[ad_1] Wout Weghorst made his Manchester United debut as a starter in the club’s 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Wednesday night and gave a strong opening account of himself.

[ad_1] Barcelona’s financial situation is still shambolic and it’s unlikely the club will be able to support Xavi’s exciting project with an array of lucrative signings this summer. Players will have to depart in a bid to balance the books and loosen the purse strings somewhat, and we should see the free agent market targeted once again by La Blaugrana.
