🚨 Exclusive: Manchester United open talks with West Ham over Crysencio Summerville.
Direct club-to-club contact.
Classified by Manchester United sources as exploratory at this stage, but the Dutch winger high in #MUFC thinking.
Any bid could be contingent on Marcus Rashford being sold.
#THFC are obliterating their transfer record with their £85m move for Mateus Fernandes. Follows signings of Senesi, Roberto and Van Hecke.
#MUFC ultimately unprepared to go to the fee and wage levels Spurs were and are now setting their sights elsewhere.
United been accused of paying over the odds/being held to ransom in the past & current regime only want players absolutely determined to play for them. Feeling that if had gone to that level Spurs would only have gone higher & wouldn’t entertain it

Christopher Vivell, #MUFC Director of Recruitment, remains in close contact with the player’s camp.
Manchester City, Liverpool and Real Madrid are all keeping a close eye on the situation.
A move to the Premier League is viewed as a realistic option in the future. But for now Nmecha is happy at Dortmund and fully focused on the World Cup with Germany. #BVB
With the start of the new season, Nmecha is set to move into the salary bracket previously occupied by Niklas Süle. @SkySportDE

🚨 Marcus Rashford deal at Man Utd includes £40m clause for all clubs bar #MCFC & #LFC. €30m buy option in Barcelona loan expired yesterday. If returns to #MUFC 28yo’s preference is to honour contract (2028) rather than join another PL side @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/I9A74Ko3TI

Prime video will follow MUFC throughout next season. All or Nothing: Manchester United.
Club got a record £ for this type of doc. Been offers before but coaches and others pushed back.
Could be good if done properly and not as a hagiography.
Be better if it’s a top season
