Manchester United will aim to secure Champions League spot next week and will look to kickstart their summer transfer plans once their place is confirmed.
Manchester United have two chances to secure their spot in next season's Champions League.
The Red Devils are fourth in the Premier League and will aim to follow in the footsteps of Newcastle to secure their spot in Europe's top table. They need just one point from the last two games of the season to overcome Liverpool's challenge.
Erik ten Hag's side will face Chelsea on Thursday, after which they will wrap up their campaign at home to Fulham. Once there, they hope to play in vain. Here are the latest headlines from Old Trafford over the past 24 hours... Ten Hag settles disagreement with Glazer
Ten Hag has lost patience with Anthony Martial at Manchester United as he faces discord with Joel Glazer over his transfer plans.
The Glazers are clearly big fans of Martial, who joined the club from Monaco in the summer of 2015. The Frenchman has outplayed many of the top strikers at the club during that time, including Memphis Depay, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez.
The Red Devils have prioritized recruiting a big name in the upcoming summer transfer window.

Anthony Martial could leave Man Utd this summer
Ajax reunited in sight
In terms of transfers, Ten Hag could be ready to strike his former club Ajax for a third time, with Mohammed Kudus set to leave in the summer. His agent Jennifer Mendelewitsch has confirmed that the 22-year-old has turned down a new deal in Amsterdam and could move this summer. Speaking to Dutch outlet De Telegraaf, she said:
"I think it would be better for Ajax and Mohammed if he transferred now. Now is the right time."
"He ignored the offer to extend his contract until the summer of 2026. What I can say is that after the World Cup and this season, there is a lot of interest in Kudus."
Casemiro helps Neymar deal
Man United midfielder Casemiro is believed to be helping the Red Devils try to secure a deal from Paris Saint-Germain for superstar striker Neymar this summer. The former Barcelona player is seriously considering leaving the French capital this summer, six years after a staggering £189m move from Camp Nou.
According to L'Equipe, United are not the only top British team to express an interest in Neymar, but Casmemiro's influence could help Erik ten Hag's side negotiate any deal. The 31-year-old clearly has no objection to standing with his Brazilian colleague at club level when he claims to help MU bid for the signature of this superstar.
