Manchester United transfer news LIVE Leicester City win reaction and takeover latest

Manchester United's good run of form continued on Sunday with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Leicester City at Old Trafford.

Despite having been under the cosh for large parts of the opening stages, United drew first blood in the 25th minute through Marcus Rashford who broke the offside trap to produce a smart finish. The Reds rallied after the interval and doubled their advantage through their in-form forward who once again broke the Leicester defensive line to score.

Just after the hour mark, Jadon Sancho finished off a lovely team move to secure the win and leave the Reds just five points behind the Premier League leaders Arsenal. Progress on the United takeover will continue today after two bids were announced for the club over the weekend.

One bid is being fronted by Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani while the other has been put forward by INEOS owner and self-proclaimed United supporter, Sir Jim Ratcliffe. At this stage, it is not yet known whether any other parties have put themselves into the running to buy the club.
