Chelsea are considering a transfer trade with Christopher Nkunku, while Napoli remain in the hunt. United have placed a £70 million price on Garnacho (The Sun).
✍️ Jadon Sancho: Juventus Makes First Offer
Juventus have tabled an opening bid (~€10 million with bonuses) for Jadon Sancho, who is signed up to United until the end of the season.

Keeper Hunt: Botafogo's John Victor in Sights

Summary
Manchester United's transfer season is revving up.
