Goals could be in short supply or plentiful — Varesina average 1.29 per game to Pro Sesto's 2.57, and that gap may dictate the rhythm of the contest. The Reds continue to retain an interest in the midfielder Manu Kone and left-back Lewis Hall, while one remaining high-profile departure this summer could come in the form of Marcus Rashford.

With positions in the Serie D - Girone D table to defend and momentum to chase, neither side can afford to leave anything in the tank. The Spaniard heading to Barca all but rules out a midfield departure from the Bernabeu and thus United will likely have to look elsewhere.
