Going big
Manchester United have stepped up their pursuit of Portuguese duo Joao Felix and Bruno Fernandes as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer aims to make a flying start to his summer overhaul. The Norwegian expects to recruit as many as five new signings during the next transfer window – aiming for additions in every area of his squad. Felix and Fernandes are two of his leading targets and in recent weeks United have further explored the possibility of bringing them to Old Trafford for a potential combined fee of £150m. One major concern is both players’ willingness to sign for a club that may not be involved in the Champions League next season.

Jovic going to Real, not Barca or Chelsea
Luka Jovic is a great striker, young (class of 1997) and absolute perspective. He’ll drive the Eintracht against Chelsea in the semi-final round of the Europa League. And did you know that he considers one of the best specialists Sarri, very compatible with her charts if there was a chance. Instead, blocking the market has put out the Blues that – otherwise – would have made a concrete offer. Instead, it remains the super estimate of Sarri and the apprehension that Jovic will create in Frankfurt. Its future seems written, indeed just goes wrote (in the sense that you have to put down on paper). The Real has brought – as told – far ahead, rating between 65 and 70 million for reserve striker from guaranteed future.

While Barca, after seeing him 20 times, negotiated with Luka Jovic’s agents and took its decision, the name of the striker appeared on the front pages of newspapers with the priority goal of the Real Madrid. An interest not worried in the Camp Nou because they had control of the negotiation. Now no longer. Barca has told negotiators that he renounces the signing of Jovic . If you want to Zidane, he has free rein.
