Manchester United are trying to find a resolution for Jadon Sancho, while Raheem Sterling has also been linked.
Let's recap where we were 24 hours ago....
Developments have continued, with deals for both players difficult due to high wages being paid by both United and Chelsea for the players.
And on United's part, there is no desperation. Sancho could simply be made to stay and fight for his place, while Sterling is a very divisive potential signing among supporters.
Fabrice Hawkins, who claimed Juventus' agreement with Sancho, adds further detail by saying the Manchester United winger has spoken with the Bianconeri's manager Thiago Motta.
Juventus are now attempting to reach an agreement on Sancho's salary. A deal would be a loan - which could lead to a permanent deal.
As for Raheem Sterling, Manchester United are not the only team in the mix, and may have backed off a little.
Chelsea now see Arsenal as a possible destination for the winger. In turn, they believe if Sterling leaves, this will faciliate their own move for Jadon Sancho, who is still open to a move to the London club.

Winger not a priority for Manchester United While United could still move for Sterling, landing a winger does not really appear like it should be a priority.
United fans would quite like to see another striker added to the mix, while there is a continued problem at left-back amid constant injury issues for Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.
A new injury for Mason Mount could also raise the possibility of a Marcel Sabitzer style emergency signing in midfield, an area already lacking in depth.
The most likely outcome is there are no surprise signings at all, but we can't rule out the option that Ineos pull a late rabbit out of the hat.
