New contracts are the flavour of the month at Manchester United

Jose Mourinho wants Marcus Rashford and Marouane Fellaini to sign new contracts

Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho wants the club to offer the duo of Marcus Rashford and Marouane Fellaini new deals in the coming weeks. The Independent reports that Mourinho wants the spine of his squad to have long-term deals with the club and the Red Devils are also close to offering new deals for Ander Herrera and David De Gea. Herrera and Fellaini have just a year left on their current contracts and making them sign a new deal must be the first priority for the club.

Tottenham Hotspur to go back for Ross Barkley in January

Spurs were linked with Everton playmaker, Ross Barkley for the entire past summer only for no deal to happen between the parties concerned. But ESPN has now learned that Tottenham Hotspur will reignite their interest in Barkley in the winter market and will reportedly offer £30 million for his services.

Barkley has gone out of favour with the Toffees and is desperate for a move away from Goodison Park. Meanwhile, Spurs are seeing Barkley as an alternative to Mousa Dembele who is struggling this season with his foot problems.
