About this episode

In your podcatchers a day earlier than planned, it's a transfer junkie special (especially for Andy) with news that Bruno has decided to stay at Old Trafford top of the shop.

Meanwhile, the Matheus Cunha deal is done and another right-sided forward impressing in the Premier League, Bryan Mbeumo, also wants to join the club (that's according to our colleague David Ornstein).

The price tags on those two forwards presumably requires some transfer income. We have a think about all the candidates but especially Jadon Sancho after Chelsea decided to take a £5m hit rather than progress his loan deal to a permanent transfer.
