Manchester United have held initial discussions with Burnley over a deal for Sander Berge as they explore a potential move for the midfielder.
It is understood Berge wants to make the move to Old Trafford. The 26-year-old has three years left on his contract at Burnley.
Berge was a shining light in the Clarets' midfield last season but could not prevent them suffering relegation back to the Championship.
However, Berge is not the only option on United's radar and dialogue remains open with Monaco over the signing of midfielder Youssouf Fofana.
It is thought a deal is there to be done for a player in the final year of his contract. AC Milan's interest has cooled after they were unable to agree a deal with Monaco.
Meanwhile, United's interest in Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte has cooled because of a significant gap in valuation. Going back to the negotiating table has not been ruled out but is likely to depend on PSG dropping their asking price.
Richard Rios of Palmeiras remains a player of interest but his fee could prove prohibitive. Another option is Fiorentina's Sofyan Amrabat, who United had on loan last season.
While it is not essential, United would ideally want to create squad space and increase budgets ahead of bringing in a player.
But as it stands, Fulham are not expected to return with a new bid for Scott McTominay. Galatasaray are interested in the Scotland international but have yet to come close to United's valuation.
Interest from Saudi Arabia in Casemiro has also cooled for now.
When does the summer transfer window open and close?
The 2024 summer transfer window officially closes on August 30 at 11pm UK time in the Premier League and 11.30pm in Scotland.
The Premier League has brought forward Deadline Day to link up with the other major leagues in Europe. The closing dates were set following discussions with the leagues in England, Germany, Italy, Spain and France.

Toby and Amass are inexperienced. They need to be loaned out to get game time and experience
not with the amount of injuries that we get during the season they will develop very fast with the minutes they'll be getting along the way

You a joke, with that theory so does Mainoo and Garnacho... They both play got experience in the first team... Coyller is good as good as Mainoo and a better CDM than him. Amass was only beaten by Salah once in 90 minutes... Those kids can ball Add Ethan as a sticker we complete... Only our young CB's need experience, they were uncoordinated and couldn't handle pressure...
when you become a coach, then use them. Do you think the premier league is a joke. when the result becomes awful, you will be the first person to complain. this time, let the coach do what he feels is the best

Sometimes i wonder why Saudi clubs will be cooling their interest on a big name, Example is Casemiro, What else do they want?? I thought they only go for big names?? Have they changed their strategy?? 😂
