Getty Images SportTHE BIGGER PICTURE
The Red Devils are confident of signing Delap, although they will face fierce competition from Chelsea. The 22-year-old striker has a £30 million ($40m) release clause in his contract, which is now active after Ipswich's relegation from the Premier League was confirmed. The striker will evaluate his options and take some time before finalising his next destination.

United are also on the verge of sealing a transfer for Matheus Cunha from Wolves. The Premier League giants have agreed to trigger the Brazilian's £62.5 million ($83.4m) release clause, although they are likely to pay the full amount in three instalments.
AFPWHAT NEXT FOR MANCHESTER UNITED?
For now, Ruben Amorim's United side remain focused on winning their first trophy of the 2024-25 campaign as they face Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final in Bilbao on Wednesday. Winning the Europa League will guarantee United a place in next season's Champions League.
