UEFA Champions League Draw: Manchester United And Bayern Munich In Group A, Borussia Dortmund To Face PSG In Group F
Manchester United will face the Bayern Munich of Harry Kane in this season's Champions League while Thursday's draw for the group stage also placed Paris Saint-Germain and Newcastle United together. Bayern and United will be favourites to advance from Group A which also includes Danish champions FC Copenhagen and Galatasaray, the Turkish champions. Group F, in contrast, looks to be the toughest of all with Saudi-owned Newcastle facing AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund as well as Qatar-backed PSG. Newcastle are appearing in the Champions League for the first time in 20 years and their lack of recent pedigree in Europe's elite club competition meant they were left lurking dangerously among the sides in pot four for the draw.

Transfers: Romelu Lukaku departs Chelsea for Roma in loan deal, Manchester City close in on Matheus Nunes
Chelsea's Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku has joined Roma on a season-long loan. The loan fee was not disclosed but Italian media valued the deal at €8 million, including bonuses. The 30-year-old will be reunited with Roma manager Jose Mourinho, who worked with him at Chelsea and Manchester United. "The welcome I've received from this club and its fans has excited me and given me even more motivation to give my all for my new team," Lukaku said. "I recently got the opportunity to speak with the owners, and I was impressed by their ambition. Now we must work, be humble, and grow game by game. For my part, I can't wait to be available to my team mates both on and off the pitch." Lukaku, who had a successful loan spell at Inter Milan last season, has reportedly agreed to a large wage cut. Roma have one point from their first two Serie A matches this season and host AC Milan on Friday.
