'Here we go': Man United miss out on sensational talent to European giants
United are determined to hand Ruben Amorim a new striker to complete his revamped attack.
Accordingly, the club's hierarchy have tabled a bid worth €85 million for RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko. However, they face competition from Newcastle United, who have submitted a higher offer for the Slovenian.
The two clubs are now waiting for Sesko to make a final decision on his future.
The arrival of the Leipzig star should greatly improve United's frontline. However, United also intend to address their midfield. After United secured the services of Bryan Mbeumo, it was reported that the Red Devils want to sign a defensive minded midfielder for Amorim.
AC Milan leave Man United behind in the race for Jashari
Early in the summer, The Peoples Person relayed a report claiming United held talks with the representatives of Club Brugge talent Ardon Jashari.
The 23-year-old midfielder has drawn comparisons to Barcelona legend Sergio Busquets, owing to his technical prowess. However, AC Milan have now struck a deal with the Belgian outfit for the United target.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Brugge have accepted Milan's latest bid believed to be in the region of €39 million.
Jashari is now set to undergo medical tests, having already agreed to move to San Siro.
Man United to make offer for Sara
United, meanwhile, have set their sights on Galatasaray midfielder Gabriel Sara, according to reports in Turkey.
Sara, who left Norwich City in 2024, has proven to be a great asset for Gala in the middle of the park. Still, he could swiftly return to England amid interest from the Premier League giants.
It is understood that United are considering making a bid for Sara 'in the coming days.' For the time being, it seems they are focused on Sesko.

Fabrizio Romano Offers Update on PSG's Interest in Real Madrid Star Linked to Liverpool
Rodrygo's Real Madrid future is under scrutiny following a quiet Club World Cup showing, with growing speculation linking the Brazilian forward to PSG. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has now weighed in on the situation as the summer window heats up. PSG's position on Rodrygo remains somewhat murky. According to Josué Cassé of Foot Mercato, the Brazilian forward isn't currently on their radar — a report that conflicts with Sky Sports Germany's Florian Plettenberg, who also ruled out Tottenham Hotspur as a potential landing spot. Still, Plettenberg added that Liverpool and PSG monitor Rodrygo's situation. PSG are said to be seriously interested and are in the market for a top young winger, though any potential move may hinge on how the transfer window plays out in the coming weeks. Are PSG keen on Real Madrid standout? FlorenciaRomano reports that PSG will consider a move for Rodrygo if Bradley Barcola leaves, as he's one of the names on their list. However, the Parisians have no plans to sell Barcola and would only consider it if he publicly says he wants to go. The club has already prepared a major contract extension to keep him. Arsenal were previously linked with a move for Brazilian winger Rodrygo earlier this summer, with Liverpool and Tottenham also showing interest. But according to Spanish outlet AS, Rodrygo appears set on staying at the Bernabeu. He's reportedly eager to fight for his place under incoming manager Xabi Alonso and believes he can make an impact alongside Real Madrid's current attacking talent.

FSG completes $130M deal but not the Alexander Isak transfer Liverpool fans want
Fenway Sports Group has put pen to paper on a new $130M deal — though not the one that many Liverpool fans might've wanted. In recent days, droves of Reds supporters have called on the club to sign Alexander Isak. The Newcastle United star has expressed interest in coming to Anfield, though the Magpies shot down Liverpool's initial bid of $146 million while valuing the forward closer to $200 million. As rumors continue to swirl surrounding a potential union between Liverpool and Isak, owners Fenway Sports Group inked another big-name player to a lucrative contract at their Major League Baseball franchise. On Wednesday, the Boston Red Sox signed outfielder Roman Anthony to an eight-year, $130 million contract extension that features a $30 million club option in 2034. Escalators pertaining to accolades including Rookie of the Year, MVP and All-Star selections could raise the total value up to $230 million.

Heading into the season, the 21-year-old was widely regarded as the top prospect in all of baseball — and has thus far lived up to the billing. 'First of all, I want to say a special thanks to the Henry's — Mike, Tom, Sam, Brez, the whole entire front office, coaching staff, my teammates who are here today,' Anthony told reporters during a press conference formally announcing his extension. 'I can thank so many people, my family who are here today, my agents, and just everyone along my life who has helped me get to where I am today. There's a long list of people I could thank and a lot of people who aren't here right now. 'As we know, in this game it takes a team, and it took a team to get this done. I couldn't think of a better city to play in for the next eight to nine years of my life, and I'm super excited. 'I want to thank all the fans who show up every day and continue to support us regardless of the outcome,' he continued. 'It's truly just a special place to play and a special place to show up every single day. 'So I couldn't be more excited for this and couldn't be more thankful for everyone in this room and everyone who's helped me get here today.' Given the fact that both sides were interested in swiftly getting a deal done, Anthony asserted that the negotiation process went off with no hitches. 'This process was quick,' he said. 'This is a place that I want to be. There was no doubt about it. I came up through this org with so many of these people in this room and people who aren't in this room who helped me get here. 'So when the offer came through, it was something that I wanted to move quick on. And there was no doubt that this is where I wanted to play baseball for a long time.'
