We had revealed in this segment earlier that United were interested in Newcastle United youngster Sean Longstaff, but were deterred by the Magpies' valuation of the player. The Red Devils valued the player at £20m, but Newcastle want £50m for the young midfielder. It was one reason why a deal had fallen through, despite the fact that United, at one point, were confident of securing his signature. However, it looks like the Red Devils have not given up on their target yet.

Sky Sports reports that Manchester United are still quite interested in Sean Longstaff, despite the difference in valuation between the two clubs. However, the Red Devils are yet to submit a bid.

The player himself is interested in a move and is hopeful that the two clubs can agree a deal. However, if negotiations do not reach a fruitful conclusion, Longstaff will remain committed to his club. Newcastle United do not wish to sell the player, who is firmly a part of their future plans.
