Manchester United transfer news LIVE plus build up to Sheffield United vs Man Utd

Manchester United are hoping to come away from Bramall Lane with three points this evening when they take on the Premier League's bottom side Sheffield United.

The Blades have just one point from their first eight games and lost 8-0 the last time they played at home. United will be without Casemiro for this one as he nurses a small knock picked up on international duty back in Brazil.

There could be added buoyancy in the away end following last weekend's takeover news. While popular bidder Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al-Thani withdrew from the race on Saturday, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is set to take sporting control upon his expected 25 per cent investment.

That said, the Glazers remain in situ and so protests against the American owners are set to continue.
