      According to the Manchester Evening News, the Red Devils are interested in New England Revolution ace Petrovic.
      However, the Manchester giants have yet to make contact with the 23-year-old’s camp.
      And the Serbia international is not being considered as Erik ten Hag’s next No1.
      Ten Hag, though, will need to add an understudy after Jack Butland’s loan ended and he joined Rangers.

      The Dutch tactician is also likely to lose Tom Heaton, who will look for more regular minutes, and Dean Henderson with Nottingham Forest determined to turn his loan into a permanent deal.
      Petrovic has stood out in the US ever since his arrival last year and has attracted interest from other Premier League clubs as well.
      The Serb has a contract until 2025, with a one-year option to extend, and New England Revolution would seek a high fee.
      The youngster arrived from Serbian outfit Cukaricki, with whom he played in the Europa Conference League.

      Petrovic joined the American outfit as a replacement for current Arsenal ace Matt Turner.
      He is now considered as one of the best goalkeepers in the MLS as he kept seven clean sheets in 21 appearances last season and also saved four penalties.
      That led to the MLS Save of the Year award, while he also finished as runner-up for the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year gong behind Philadelphia Union’s Andre Blake.
      This season Petrovic has registered six clean sheets in 17 matches across all competitions. More

      He went on to claim that Bayern have been speaking with Kane’s family around the logistics of relocating to Bavaria.
      Falk says that the feeling coming out of Kane’s camp is that the striker is “still thinking” about a move to the Bundesliga.
      Bayern have retained an interest in Kane since the end of the season but faced competition from Manchester United and Real Madrid.
      However Daniel Levy’s firm £100million price tag has seen both United and Madrid cool their interest in Kane.

      United have limited funds available until their takeover is cleared, much to the frustration of manager Erik Ten Hag.
      They are unwilling to spend £100m on a 29-year-old that has a year left on his contract.
      Madrid meanwhile would struggle to raise the necessary funds having signed Bellingham in a British record £115m deal.
      Whether Bayern could afford to stump-up the £100m asking price remains to be seen but Spurs would be tempted to sell to a team outside the Premier League.
      Most read in Football
      The temptation will be particularly strong given Kane will be able to decide his own club next summer when his contract expires.
      Bayern are in the market for a striker having failed to replace Robert Lewandoswki after he left for Barcelona last year.
      One way in which they could fund the costly deal would be through player sales.
      Thomas Tuchel is prepared to let a number of high-profile players go as he enters his first full season in charge.
      Benjamin Pavard, Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry and Sadio Mane are all reportedly transfer listed. More

      Maddison, 26, is set to leave relegated Leicester this summer.
      The Foxes were hoping for £50million for their prize asset but with one year remaining on his deal, may well have to settle for closer to the £40m mark.
      Spurs and Newcastle were leading the race but SunSport understands the Magpies, who are closing in on the £55m signing of AC Milan midfielder Sandro Tonali, have gone quiet on the deal.
      A move to St James’ Park cannot be completely ruled out but it leaves Tottenham as front-runners to move for versatile midfielder Maddison, who netted ten goals and grabbed nine assists in the Premier League last term.

      New boss Ange Postecoglou is in need of new faces not just from a quality perspective but also numerically.
      Davinson Sanchez is set to leave the club while loanee Clement Lenglet has already gone back to Barcelona.
      Though there remains a possibility the French international, 28, who made 35 appearances for Spurs this term, could be re-signed permanently on a cut-price deal if a fee can be agreed.
      Tottenham will be looking to trim their squad with no European football next season and a number of loanees returning to an already well-stocked roster.
      But Postecoglou will likely want to assess the likes of Gio Lo Celso and Tanguy Ndombele, farmed out to Villarreal and Napoli respectively last term, before deciding on their futures.
      Spurs are close to their second signing of the summer in the form of Italian goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario from Serie A side Empoli.
      Reports from the stopper’s homeland have suggested Vicario could even undergo a medical at Spurs on Sunday.
      Loanee Dejan Kulusevski has already been signed permanently from Juventus for £25.7m, to be paid over six years.
      ROD’S RETURN
      Meanwhile, Rodrigo Bentancur is targeting a return to action in “two or three months” as he continues his recovery from a serious injury.
      The Uruguayan, one of Spurs’ best players this term, tore his anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during the 4-1 defeat at Leicester in February.
      He has taken a club physio with him to his home country where he has enjoyed time with his family. 
      But the midfielder will head back to Spurs next week where he plans to stay to continue his recovery and speak to new boss Ange Postecoglou for the first time.
      Bentancur, 25, told ESPN: “It’s a long injury, one of the most difficult in football, but the truth is that I’m having such a good time with my family.

      “I train the same every day, I do double shifts two or three times a week. I brought the club’s physiotherapist to Uruguay, we continue working and my knee is doing very well.
