Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants Newcastle midfielder deal completed this week

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants Manchester United to seal the signing of Sean Longstaff this week. United have already completed the signing of two players – Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James. Solskjaer wants a midfielder to join them and  he is eager to get the signing secured as soon as possible. Newcastle want £20million, as well as add-ons, for Longstaff and United have made the 21-year-old their priority midfield target ahead of Sporting Lisbon’s Bruno Fernandes and Tottenham’s Christian Eriksen. United are poised to lodge an official bid for Longstaff, but reports claim the offer will be £5m below Newcastle’s asking price.
