12pm Man Utd news: Toby Alderweireld, Saudi prince, Di Maria, Luke Shaw bumper deal, David De Gea to PSG

Find out all the latest on the talks and the best transfer news from Manchester United with our daily round-up.

TOBY OR NOT TOBY?

MANCHESTER UNITED could risk losing out to Barcelona in their pursuit of Toby Alderweireld.

With Samuel Umtiti a long term absentee, the Catalans are lining up a move for the Spurs centre-back in January.

MARI-GOLD

ANGEL DI MARIA could be in line for a return to English football, three years after leaving Old Trafford following a disastrous £59.7m move.

Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho was a fierce critic of Louis Van Gaal's decision to sell the Argentine at a £15m loss just just one season into his United career.

GLAZE OVER?

MANCHESTER United could be set for a major cash injection from a Saudi Arabian prince – as he looks to rival Manchester City's Middle Eastern owners in the global football business.

Mohammad bin Salman is worth around £850billion and is said to be interested in one day replacing the Glazers as the Red Devils' owner.

SHAW THING

LUKE SHAW is set to sign a bumper new contract with Manchester United in a stunning deal which will see him earn £150,000-a-week.

The full-back, who is currently on £100,000-a-week, will become one of the world's top earning defenders.

PRINCELY SUMS

SAUDI prince Mohammad bin Salman is set to meet the Glazers to discuss investing in United.

But who is the man with enough money to rival anyone in the spending stakes?

REDDY TO GO

JESSE LINGARD and Luke Shaw were among the injured United stars taking part in training as they look to get fit for Saturday's Chelsea clash.

Phil Jones also missed out on an England call-up due to injury – but hopes to be available this weekend.

MORRISON'S CAREER UN-RAVEL-ING

FORMER Manchester United youth product Ravel Morrison has suffered another setback in his professional career as Lazio prepare to 'give up' on him.

The Italians had loaned Morrison to Mexican outfit Atlas – having once been tipped as the best youngster from the Red Devils' academy in decades – and now could see his contract torn up upon his return.

UNITED'S DUTCH COMPETITION

Paris Saint-Germain have joined the race for Manchester United targets Frenkie de Jong and Matthijs de Ligt.

Barcelona are also interested in the Ajax duo, as they continue to prove why they are among the brightest talents in the game.

PARIS SAINT-GEA

UNITED goalkeeper David De Gea is a transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain following concerns over a new deal.

The Red Devils hope to sign the Spaniard to a new contract extension – but the goalkeeper has yet to put pen-to-paper and could leave for free in 18 months.
