What the papers say
The Sun, in what it bills as an exclusive, says Manchester United have agreed a world-record £80million fee to sign Harry Maguire from Leicester. The defender is set to have a medical on Monday, the paper reports.
Now having some spare cash to splash, Leicester are set to replace Maguire with Brighton’s England international Lewis Dunk, having agreed a £45million deal for the 27-year-old, The Sun adds.
Paul Pogba is one of those under consideration to be named the new permanent captain of Manchester United, the Telegraph reports, despite the France midfielder’s desire to leave Old Trafford.
