MANCHESTER UNITED are looking to keep their remote chances of Champions League football alive.
But work is already going on off the pitch to get the club ready for the arrival of Erik ten Hag.
Midfield targets are a particular focus with Paul Pogba set to leave the club this summer.
According to the Italian press, the Red Devils are in talks with Sergej Milinkovic-Savic's representatives and seen as frontrunners to sign the Lazio man.
And Ruben Neves' representatives are said to be "inviting" the club to make a bid for the Wolves star.
Kalvin Phillips of Leeds is another reported target, who could make a move across the Pennines for a fee of £50m.
Meanwhile Ralf Rangnick has confirmed he will continue working with Manchester United in a consultancy role this summer.

Manchester United are facing an injury crisis as they prepare to host Chelsea at Old Trafford this evening.
Ralf Rangnick revealed that he would be without EIGHT first team players for the Premier League fixture that United must surely win to keep their dwindling hopes of a top-four finish alive.
Behind-the-scenes, officials have begun working on a number of summer transfer targets – and they include Leeds midfielder Kalvin Phillips.
The England international has previously indicated that he would never join Manchester United, but the Red Devils are hoping to make the player an offer he can't refuse.
And United could splash the cash again when it comes striker Victor Osimhen.
Rumours in Italy state that an £84million offer is being submitted to Napoli for the free-scoring Nigerian.
Meanwhile, Rangnick has rubbished reports that he compiled a dossier for the United board labelling his players 'selfish' and 'unprofessional'.
The interim boss insists that would always protect his players, and his only current concern is helping incoming manager Erik ten Hag to build a squad capable of challenging for titles.
