– Negotiations are underway between Manchester United and Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap, reports The Athletic. The club have reportedly held a “face-to-face” meeting with the 22-year-old, who was permitted by his current club to travel to Manchester for talks as the Red Devils look to reinforce their attack. Delap is expected to take time before making his final decision, with Chelsea also among the clubs interested in securing what would be a £30 million deal due to the relegation clause in his current deal at Portman Road.

Wirtz has 16 goals and 15 assists in 41 games across all competitions and The Times claims that Leverkusen would want at least €140m from his transfer.
