Manchester United have reportedly agreed personal terms with their next summer signing.

United have already secured deals for Daniel James and Aaron Wan-Bissaka this offseason but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to add more new faces before the window shuts next month.

One could be Wissam Ben Yedder who appears to be Solskjaer's preferred striker signing.

The Sevilla striker has a £35m release clause in his contract with the Express reporting that he has agreed personal terms on a switch.

Newcastle's Sean Longstaff could be another incoming with Solskjaer particularly keen on the young midfielder.

The Daily Star report a deal could be struck as soon as this week with the Magpies valuing the youngster at around £25m.

Elsewhere, Marcus Rashford looks set to stay with the Daily Telegraph reporting progress has been made on a new contract on fresh terms worth upwards of £250,000 per week.

Goalkeeper Dean Henderson could join him in putting speculation over his own future to bed with a new deal too.

United are also thought to be head of the queue to sign Sporting’s Bruno Fernandes after the Portuguese club’s manager admitted he was likely to leave this summer.

He could replace Paul Pogba, who told former Juventus team-mates he would like to re-sign for the Turin club during the birthday party of Andrea Barzagli, according to a report in Italy.

United are rumoured to be in early talks with Inter Milan about the possibility of selling Romelu Lukaku to the Serie A club, but the two sides are way apart on their valuation.

Inter are hoping to do an initial loan deal with a view to making the move permanent totalling £62, but United want to recoup most of the £75m they paid Everton for the striker.

In a more far-fetched piece of news from Italy and Tuttosport, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has given his representatives the green light to move to Old Trafford should they come chasing him in the event of Lukaku’s departure, though exactly how Arsenal would feel about such an approach is less clear.

And Paris Saint-Germain are set to announce Ander Herrera's signing on Monday.
