Man Utd weigh up Ryerson move

Manchester United are considering a move for Borussia Dortmund full-back Julian Ryerson, but a deal hinges on clearing space in the squad first.
The Norwegian international’s incredible creative output in the Bundesliga has drawn serious admiration from Old Trafford bosses, who are looking to upgrade their flanks.
The Daily Star explains: "Sky Sport Deutschland has suggested that United must offload Noussair Mazraoui if the club hopes to finalise a swoop for Borussia Dortmund full-back Julian Ryerson. The club are believed to be amongst the teams tracking the Norway international.
"Ryerson has chalked up 15 assists in 31 Bundesliga outings this campaign, which allegedly 'has not gone unnoticed' by United."

Europe's elite tracking Vuskovic

Tottenham Hotspur face a major battle to keep hold of teenage defensive prodigy Luka Vuskovic as continental heavyweights prepare summer bids.
The Croatian starlet has caught the eye during a highly impressive loan stint in Germany, leaving Spurs with a difficult decision to make regarding his future.
The Evening Standard reports: "Vuskovic has impressed on loan at Bundesliga side Hamburg this season, and has attracted interest from European giants Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
"The Croatian defender is currently set to return to Spurs, but has previously stated his desire to remain at Hamburg and play alongside his brother, Mario, who is currently serving a drugs ban.
"Vuskovic, who has been called up to Croatia’s World Cup squad, will not be short of options this summer, and he admits he faces a difficult decision regarding his future.
"In an ideal world, Spurs would likely want to integrate Vuskovic into the first team next season. Vuskovic will not be short of suitors this summer, with Serie A champions Inter Milan also reported to be interested in signing the hotly tipped centre-back."
