The Independent say United's pursuit of Ivan Perisic could still end in a positive outcome.
Inter bosses have been insisting the Croatian is going nowhere for some time.
Perisic is Jose Mouriho's top remaining target this summer as he looks to add someone to provide the bullets for Romelu Lukaku.
Milan boss Luciano Spalett has insisted the potential deal is dead and 'is now finished'.
Sports director Piero Ausilio confirmed the club were intending to offer Perisic a new contract.
But The Independent say United are likely to do a deal despite Inter's public protests.
They say United and Inter are set to agree a fee in the region of £48m before the window closes.
Starsport understand that United are preparing a £90m bid for Real Madrid star Gareth Bale.
Reports in Spain claim the La Liga giants are open to flogging the Welshman to help finance their £140m move for Kylian Mbappe.
Mourinho is a big fan of Bale and would love to bring him back to England.
United have a long-standing interest in Bale but Mourinho said recently he didn’t want to waste time and energy chasing a player who seemed happy at the Bernabeu.
But if Real make it clear they want Bale out or that out his first team chances will be severely limited by Mbappe’s arrival, that could change everything.
Mourinho said this week he was happy that the club had signed three of his four targets this summer - but would be ecstatic to sign a player of Bale’s quality.
Barcelona and Bayern Munich are interested in signing Manchester United defender Matteo Darmian.
United are ready to sell Darmian, with manager Jose Mourinho supposedly keen to sign PSG’s Serge Aurier.
Darmian played a bit-part role in United’s campaign last season and the Italy international is second choice behind Antonio Valencia at right-back.
Italian outlet Calciomercato claim both Barca and Bayern are seeking full-backs and Darmian has been earmarked as a viable target.
Barca have not fully replaced Dani Alves, who left the club last summer, and are flush with cash after selling Neymar to PSG in a £200m on Wednesday.
