Sunday's Manchester United transfer talk news roundup: Gareth Bale, Sergio Reguilon, Benoit Badiashile

Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Manchester United on Sunday, September 13.

The summer transfer window has now begun, with rumours and speculation continuing to swirl as Manchester United eye possible reinforcements.

The Red Devils brought in Bruno Fernandes and Odion Ighalo in the final days of the winter window but are still expected to be active in the summer as they aim to restore their former glories.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings from Old Trafford.

Sunday morning's Manchester United transfer talk news roundup:


Gareth Bale, Sergio Reguilon 'train away from Madrid squad amid Man Utd links'

Gareth Bale and Sergio Reguilon have been training away from the rest of their teammates amid continued speculation over their futures at Real Madrid.

Both players have been heavily linked with a move away from the Bernabeu this summer, with Manchester United thought to be at the front of the queue.

Madrid are reportedly desperate to get Bale off their books and have offered to pay half of his wages if he leaves on loan, or to slash his asking price to £22m if he leaves permanently.

United's top transfer target for that area of the field remains Jadon Sancho, though, and Bale's wages could make a deal for the Welshman complicated.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side could make a move for left-back Reguilon, though, with the United boss having identified that as a position he wants to improve.

Marca reports that both players have been training away from the rest of their teammates, hinting that manager Zinedine Zidane does not see them as part of his plans for next season.

Both players are currently carrying injuries as well, though, and worked alongside Eden Hazard after the Belgian reportedly returned from international duty overweight.



Manchester United 'handed boost in Joshua King chase'

Manchester United have reportedly been given a boost in their pursuit of Joshua King, with Bournemouth open to offers for the striker.

The Red Devils have been linked with a move for the 28-year-old in the past two transfer windows as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continues to search for a permanent new striker.

King has only one year remaining on his contract at the Vitality Stadium and would welcome a move away following Bournemouth's relegation from the Premier League last season.

The Telegraph reports that the Cherries are now willing to listen to offers for the Norway international rather than risk losing him on a free transfer next summer.

King began his career at United and is thought to favour a return to Old Trafford, but Aston Villa and Fulham are also interested.

The forward will miss Bournemouth's opening match of the new Championship season this afternoon as he has stayed in Norway to undergo treatment on an injury.
