Man United are reportedly considering a move for 20-year-old Benfica winger Goncalo Guedes, who is valued at around £26 million (€30 million).

United also continue to ponder a bid for Benfica defender Victor Lindelof. The 22-year-old is valued at £38m (€44m) and could join the Red Devils in the summer.

Wayne Rooney could be set for a big pay day, with the England captain likely to be offered £700,000 a week by Chinese Super League champions Guangzhou Evergrande.

Retro Deal of the Day: Xisco to Newcastle

In all Newcastle’s ill-advised signings over the years, the £5.7m (€6.6m) purchase of Xisco has to be up there in terms of notoriety.

Bought from Deportivo La Coruna after a less-than-convincing record of 12 goals in 44 appearances for the Spanish side, the former Spain U21 international made nine appearances and scored once over a five-year period.

After underwhelming loan spells at Deportivo and Racing Santander, he was released by the Magpies and joined Spanish second division side Cordoba, where his appearance and goalscoring tally improved considerably.

In 2016, he joined his current club — Thai outfit Muangthong United FC.
