'AC Milan considering Amorim-Ugarte reunion'
AC Milan are considering a move for Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte, according to The Mirror.
Milan have appointed former United boss Ruben Amorim as their new head coach, who could look to make Ugarte his first signing since returning to management.
United signed the Uruguay international from Paris Saint-Germain for 42m in 2024 but he has fallen out of favour at Old Trafford.
Ugarte started just eight Premier League games last season, with current United boss Michael Carrick informing him that he was not part of his plans moving forward.
Leipzig want more than 86m for Liverpool target Diomande
RB Leipzig want significantly more than the 86m Liverpool have indicated they are prepared to pay for teenage winger Yan Diomande, according to Sky in Germany.
Leipzig would like to keep the 19-year-old for another season and have plans to offer him a new contract with a pay rise. He is currently earning around 33,000 per week plus bonuses.
Liverpool are aware of the widespread interest in the Ivory Coast winger, who impressed in his nation's World Cup opener as they beat Ecuador 1-0.
Paris Saint-Germain are among the most serious of Liverpool's competition for Diomande, but Sky in Germany reports that there has been no offer from the back-to-back European champions for the winger.
Manchester City, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are the other clubs that have been closely monitoring Diomande's progress.
The 86m fee Liverpool are ready to pay at this stage would dwarf the Premier League's record transfer for a teenager, surpassing the 58.9m Manchester United agreed to sign Leny Yoro from Lille for in the summer of 2024.
It has been a remarkable rise for Diomande, who was signed by Leipzig from Leganes last summer for 17.3m (20m). He had started just half a dozen games for the Spanish side.
Two years ago the Ivorian was training at an athletic academy in Florida and now he finds himself as one of the most in-demand footballers in Europe.
