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.

Form and standings can only tell part of the story when FYR Macedonia and Scotland cross paths in the UEFA Nations League, and pride alone should guarantee a contest. The hosts will hope that the the home ground crowd can inspire a performance, whatever the numbers suggest. Scotland's away form is hard to read, but they will arrive with the belief that they can trouble their hosts. He was sacked by Fiorentina after Che Adams' late goal for Torino left them bottom of the Serie A table with three defeats out of three.

The tactical battle could prove decisive. FYR Macedonia may lean on their home advantage to dictate the tempo, but Scotland have shown they can be dangerous when allowed to play on their own terms. No wonder the skipper had talked of a 'new Aston Villa' in the pre-match press conference with what seemed like genuine excitement.

Individual moments of quality could tip the balance. Both sides possess players capable of producing something out of nothing, and a single flash of brilliance may be all that separates them. The wide areas will be a key battleground, with full-backs and wingers on either side capable of swinging the contest one way or the other.

With the sides closely matched, the outcome may well hinge on which team takes its chances on the day. With the sides so closely matched, a 1-1 stalemate looks the most likely way this one ends. With positions in the UEFA Nations League table to defend and momentum to chase, neither side can afford to leave anything in the tank.
