Here are your Wednesday evening Manchester United headlines.

United Frimpong talks

Manchester United have held talks with the representatives of Bayer Leverkusen right-back Jeremie Frimpong.

United manager Erik ten Hag is still intent on recruiting a new right-back as United could sell up to three full-backs this summer. Sources say Ten Hag really likes Frimpong and is keen on the player.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka was made available for transfer last year but United did not receive any concrete offers. Fellow right-back Diogo Dalot is still in discussions with United over a new contract as he approaches the final year of his existing deal. Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Juventus and AC Milan have all expressed interest in Dalot in recent months.

Although Wan-Bissaka, 25, has regained form in recent months and has been battling Dalot for the starting position, Ten Hag is keen on improving his options at right-back.

Erik ten Hag will make a final decision on Manchester United's returning players on the day of their Europa League quarter-final second leg with Sevilla.

Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Marcel Sabitzer and Marcus Rashford were involved in training on Wednesday and have travelled with the squad to Spain.

Shaw has missed the last three games with an unspecified injury, Rashford sat out two games with an apparent groin strain, Malacia was absent from the win at Nottingham Forest with a sore knee and Sabitzer withdrew from the line-up with a groin problem.

Ten Hag confirmed all four are available to start against Sevilla as United attempt to progress to the semi-finals, where they would face Juventus or Sporting Lisbon.
