Sell Onana, buy Gyokeres
As the transfer window is now open again until 1 September, we asked for you to tell us one player you want to bring to Manchester United and one player you want the club to sell.Here are some of your comments:Carl: Semenyo in and Sancho out, one brings balance and the other endless problems.James: Sell Garnacho and buy Gyokeres. He is a proven goalscorer.David: Onana out, he's just not consistent. Toney in. We need a proven Premier League standard striker. We can't afford another 'let's hope he's good enough' type from a lower standard league.Tim: Sell Luke Shaw and buy Marc Guehi.Martin: Gyokores in and Hojlund out. We need to score more goals and this could be the season defining transfer.Faisal: Sell Onana and replace him with Porto keeper Diogo Costa.James: I would sell Garnacho and buy Wharton. Garnacho should fetch a decent fee and will do wonders from a PSR perspective. He is also a winger which doesn't truly fit Amorim's system. Wharton will bring a genuine, disciplined and athletic deep lying midfield playmaker which will allow Bruno to push up to more attacking areas where he is at his best. It will take a huge fee and wages to convince Palace to sell up and Wharton to go to a club with no European football.

A former Scotland international has been praised for his 'crucial' role in Florian Wirtz's record breaking move to Liverpool this summer - just three years after a move to Celtic collapsed at the final hurdle. The 22-year-old had his £116million transfer from Bayer Leverkusen rubber stamped yesterday, with Wirtz now becoming the English Premier League's record signing, surpassing the previous record transfer of £115million, which Chelsea paid Brighton for Moises Caicedo in 2023.

Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz will hope to win further trophies at Liverpool after departing Bayer Leverkusen this summer. | Getty Images During his official unveiling by the English champions, Wirtz explained why head coach Arne Slot had played a big role in convincing him to move to Liverpool, but also reserved high praise for ex-Scotland international Richard Hughes, who has been hugely successful in his role as the club's sporting director since his appointment almost exactly a year ago. 'The talks with the coach and Richard [Hughes] and everybody were, from the start or from the very first time, so good,' Wirtz told Liverpool's official media channel. 'It just kept going like this. Every time I spoke to one of the [people from] the club I felt like, 'this is the place I want to be' and so in the end I was really 100 per cent convinced I want to join Liverpool and it was the best choice.' Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano also heaped praise on Hughes, writing on his official X account: 'The Liverpool director has been crucial to make the deal happen. Three months of hard work behind the scenes to get Florian's green light in May and close the deal with Leverkusen on Tuesday last week.'

Poached from a similar role at AFC Bournemouth, the 45-year-old has been lauded for his work in replacing popular former manager Jurgen Klopp with Dutch head coach Slot last summer. Richard Hughes battles for the ball as Scotland Under-21s take on Belgium Under-21s at Dunfermline FC's East End Park. | SNS Group 0141 221 3602 Beginning his career with Atalanta's youth team, Hughes enjoyed a moderately successful playing career, making over 200 senior appearances for the likes of Portsmouth, AFC Bournemouth and Grimsby Town. However, it has been his work as a sporting director that has garnered the most attention. First joining the Cherries recruitment team following his retirement in 2014, he was appointed the club's technical director just two years later. Hughes found himself lined up for a similar role at Celtic in 2021, with the Hoops former managerial target Eddie Howe said to have been desperate to bring him to Glasgow if he was appointed manager at Celtic Park.

Rangers 'set' to offer Nicolas Raskin new deal amid interest
The Belgian has been linked with clubs in England and his former manager Philippe Clement even suggested he is ready to sign for a top half Premier League side after emerging as a leading player in the Gers squad last season. Raskin is currently contracted at Ibrox until 2027, meaning he would be heading into next summer's break with just a year left on his deal. The Scottish Sun is reporting new manager Russell Martin is keen to build his team around the 24-year-old and, as such, wants him tied down on a new contract. Sporting director Kevin Thelwell is on the same page and is ready to sanction an offer. Read more: Thelwell, along with the new US owners, want a far better player trading model in place. And committing Raskin to a new deal would be one step towards that. It would mean any interested clubs would then be aware they would be required to make a significant offer to prise him away. Discussions are yet to take place between Rangers chiefs and Raskin's representatives, but they are in the offing. It is believed the Belgium international is happy at Ibrox and keen to prolong his stay.

Frank Leboeuf slams 'foolish' Chelsea fans and sends warning after Flamengo loss
Frank Leboeuf branded anyone expecting Chelsea fans to challenge for major honours next season 'foolish' unless the club dramatically changes its transfer policy. After beginning their Club World Cup campaign with a win over Los Angeles FC, the Blues were handed a reality check by Flamengo last night. The Brazilian club recovered from the blow of conceding an early Pedro Neto goal and staged an impressive second half come back, eventually running out 3-1 victors. Chelsea finished last term in encouraging fashion, sealing Champions League qualification and winning the Conference League which sparked a defiant reaction from Enzo Maresca who had been regularly criticised over the course of a turbulent campaign. The arrival of Liam Delap in a 30million deal suggest Chelsea will persist with a policy of signing young, up and coming players which Leboeuf claims will continue undermine hopes of competing with the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City for the Premier League title.

Speaking on ESPN FC, he said: 'Your main concern should be that we all know, because we've been football players, that they are fragile, they are not consistent. 'You know you don't know where you're going to go. One game is going to be perfect and three days after you're going to get something horrendous. 'You know this because they showed it during the season. They finished fourth because the league wasn't good last season and if you want too much and you expect too much from Chelsea you're a fool. 'You really are a fool because this thing is settled on something very fragile. 'They don't have as I have always demanded one or two experienced players where you can put the basics on. 'You are betting on young players who can do great things but can also suddenly lose it. As long as you are working that way it will go like this. It's hard to say next season is going to be different. 'No, it won't be different unless they buy the players I want and pray for deeply. But it's not going to happen, it's not their way of football.' Chelsea's naivety and impetuosity was summed up against Flamengo by Nicolas Jackson's needless red card. The Senegal striker was shown a straight red card – just four minutes after coming off the bench – for an aggressive studs-up challenge on Ayrton Lucas. That moment of madness came amid a calamitous six-minute spell in the second period in which the Blues also conceded two goals to surrender their half-time lead. It was also Jackson's second dismissal in just four appearances having also been given his marching orders for a forearm crack on Newcastle's Sven Botman in a Premier League match last month. 'I want to say sorry,' Jackson wrote on Instagram on what was a 24th birthday to forget. 'To the club, the staff, my teammates, and all the fans watching, I let you down. More Trending 'Another red card… And honestly, I'm so angry at myself. I work hard every day to help the team not to put us in this kind of situation. 'I still don't fully understand how it happened. But one thing is clear: it wasn't intentional. Just a moment in football that went the wrong way. 'No excuses. I take full responsibility. I'll reflect, I'll grow, and I'll come back stronger for the badge and for everyone who believes in me. Sorry. Sorry, Sorry.'
