Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is desperate for Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s takeover to be completed before January to boost his hopes of bringing in reinforcements. It is no secret that the struggling Red Devils are keen to bolster their ranks with a new centre-back and forward.<\/p>\n

However, it is expected that United must first clear the decks with highly-paid outcasts Jadon Sancho and Donny van de Beek among those up for sale.<\/p>\n

Chelsea are also counting down the days until Todd Bohely can open his chequebook once again and Mauricio Pochettino has already made a desperate public call for more players. The Blues risk having an over-inflated squad so will also be looking to trim the budget. Express Sport keeps you up to date with all the latest transfer rumours and gossip…<\/em><\/p>\n
