Isak to Man Utd?
Manchester United legend Teddy Sheringham believes joining the club is “still a highlight of anyone’s career”.
The former England star believes Alexander Isak would consider leaving Newcastle for Old Trafford “without a doubt” and considers him the “perfect signing” for Ruben Amorim.
Sheringham told BoyleSports: “Manchester United is still a massive draw for any player and playing for the club is still a highlight of anyone’s career.
“Would Alexander Isak consider joining United if a bid came in? Without a doubt.
“I’m not saying a deal will get done but he would be the perfect signing for United.
“He can lead the line and score goals and could be a statement signing for the new regime.
” He is full of confidence at the moment and could lead by example.”
Kolo Muani blow?
Juventus are convinced they are leading the race to sign Paris Saint-Germain star Randal Kolo Muani.
