The news is coming thick and fast at Old Trafford as Manchester United prepare themselves for the 2019/20 campaign. Today's transfer roundup for the Red Devils includes good news in the hunt for a star defender, interest in a new full-back and a potential new contract offer for a star player.

De Ligt urged to make United move

According to Sport, Matthijs de Ligt has been encouraged by his advisers to make a move to Manchester United this summer. The plan would still be to make a switch to Barcelona at some point in the future, but they feel the Dutchman would get far more playing time currently with the Premier League side.

Aarons sighted as Wan-Bissaka alternative

If United are unable to sign Aaron Wan-Bissaka, for whom they have already had a bid rejected, they will look at Norwich City's Max Aarons according to Sky Sports. The teenager was a vital part of Norwich's promotion to the Premier League last season.

De Gea waiting for new deal

Spanish goalkeeper David De Gea is waiting for a new contract at United amidst interest from Paris Saint-Germain according to the Telegraph. United do not want to lose their number one this summer and, with just one year left on his contract, De Gea is expecting a new deal to be offered.
