Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood is reportedly a transfer target for AC Milan. The Serie A giants are said to admire the 21-year-old for his ‘technical ability’, at a time when his Old Trafford future is up in the air. And with Erik ten Hag having interest in Rafael Leao, a swap deal could be there to be done.

Matteo Darmian was the first, with the right-back touching down from Torino in 2015 when Louis van Gaal ruled the roost.
Sergio Romero followed that summer, with the Argentina international proving to be a safe presence between the sticks during his time in the Premier League.
Jose Mourinho opted to raid Juventus for Paul Pogba upon taking the United job in 2016.

Regarding Greenwood, meanwhile, Ten Hag said back in February the club couldn’t afford to be distracted by the youngster’s situation.
“It’s really important but sometimes you get issues,” he said. “Then as a club and team you have to deal with it.
“We have standards and values. We have to live along those high standards and values and that gives a base if you have a good culture and spirit.
“That’s our job, not to get distracted by anything. We are human beings and sometimes there are issues, we are not like robots, but we have to focus on our job.
“We have so many games so we don’t have time to get distracted by anything. It’s not easy but that is our job.”
