Cristiano Ronaldo will not travel with the Manchester United squad for the pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia. A United spokesperson "Cristiano Ronaldo will not be part of the Manchester United party scheduled to depart for our pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia on Friday.

Juventus enquire about Ansu Fati with no luck.

Bercelona made clear that the youth team player will not be going anywhere, as he is one of the big starlets ahead of the future.

He has a release clause of 170 million euros and this will become 400 when Ansu Fati is promoted to the first team. He is the latest name on a long list which has already been probed by Juventus.
