MANCHESTER UNITED may be without a full time manager for the forseeable future, but the club is determined to plough on with its rebuilding programme ahead of the World Cup and the appointment of a new boss.

And when the winning candidate does arrive at Old Trafford he may, according to The Guardian, bump into Edinson Cavani on the training ground. The paper claims that United believe they can prise the Uruguayan striker away from French champions Paris Saint-Germain, although they may have to fork out £60m for the 27-year-old.
