What the papers say

Manchester United are continuing their pursuit of Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish, reports the Manchester Evening News. Tottenham previously expressed interest in the 24-year-old and United are looking to make a move in the summer, along with an attempt to bring in Leicester’s James Maddison, the paper says.

Another new recruit wanted by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is Martin Odegaard, with scouts watching the Real Madrid player during his loan spell at Real Sociedad, according to the Daily Star.

A fourth name on United’s summer shortlist is Jonathan David, who has 30 goals in 58 league appearances for Belgian side Gent reports the Daily Mail.
