Sources: Utd beat Barca to Â¬10m French teen

Steve Nicol says Manchester United prioritise making money over winning, and it shows when you look at their starting XI.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer feels Man United and Romelu Lukaku will both benefit from the Belgian’s move to Inter Milan.

ESPN FC’s Steve Nicol says Romelu Lukaku will fit perfectly into Antonio Conte’s system at Inter Milan following his move from Manchester United.

ESPN FC’s Rob Dawson explains why Mario Mandzukic’s wage demands and Juventus’ inflated transfer fee means the Croatian will remain in Turin.

Manchester United have beaten competition from Barcelona and Bayern Munich to sign teenage French midfielder Hannibal Mejbri from Monaco.

The 16-year-old attacking midfielder will cost United €10 million, sources have told ESPN FC, with half due to the Monaco up front.

Tottenham and Leicester were also keen on Mejbri but the youngster has chosen to move to Old Trafford and will be part of Neil Ryan’s under-18 team when he receives international clearance from FIFA.

United have also announced new contracts for a number of academy players. Goalkeeper Paul Woolston and central defender Luca Ercolani, both members of the club’s under-23s, have penned new deals.

Meanwhile, Johan Guadagno, 16, a goalkeeper, has signed from Swedish club IF Brommapojkarna, alongside Dillon Hoogewerf, who has joined from Ajax.

Mateo Meija has also arrived from Spanish side Real Zaragoza. Along with Mejbri, United are also awaiting approval from FIFA for the signing of Bjorn Hardley, who was at NAC Breda.
