Express Sport is on hand to bring you the latest transfer news from Old Trafford
Manchester United are still very much active in the transfer market with just eight days until the summer window slams shut. The Red Devils have already welcomed a host of new faces but Erik ten Hag is still believed to be keen on adding to his squad.
A move for Manuel Ugarte appears to be getting closer with United having been locked in talks with PSG over the last few weeks. They are said to be pursuing either a loan or a permanent deal for the midfielder, who is keen on making the switch to Old Trafford before the all-important deadline.
United could also wave goodbye to a number of players, with the likes of Scott McTominay and Jadon Sancho linked with moves elsewhere. Last night, they confirmed the exit of Facundo Pellistri who has joined Greek outfit Panathinaikos on a permanent basis.

Fish having medical at Cardiff
United defender Will Fish is having a medical today ahead of his proposed move to Cardiff City, according to Manchester World.
The Red Devils have agreed to sell Fish to Cardiff in a deal worth up to £2m.
He is expected to be unveiled by the Bluebirds on Friday if his medical goes to plan.

Barcelona weigh up Sancho bid
Barcelona are weighing up the idea of submitting a late bid for Jadon Sancho, according to Sport.
The Catalan giants are believed to view a loan move for Sancho as a potential bargain if a deal can be agreed.
However, it is said that United would demand his wages to be paid in full, which could be a problem for Barcelona.
United among clubs keen on Rabiot
United are one of several Premier League clubs with an interest in signing Adrien Rabiot on a free transfer.
That’s according to CaughtOffside, who are reporting that Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle may also table offers in the coming days.
Rabiot has been linked with United for several years without ever making the switch to Old Trafford.
He was close to joining United in 2020 but the move was thwarted by then-manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Ederson bid immediately rejected
Manchester United have seen a £42m bid for Atalanta midfielder Ederson rejected by the Italian outfit, according to Alfredo Pedulla.
It is said that United officials flew to Italy earlier this week to sort out the paperwork relating to Rasmus Hojlund’s transfer last summer.
While in the country, they spoke to Atalanta about the possibility of signing Ederson and ended up tabling a £42m bid.
However, it was immediately rejected with Atalanta not keen on selling him before the end of the window.
United have reportedly been knocked back in their efforts to sign Ederson
Robinson added to shortlist
United will consider a move for Fulham defender Antonee Robinson if the Cottagers sign Ferdi Kadioglu, according to GiveMeSport.
Kadioglu has been linked with the Red Devils and Brighton but it is said that Fulham have now joined the race.
United are no longer believed to be pursuing a deal for the Fenerbahce defender and could move for Robinson instead.
‘Verbal agreement’ reached with PSG
United appear to be making solid progress in negotiations with PSG over a move for Manuel Ugarte.
A ‘verbal agreement’ has been reached between the parties involved, according to Florian Plettenberg.
Ugarte is expected to join the Red Devils on either a permanent deal or a loan with an obligation to buy.
Things are said to be moving quickly behind the scenes with only a few minor details left to be ironed out.
Ugarte drops exciting transfer hint
Manuel Ugarte set tongues wagging last night by sending a message to departing United winger Facundo Pellistri.
After his move to Panathinaikos was confirmed, Ugarte posted a love heart in response to his farewell message on Instagram.
The two players are international team-mates for Uruguay and represented their nation at the recent Copa America.
