Manchester United have interest in Pau Torres and Darwin Nunez as they look to bolster their squad. And, over the past week, it’s been claimed deals for both players are ‘close’ by the same source. Erik ten Hag is eager for the Red Devils to get their recruitment right as they look to win the Premier League title for the first time since 2013, back when Sir Alex Ferguson ruled the roost.

Rashford has been linked with moves to the likes of Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona in recent months.
