United are one of several Premier League clubs weighing up whether to meet Bologna’s €25m (£21.7m) valuation for Jhon Lucumi, according to Corriere di Bologna.

Both Bremer SV and Kickers Emden will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Regionalliga - Nord. The hosts have struggled for consistency, WLDLL in their last five pointing to a win rate of 25%. The visitors have been a mixed bag on the road, W in their last five and a win rate of 37.5% reflecting their unpredictability. Where Bremer SV have leaned on defensive discipline, Kickers Emden have often taken the initiative going forward, and that stylistic difference should shape the contest. The fact that Oxford ultimately fell five points short of the total needed to stay in the Championship shows that it would have required top-half - almost play-off - form during the second half of the season.

The tactical battle could prove decisive. Bremer SV may lean on their home advantage to dictate the tempo, but Kickers Emden have shown they can be dangerous when allowed to play on their own terms. Schalke had only 17 per cent of the possession but, having visited the club to interview their charismatic coach Miron Muslic, that is hardly a surprise.

Neither side is short on individuals capable of tilting the balance, and the duel between the two squads' chief creators could prove particularly pivotal. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. But this only highlights the gulf between Van Hecke and every other defender in the Premier League even more.

Without the market to lean on, the contest feels genuinely open — and the outcome may come down to which side handles the occasion better. Neither side holds a clear edge, and a 3-3 draw would be a fitting reflection of the balance between them. Whatever the outcome, the Regionalliga - Nord fixture promises a meaningful contest with real implications for both clubs. England captain Harry Kane is likely to sign a new deal to extend his stay at Bayern Munich despite interest from Barcelona.
