
According to Sky Sports, of the pair it is Havertz who “is the one who is most keen to move as soon as possible”.
CONTE BELIEVE IT
The defender was deemed surplus to requirements by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer last summer and was shipped off to Roma on a season-long loan.
Roma are desperate to keep the former Fulham man, who will miss out on their Europa League quest this month, but have been put off by United’s £21m asking price.
SANCH-GO
Off he goes…
Jadon Sancho is on his way to Switzerland with his team-mates. Ouch.

BREAKING NEWS
And the Ace of England has been named in the pre-season team of Borussia Dortmund and will fly to Switzerland with them.
The Bundesliga team had in the past told United that they were looking for an agreement to stand until 10 August.
But the Red Devils refused to fulfill their 108 million pound order.
And this morning, nothing had been announced and Dortmund announced that the winger component of his team will travel to Switzerland to prepare for the next season.
Lucien Favre will put his players to the test at an educational camp in the Swiss city of Bad Ragaz.

COP OUT
Copenhagen head coach Stale Solbakken has admitted that his team will want to be “perfect” to beat Manchester United.
He said: “To do this, we have to play perfectly.
“We need a bit of luck. We maybe need a United that doesn’t fire on all cylinders.
“We have to be the best defensive.
“We have that or two or three opportunities we have in a game like this.”
POG HAIR
Paul Pogba has worked more on the court to make up for lost time, revealed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Speaking to the club’s website, he said: “I’ve answered a lot of questions about Paul, and we’re very happy that he’s coming to play.
“He’s fit, he loves his football.
“Of course you have to make up time and try to do it.
“Also, he trains, he has a wonderful personality in and around the place, and hopefully we can see him lift this trophy [as] he has done before.”
Come and get me
Manchester United have a backup plan in place should Jadon Sancho’s move to Old Trafford fall through.
This comes in the form of Bayern Munich’s Kingsley Coman, according to the Evening Standard.
Coman is unlikely to appear in Munich next season, with Leroy Sane joining the Bundesliga champions.
And as a result, Manchester United is contemplating a loan deal, Bayern Munich prefers to sell directly.
D-DAY
It’s a huge day for Manchester United, as Dortmund’s deadline for getting an offer for Jadon Sancho expires tonight.
The German team is back in pre-season this week and expects Sancho to be there.
Dortmund is also willing to move on from its requested value of 108 million pounds at this time and would be disappointed if United implied the value they would be willing to pay, says Kaveh Solhekol of Sky Sports.
However, he also stated that United will never be in a more powerful position to point to Sancho, as all clubs have been excluded from the market due to the coronavirus.
He added that United was looking for Sancho, Sancho was looking for a signing for United and some other Champions League season to Dortmund, as it was not enough to convince him to stay.
GOOD MORNING UNITED FANS,
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will have to let one of his goalkeepers pass – Dean Henderson does not facilitate the Position of No. 1.
David De Gea is under pressure after a series of errors, while Henderson has had two successful seasons on loan at Sheffield United.
Neither he nor De Gea want to be the understudy and Sergio Romero will not sit around as third choice.
Before United’s Europa League quarter-finals against Copenhagen night, Solskjaer said: “It will be difficult to keep three of them, so let’s see what the resolution is.
“I have to be the world’s top privileged technician with our goalkeeper department.
Sergio, David and, with Dean Henderson’s back-up, it’s three goalkeepers.
“The Europa League also demonstrated how vital Sergio was to us, and David has been performing.
“We’ll see what we do in the future.”
Solskjaer shared his optimism that Paul Pogba will signal a new contract at United.
Pogba’s existing agreement at Old Trafford expires next summer, however, SunSport reported last month that it was close to accepting some other five-year extension.
And Solskjaer added: “Since he returned from the injury, it has been a pleasure.
“He’s worked very hard, he’s satisfied and he’s playing well.
“We’ll see Paul in the next two seasons, I’m sure.
“And I can’t wait to see him grow up with this team.
“He will have to be one of the leaders, one of the great figures, because he is achieving his best moment as a footballer at 27.
“I’m looking ahead to run with him.”
Eventually, Tahith Chong could head to the Bundesliga with Man Utd in a position to let the winger register on loan at Werder Bremen.
Chong reportedly, 20, held talks with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Friday after appearing in United’s Europa League against LASK.
According to the Daily Mail, Bremen is ahead of signing a two-year loan deal to Chong.
PAUL IN
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is confident that Paul Pogba will sign a new contract at Manchester United.
Pogba’s existing agreement at Old Trafford expires next summer, however, SunSport reported last month that it was close to accepting some other five-year extension.
Speaking about the Europa League quarter-final match with Copenhagen, United manager Solskjaer hinted that Pogba’s long run is in Manchester.
“Since he returned from injury, it has been a pleasure,” Solskjaer said.
“He’s worked very hard, he’s satisfied and he’s playing well.
“We’ll see Paul in the next two seasons, I’m sure.
“And I can’t wait to see him grow up with this team.
“He will have to be one of the leaders, one of the great figures, because he is achieving his best moment as a footballer at 27.
“I’m looking ahead to run with him.”
JEEPERS KEEPERS
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has suggested Manchester United are unlikely to go into next season with all three of David de Gea, Sergio Romero, and Dean Henderson.
He said: “The put festival is good. We have Sergio, David and Dean there with David supporting them.
“It’s going to be hard to stay 3 at the club. So let’s see what the resolution is.
ITALIAN WORK
Inter Milan legend Andreas Brehme believes his former team and Bayer Leverkusen are great favourites for United for the Europa League this season.
“I have no doubt, for me it’s the Inter,” he told the Gazzetta dello Sport.
“The nerazzurri are a perfect team, even though Bayer Leverkusen is strong and has a perfect striker like Havertz, Conte’s team takes the lead.
“I would say that whoever wins this match has a wonderful match in the Europa League. The semi-final against Shakhtar Donetsk or Basel can be won.
“On the other side of the bracket I think Manchester United will qualify for the finals. But both Inter and Bayer are stronger than the English club.”
