Manchester United are considering whether to hand Alejandro Garnacho the number seven shirt after his meteoric breakout season.

Garnacho has scored five goals and assisted this campaign and can now become the first teenager to wear the shirt since Cristiano Ronaldo – who left the shirt vacant in November – in 2003.

Meanwhile, United made another offer for Mason Mount. Chelsea are said to be keeping around £60m, slightly higher than United’s second bid of £50m.

Top story of the day: United aim to buy Mason Mount quickly

Manchester United will have the resources available to purchase a striker if they complete the signing of Mason Mount from Chelsea.

Despite the ongoing uncertainty over United’s ownership, the club is riding high regardless of the outcome due to financial fair play regulations which have seen United operate on a tight budget once again.

United want to sign a striker after scoring a modest 58 goals in 38 Premier League games last season, while Anthony Martial missed 33 of United’s 62 matches due to six separate injuries.

Opinion: United need to offload three players from one position

When it comes to moving dead trees, there can be very few clubs with more of these things to move than Manchester United this summer.

United’s squad is full of players whose careers have stalled or simply don’t have a future at Old Trafford. The team has become bloated and filled with players who simply do not reach the level required of the Reds club.
