Here are Manchester United’s headlines on Saturday 25 July.
MEN Sport understands that Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho remains Manchester United’s most sensible precedent in the moving market this summer.
Reports have connected the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Reds with a move at the end of Bayern Munich Kingsley Coman, but the MEN perceive that the French star may be a backup loan option if they fail to reach a deal for Sancho.
Dortmund would have at least 100 million euros for the 20-year-old English international, who would probably surpass Paul Pogba as a signing for United if he replaced him at Old Trafford.
United may have to scale back the ambition of their transfer plans if they fail to qualify for the Champions League again, however.
United wants just one point against Leicester City on Sunday to finish in the 4 most sensible and qualify for the European Cup.
Here are all the main points of Manchester United’s lead writer, Samuel Luckhurst, about the club’s search in Sancho.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has reported that his Manchester United team will move to King Power and will play an attacking game plan opposed to Leicester on Sunday.
A home win would secure United a spot in the top four, while one point would be enough to keep them ahead of the Foxes in the Champions League Qualifying Race.
“We have to get into the game with a mindset, pass to attack, pass to win the ball, pass with the front foot, protect with the front foot,” Solskjaer told Sky Sports.
“We know that Leicester is a smart team and we will be immobilized and we will have to protect our area as well, so prevent the centres, if the centres enter the area, from passing first. All the basics of football.
“And you know you have to paint hard. You have to go through with the mentality that, ‘when I get out of the box today, I gave everything I have for the shirt’, and I hope it’s enough for a result.”
“You can never get the result in a football match, you can only put your effort into performance.”
This is what I had to say in its entirety.
Not only can Leicester bring United back to the most sensible 4 on Sunday at King Power, but Jamie Vardy can receive his first Golden Boot award.
The 33-year-old striker has 23 goals and lately leads the standings, two ahead of the nearest challenger Danny Ings, before the final weekend.
Vardy wants one more purpose to fit his overall 24 into the unforgettable Foxes season in 2015/16.

And United midfielder Fred takes the risk of Leicester’s striker lightly.
“He’s the most sensible scorer by chance,” the midfielder told United’s official website. “So we have to rescind his threat. He’s a very sensible player and he’s having a wonderful season.”
“We have to be very careful with him. He’s a very smart player, we have to think about his threat purpose, but we have very smart players in defense who have to cancel it.”
