It's full steam ahead for Manchester United now that the season is over with Erik ten Hag settling in at the club.
The Red Devils announced Ralf Rangnick will not take his consultancy role this summer as the new United boss takes ownership on the transfer front. The Old Trafford club are expecting a busy window with several free agents leaving next month when their contracts expire. And Ten Hag is already lining up replacements as he targets a new defender, midfielder and a striker.
The Dutchman says he wants to improve the current crop of players but that doesn't mean he won't be splashing the cash. Here are all the latest rumours doing the rounds for United.
Nkunku drops big hint
Christopher Nkunku has dropped a huge hint which suggests he could be holding out for a move to Paris Saint Germain.
Nkunku had a stunning campaign for Leipzig, and was rewarded with the Bundesliga player of the season award. His 20 goals and 13 assists in 36 league games saw him beat the likes of Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland to the award.
But United's pursuit may be short lived, as the Frenchman has opened up about his future. And it looks as though Nkunku is destined for a move to PSG, instead of Old Trafford.
When asked about his future, Nkunku said: "Paris is my home, my favourite club. I don't close any doors. Everything is possible in football. It's nice to have the biggest clubs in the world interested in me. But it's also great to see that Leipzig are doing everything to keep me."
Dembele blow
Ousmane Dembele is reportedly on the verge of reaching an agreement with Chelsea, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The winger's contract at Barcelona will expire in the coming weeks with the Frenchman set to leave as a free agent. The Blues are interested in bringing him to the Premier League, but United and Arsenal have also been linked.
But it appears Thomas Tuchel's men are in pole position to secure his signature and fight off competition from the Red Devils.
This has been backed up by 90min who claim that Chelsea are quietly confident of striking a deal to take him to Stamford Bridge.

Tuchel's stance on Kante
Thomas Tuchel is unconvinced about letting N'Golo Kante leave for Manchester United.
United have made it clear they would like to pursue a deal with the Frenchman as his contract runs out next summer. Chelsea risk letting him leave as a free agent in 12 months' time unless he signs a new deal.
But Tuchel will need to be persuaded if he is to part ways with the midfielder, especially to a Premier League rival, according to The Athletic.
The German still sees Kante as influential as other world-class players such as Kylian Mbappe, Kevin De Bruyne and Mohamed Salah.
