Manchester United fans are bracing themselves for a busy few weeks, with takeover news and transfer updates on the cards.
Erik ten Hag's side will return to the Champions League next season after wrapping up a third-place finish in the Premier League. That calls for investment, with the FA Cup final showing how much of a gap needs to be made up to reigning champions Manchester City.
Transfers are our focus today, and that means ins and outs. Here are the latest lines from around Old Trafford as Ten Hag looks to prepare his squad for further progress in his second season at the helm.
Sancho told to leave
Jadon Sancho has been urged to end his up-and-down spell at Manchester United. The England international has blown hot and cold since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2021, failing to fully justify his hefty transfer fee.
"I just feel for the lad, you know, because it's a move that hasn't really worked out has it?" pundit Ally McCoist said on talkSPORT. "I don't think anybody can doubt there's a real talent there."
"You go back to that period last season where he was having problems where Ten Hag sent him away to somewhere in Holland to try and get himself squared up. I just feel that the move clearly hasn't worked out.
"And why not? Why not go back to where he was [Dortmund]? You know, he was loved and he was playing well, without doubt, the best football of his career."
Caicedo transfer fear
Brighton remain worried about losing Moises Caicedo this summer. The Ecuadorian midfielder signed a new deal during the 2022-23 season, but interest from the likes of Man Utd and Arsenal remains.

“As I have always said to him, if he stays I will be very happy to play by his side, to continue enjoying his football," club and international team-mate Pervis Estupinan said of the youngster. "[But if he leaves] I would wish him all the best wherever he is because he is a good boy, a good professional, a good worker, a machine, a beast as a player.
“If he leaves, then we will face him. I only ask him not to put his body into me because he is very strong!”
Elanga teammate masterminding move
Sweden midfielder Emil Forsberg has admitted he has spoken to Anthony Elanga, amid suggestions the Man Utd winger could join him at RB Leipzig. Forsberg, one of his country's senior players, has been joined by the 21-year-old for Sweden's upcoming international fixtures.
"I will sit down with the president, with Oliver [Mintzlaff], here soon and see what we should do," Forsberg told Fotboll Skanalen. "I have spoken to Anthony. But it stays between us
"I know Anthony quite well, so it's quite normal if it were to come up," he continued. "But he is a young and talented player who fits in with us. We have been good at developing young and talented players."
