Man United have been forced to look at other forward options as Chelsea stand firm on Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech with Todd Boehly and Thomas Tuchel only willing to sanction respective loan moves on one condition.
The Blues are set to be one of the busiest sides in Europe for the remainder of this summer's transfer window on the incoming and outgoing side of things. Amid strong rumours that Boehly is willing to sanction a £150million 'gold rush' that could involve Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Wesley Fofana, Frenkie de Jong and Anthony Gordon, significant moves need to happen on the outgoings to balance the books.
Timo Werner, Romelu Lukaku, Malang Sarr and a few others have departed but more is expected through the Stamford Bridge exit doors. football.london understands that talks are ongoing despite an initial breakdown in negotiations for Emerson Palmieri's move to West Ham. Further up the pitch, Ziyech and Pulisic are wanting more regular game time, especially for the latter who has been encouraged to move on loan to gain more regular first-team minutes with Qatar 2022 in mind.
