Manchester United are expected to be one of the most active Premier League clubs on transfer deadline day as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of the 17:00 cut-off – or risk falling away in the title race against their closest rivals.
United are looking towards Leicester City’s English defender Harry Maguire as a potential deadline day arrival, having been put off in their pursuit of Tottenham’s Toby Alderweireld, while Barcelona’s Yerry Mina remains an outside bet to arrive at Old Trafford. However, Jose Mourinho has attempted to play down the prospect of signing anyone in his press conference earlier this morning.
United also face a fight to keep Paul Pogba at the club, with Barcelona keen to sign the midfielder if he can force his way out after another falling out with Jose Mourinho. As if that wasn’t enough, we’ll also have all the latest build-up ahead of the new Premier League season from 09:00 ahead of United’s curtain-raiser against Leicester tomorrow night.

We play Real Madrid and we have no more players than what we have. Antonio Valencia comes from holiday – I think too much holiday for him. His condition was not good when he was back, then injury and also go back.Anthony Martial has the baby and after the baby is born – beautiful baby, full of health, thank God – he should be here and he is not here.
So we have Alexis (Sanchez) and (Juan) Mata who play every minute of every match and now we have Real Madrid and after that Bayern Munich and that’s our start.
I would like two more players. I don't think I'm going to have two. I think it's possible I'm going to have one.
I gave my club a list of five names a few months ago. I wait to see if it's possible to have one of these players.
