Manchester United transfer news: Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez left out of squad to face Kristiansund

The Belgian has been strongly linked with a move away to Inter Milan or Juventus after falling out of favour under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Romelu Lukaku appears to be closer to the Manchester United exit after being left out of the pre-season squad to face Kristiansund.

The Belgian has been strongly linked with a move to Serie A, with Inter Milan knocked back with several bids, and now Juventus reportedly interested too.

Lukaku appears to be out of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's plans and has been struggling with an injury, meaning he is yet to take part in pre-season, and he will not feature in Oslo now.

A swap deal with the Old Lady could be on, with Paulo Dybala moving in the opposite direction, looks to be an alternative to Inter coming up with enough money to ensure the Red Devils only make a small loss on the former Everton star.

United want £75 million, while Alexis Sanchez could be another casualty having also been omitted from the squad.

Paul Pogba continue to play his part in pre-season, despite his future also the subject of speculation.

Youngsters Mason Greenwood, Tahith Chong and Angel Gomes are all included as they continue to form part of Solskjaer's first team plans.
