Focus will now turn to their trip to the United States of America later this month. Off the pitch, new sporting director Dan Ashworth is continuing his work in the transfer market and will be hoping to add a number of additional faces to Ten Hag’s squad before the first game of the season against Fulham.
With that being said, MEN Sport has taken a look at the latest United news and gossip that has been doing the rounds in the last 24 hours.
PSG back out of Yoro race
Man United’s interest in Lille centre-back Leny Yoro is well-documented. Earlier this month, it was reported that the Red Devils had had a bid accepted by the French club but a decision by the player was what was delaying the move.
Reаl маdrіd іѕ ᴜnderѕtood to Ьe һіѕ рreference Ьᴜt tһe Eᴜroрeаn cһамріonѕ аre уet to аgree а deаl wіtһ Lіlle. Fortᴜnаtelу for ᴜnіted, tһe rаce for tһe teenаger’ѕ ѕіgnаtᴜre іѕ down to jᴜѕt two аѕ рѕG һаʋe reрortedlу Ьаcked oᴜt of tһe rаce.

MEN Sport says: “The longer this saga goes on, the more likely United are to sign Yoro. Real Madrid may be the player’s preferred destination but their continued reluctance to reach an agreement with Lille will eventually put the defender off. How long until he gets the feeling that they’re not that keen?
“PSG backing away means United only have Madrid to compete with. The Parisians’ nature to spend big on players means they are always a threat when targeting players, as they have suffered with Neves.
“It leaves United with a greater chance to sign Yoro, so over to you Madrid.”
Dream Mainoo partner identified
United have acted swiftly in the transfer window in improving their defence but centre midfield remains a priority for Ashworth and Ten Hag and reports have emerged linking Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton with a move to Old Trafford..

MEN Sport says: “Wharton is a player almost certain to secure a big-money move away from Palace in the future. His performance levels have been class since his move at the start of the year and he’s only going to get better.
“He’s currently 20 and to be performing at that level is quite something. However, I’m not sold on the idea of United building their midfield around two youngsters. Mainoo is world-class and he will stay in Ten Hag’s engine room for years but he needs an experienced partner.
“Casemiro, perhaps three years ago, would have been ideal. He isn’t the player he used to be so the smart choice would be to sign another player and wait on Wharton, for now.”
