While a number of sides are right in the middle of their pre-season friendly match schedule, there are also plenty of them still active in the transfer market and that could have some bearing on how those early contests unfold.

There’s a lot to like about the business that Manchester United has conducted so far this season with the long-awaited arrival of Jadon Sancho finally coming to fruition. Now the Red Devils seem to be just about the unveil the signing of central midfielder Rafael Varane from Real Madrid - a capture that could wind up proving to be one of the best this summer.
Many assume that they could still be in the market for a right back, Kieran Trippier’s name has been bandied about for this, but they do appear to have one of the most balanced squads in quite some time.
The potential departure of Paul Pogba is proving to be an interesting subplot and it appears as though a number of United fans and punters are keen to see the Frenchman depart, feeling as though his large wage packet and enormous ego could hold the side back going forward.
With Pogba out of contract next summer, United are likely to offload him and recoup some of the massive outlay they have spent over the last few months. Paris Saint Germain are said to be keen on the Frenchman and United would certainly be ready to conduct that move.
Manchester United lead off the action on the opening Saturday of the English Premier League season and their match up against Leeds United could prove to be anything but straightforward if Leeds are able to replicate the form that they demonstrated last season.
