Don’t let the lockdown vibes fool you into thinking that the Premier League clubs are just as inactive on the market as you probably are at your home.
The halt on the sporting action hasn’t stopped the clubs from contemplating their squad plannings for the next season.
Manchester United, in particular, have been heavily rumored to complete the moves for players like Jadon Sancho and Jack Grealish.
Although rumors linking Sancho may have cooled down a bit after Dortmund’s unwillingness to lower their £100million price tag, United remain the frontrunners to sign Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish.
As a young British talent, the winger ticks all the boxes for the Red Devils. Reportedly, United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has only heard good things about the 24-year-old’s potential and character.

Although the price tag remains a key factor in the transfer, United fans may consider the deal not too far from reality as the Villa captain was caught liking a throwback post from United’s official Instagram handle.

At first glance, this could be nothing more than a mere coincidence. However, the fact that Grealish doesn’t even follow United’s Insta handle, to begin with, makes matters even more interesting.
How the Red Devils manage their transfer strategies in the pandemic-hit market remains to be seen, but there’s little doubt that the club would do everything to fulfil Solskjaer’s needs for the next season.
