Manchester United fans haven't been left short of news during the international break.
The club's sale process ahead of a potential takeover is continuing following a dramatic week which saw the deadline for follow-up bids extended. Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani, through his Nine Two Foundation, and INEOS chief executive Sir Jim Ratcliffe both lodged fresh offers alongside a newcomer into the race: Finnish billionaire Thomas Zilliacus.
In the meantime, United's star players have been strutting their stuff on the international stage. With amount of reports flying around, it also seems that Erik ten Hag hasn't spent much time relaxing before what's set to be a testing run-in, as he's looking ahead to the summer transfer window.
Here's a round-up of the latest news from Old Trafford.
Ten Hag receives boost over 'next Haaland'

According to Danish outlet Ekstra Bladet, via Sport Witness, United have 'concrete interest' in Hojlund amid Ten Hag's search for a new striker.
Meanwhile, the Denmark international - who scored an impressive five goals in two games for his country last week - is set to change agencies in a hint towards a big-money summer transfer, despite joining Atalanta less than a year ago.

Sabitzer dilemma emerges after Bayern decision
Manchester United's attempts to sign Marcel Sabitzer from Bayern Munich on a permanent basis may not be so straightforward following Thomas Tuchel's appointment at the Allianz Arena. The on-loan midfielder has spoken of his desire to remain at Old Trafford following a productive first two months at the club, but that was when he was still out of favour under now-sacked Bayern manager Julian Nagelsmann.

Nagelsmann was the man to bring the Austrian to Munich, having worked together at RB Leipzig, but Sabitzer failed to make an impression after his big move.
