Manchester United will have a "mouthwatering" attack if they sign Jadon Sancho and keep hold of Paul Pogba this summer, according to Rio Ferdinand. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been tipped to add a highly-rated Borussia Dortmund talisman to his ranks when the transfer market reopens. Sancho has emerged as one of the finest young talents of his generation since swapping Manchester City for Westfalenstadion in 2017, and United have been strongly linked with a move for the 20-year-old over the last few months. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/man-utd-will-have-mouthwatering-attack-if-they-sign-sancho/1gjrt7zswatag1n3nm75wl4qxn" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Simon Mignolet claims to have no regrets at having left&nbsp;Liverpool&nbsp;for&nbsp;Club Brugge&nbsp;in 2019, only to then see Alisson endure injury issues at Anfield and Jurgen Klopp’s side surge to the top of the Premier League table. Having slipped down the pecking order on Merseyside,&nbsp;a Belgium international goalkeeper opted to head home after nine years in English football. Minutes could have been found had the 32-year-old opted to stay put, with&nbsp;Adrian taking in 18 outings during the 2019-20 campaign, but Mignolet stands by his decision to move on. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/mignolet-no-regrets-liverpool-exit-alisson-injuries/ycv9t6hslx7t1du1p28gqisto" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Former Sporting Lisbon manager Sinisa Mihajlovic says the club hasn't paid him the full €3 million compensation for unfair dismissal after he was removed in June 2018. A statement from Mihajlovic said:&nbsp;“Sporting Lisbon as of today have not paid me the money that is owed. Since the start of the year, since the club first recognised this debt, they have done nothing but try to delay payment. “This behaviour is unacceptable and if forced I will go back to UEFA to receive the full sum. I’ll go all the way, even if it means excluding Sporting from UEFA competitions.”

Only Kylian Mbappe is currently worth more than Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho, according to former Liverpool man Dietmar Hamann.

Donny van de Beek would be “perfectly suited to the&nbsp;Juventus&nbsp;midfield and Italian football in general”, says Bryan Roy, with the&nbsp;Ajax&nbsp;star being heavily linked with leading sides across Europe. Roy told TuttoJuve: “Donny would be perfectly suited to the Juventus midfield and Italian football in general. He is another of those lads from the golden generation that I know so well, as both he and Matthijs de Ligt were in my squad." <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/van-de-beek-perfectly-suited-to-juventus-roy-talks-up-serie/14j8yu9qr28me13t8had4sunso" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

Willian “could do well” at&nbsp;Barcelona&nbsp;if he opts to head for Camp Nou as a free agent&nbsp;says Rivaldo, but a reunion with former&nbsp;Chelsea&nbsp;boss Jose Mourinho at&nbsp;Tottenham&nbsp;is another “good option”. Rivaldo told Betfair: "Willian has been linked in the past with Barcelona and I think he could do well there, because of his personality and ability to make the difference at important moments." <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/willian-could-do-well-at-barcelona-but-mourinho-reunion-at-spurs-/1bb8k8a36smxu1s2fnkfplu3eo" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

Manchester United will favour a move for Aston Villa playmaker Jack Grealish over one for Leicester midfielder James Maddison, claims the <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-united-transfer-james-maddison-18174340" target="_blank">Manchester Evening News</a>. The Red Devils have been heavily linked with two Premier League rivals, but feel the Villans captain can be signed easier and cheaper than an alternative with the Foxes.

Liverpool&nbsp;have been warned off a move for&nbsp;RB Leipzig&nbsp;star Timo Werner, with Dietmar Hamann suggesting that “young Michael Ballack” Kai Havertz would be a better option than a striker with no obvious role at Anfield. The former Reds star told Sky Sports: “I’m sure there are players out there who might help Liverpool next season more than Timo Werner.” <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/liverpool-warned-off-werner-hamann-young-ballack-havertz/wub380otq8v71s9wwcwfrc6oq" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

Paul Parker is not convinced that&nbsp;Manchester United&nbsp;should be looking at investing&nbsp;£100 million ($125m) in&nbsp;Borussia Dortmund&nbsp;winger Jadon Sancho. The former Red Devils defender has told Eurosport: "There are clubs like United who are willing to spend big money, but this sort of fee could leave them with egg on their face. £100m is a lot of money for a player that an English club have let go already." <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/paying-100m-for-sancho-could-leave-man-utd-with-egg-on-their/cdr6ratg9ewe1kt1v3qkpaotz" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

James Maddison should be favoured over Jack Grealish if&nbsp;Manchester United&nbsp;are looking to spend “big, big money” in the next window, says Paul Parker, with the Leicester playmaker considered to be more of a guarantee for success than a “big fish in a small pond” at&nbsp;Aston Villa. The Red Devils are said to still be in the market for added creativity, despite landing Bruno Fernandes in January and waiting on a return to form and fitness from Paul Pogba. Raids on Premier League rivals are being mooted, with Grealish and Maddison expected to figure prominently on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s wish list.

Liverpool&nbsp;are unlikely to spend big in the next transfer window, admits Jamie Carragher, with “a better Divock Origi” likely to be the only entry on Jurgen Klopp’s wish list. The Reds have found considerable value in their recent forays into a difficult market.

Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he is dreaming of retracing his steps back to&nbsp;Tottenham&nbsp;one day, revealing that he hopes to return and win a trophy that eluded him during his time in charge. Pochettino transformed Spurs into one of the top sides in&nbsp;England&nbsp;during his five years with the team, leading them to the brink of silverware but never getting over the final hurdle. Tottenham once finished second and twice finished third in the Premier League under Pochettino's stewardship, and also reached the 2018-19&nbsp;Champions League&nbsp;final in which the Lilywhites fell to current title holders&nbsp;Liverpool. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/i-want-to-win-a-title-with-tottenham-before-i-die-pochettino/12r3ptw53w7431vw3b7guslc5m" target="_blank">Read the full story here on Goal!</a>

I extended my contract a couple of months ago and I am so happy, but after that, we'll see," the Brazilian told <a href="https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11096/11979469/fernandinho-interview-learning-to-play-centre-back-and-mentoring-manchester-citys-young-stars" target="_blank">Sky Sports</a>.&nbsp; "If we have another conversation about another contract in the future, I would be happy.

Ed Woodward has reiterated&nbsp;Manchester United’s commitment to backing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s rebuild as they aim to be “highly competitive” in the transfer market. Solskjaer’s position at the club has come under scrutiny since he was given the job on a permanent basis 13 months ago.&nbsp; Mixed results led for calls from some for the Norwegian to be sacked. However, the message from the board has always been that the treble winner would be given the time and resources needed to complete the rebuild he has started. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/man-utd-aim-to-be-highly-competitive-in-transfer-window-as/1t7m28fnpr6iq1kliqu27lwfx9" target="_blank">Read the full story here on Goal</a>
