Transfers: Chelsea target Griezman, Grealish 'warned off' City
Manchester United have reportedly made it clear they will not be letting Alex Telles leave the club on loan this summer. The Brazilian is deemed an important part of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's squad despite Luke Shaw's impeccable form.

Jose Mourinho is planning to overhaul his new squad which features a host of former United players including Chris Smalling and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Telles won't be a part of that though and he has already outlined his desire to improve at United next season.
“I believe I've made the most of this season,” he told United's official website in June. “I've learnt a great deal, I learnt a lot of things, I've developed as a player and a person as well.
“I'm really happy with my first season at United and I'm sure that next season will be even better.

“I think I always took the opportunity to do my best whenever I was on the pitch.
"I had good games, with the adaptation process the first season isn't easy, but I believe that when Ole gave me the opportunity and placed his trust in me and put me on the pitch, I did my best.
“I'm sure that I'll continue doing even better to spend more time on the pitch and get a lot more minutes.”
United would now like to replicate their strength at left-back on the right side of defence, with competition for Aaron Wan-Bissaka amongst their priorities this summer.
