Jean-Clair Todibo to Man Utd transfer 'expected' as Sofyan Amrabat deadline set
Manchester United have eight days to make a strong finish to what's been an eventful but divisive summer transfer window.
The Red Devils have splashed out nearly £200million on Andre Onana, Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund, but judging by their poor start to the new Premier League season, manager Erik ten Hag needs even more backing. United scraped to an unconvincing 1-0 victory over Wolves in their opening game before slumping to a limp 1-0 loss away to Tottenham on Saturday.
Locked in a battle with arch-enemies Liverpool over Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, supporters are baying for new signings, although exits are just as important. The Red Devils have already lined up Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir - who's had a medical - in anticipation of Dean Henderson's departure, with a centre-back also on the agenda should Harry Maguire leave. Here's a round-up of the latest transfer news from Old Trafford.
Tobdio 'expected' to make United move
French side Nice expect Manchester United to sign defender Jean-Clair Todibo before the transfer window closes, according to L'Equipe. The Red Devils are linked with a move for the former Barcelona centre-back, 23, in the event of Harry Maguire leaving.
Speculation cooled last week after Maguire's £30million switch to West Ham fell through, but it seems that all isn't settled at the Allianz Riviera. Todibo is believed to be keen on a move to Old Trafford and United's other centre-back target, Benjamin Pavard, is set to join Inter Milan.

Fiorentina have told midfielder Sofyan Amrabat that he has until Friday to decide whether or not he wants to stay at the club. Corriere dello Sport report that Fiorentina chiefs want the Morrocan midfielder's future resolved swiftly, having not yet received an offer from Manchester United or fellow admirers Liverpool, who are also in the hunt for reinforcements.
Last weekend, CEO Joe Barone was quoted as saying by Labaro Viola: "We are always ready for other entries and exits. If there's someone who isn't happy, we can satisfy him between now and the end of the transfer window."
Pellistri in talks for Premier League loan
Manchester United winger Facundo Pellistri is set for another loan move, this time with newly promoted Premier League side Sheffield United. The MEN report that the Blades are in talks to sign him for the season, having lost both of their league matches so far.
Pellistri, 21, is liked by Erik ten Hag and the Red Devils want to hand him a new contract. However, the Uruguay international is set to spend the campaign away from Old Trafford and Bramall Lane could be where he calls home until next May.
