Agent Shaw
Luke Shaw has admitted to trying to convince some of his England team-mates to join him at Man Utd.
Harry Kane, Mason Mount and Declan Rice are just some of the Three Lions stars linked with switches to Old Trafford.
And Shaw is playing negotiator, saying: "I would love a few of them to join – I am not going to lie.
"I am speaking to them, telling them how good Manchester is, because I know their qualities.
"I know they are world-class players and they would be a massive help to us but I can only say so much. It is up to the club and whatever they decide, so we have to go from there."

Ten Hag desperate for Mount
Erik ten Hag is supposedly 100 per cent committed to signing Mason Mount and he is his main target.
Chelsea are holding out for £70million with United already seeing an opening offer of a rumoured £40million turned down by the Blues.
Talks are going and the move is still likely to happen given Chelsea's willingness to sell a player with 12 months left on his contract and who is struggling to agree an extension.

Mount move questioned
Ex-Chelsea defender Frank Leboeuf believes Mason Mount's move to Man Utd would be a sideways step.
He told ESPN: "If you want to move club, it’s because you think it’s a promotion. Here me well, I am not saying that Manchester United is at the same level as Chelsea, compared to last season.
"In terms of a club and what they want to achieve. I think there is only one club better than Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool. It’s Manchester City.
"I really think, if the player wants to move if he is available, then he has to look for something better, where he can get something out of it.
"So, I don’t understand the move of Havertz to Arsenal or Mount to Manchester United. Like I wouldn’t understand Christian Eriksen from Manchester United to Chelsea. That is the same level, for me."

Ten Hag's Rice fury
Erik ten Hag is said to be furious that Man Utd's delayed takeover has stopped them from bidding for Declan Rice.
The Red Devils boss feels West Ham skipper Rice would be a perfect addition and has been desperate to make an offer.
But United’s protracted takeover drama has let Arsenal move into pole position for the England ace, 24.
Ten Hag’s spending is restricted while the Glazers decide whether to sell or stay put — particularly as United are yet to offload any of the expensive dead wood in their squad.
Qatari Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani is edging closer to winning the takeover battle.
But Prem chiefs would still have to complete the Owners’ and Directors’ Test which takes around ten days — meaning Ten Hag’s hands may be tied for at least another two weeks.
