Timo Werner boost
Manchester United have been handed a boost in the hunt for Timo Werner.
The RB Leipzig striker is under consideration by the Red Devils, according to the Manchester Evening News, but was thought to be heading to Liverpool.
However, a move to Anfield appears to be off the cards because the Reds are going to cut back on their spending because of the coronavirus crisis, the Daily Mirror claim.

Manchester United have decided they will not be breaking their transfer record for top target Jadon Sancho, according to Bleacher Report.
The Red Devils are eager to land the England international, who has dazzled in the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund.
But they have decided not to spend more than £89million on a single player in the upcoming transfer window due to the coronavirus crisis.
The club’s current record signing is Paul Pogba, who returned to Old Trafford from Juventus in 2016.
