Today’s tell-all is clear and obvious, not that it matters
Reports from
Spain suggest
Real Madrid have placed a team of scouts in a VAR-type nerve centre, peering at screens all the better to “monitor” the movements of Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho and RB Salzburg striker Erling Braut Haaland. They won’t have seen much of the 19-year-old Englishman over the weekend after he was dropped from Dortmund’s squad as punishment for returning 24 hours late from international duty with
England, the latest in a series of time-keeping offences.
Manchester United are also understood to be keeping tabs on the two youngsters.
Manchester City are preparing to offer Raheem Sterling a new and improved deal worth £450,000 per week to keep any potential suitors – yes, you again Real Madrid – from trying to turn his head. Elsewhere in the city, Manchester United are considering making a move for former
Liverpool player Emre Can. The German midfielder’s move to
Juventus just hasn’t worked out and after a summer of speculation regarding his next move he’s only made three substitute appearances this season. £35m is the figure being mentioned.
