Manchester United

David De Geas future remains up in the air, but reports claim United chiefs are set to make a last-ditch contract offer to him.The Spaniard, whose deal runs out next summer, is believed to want the same 500,000-a-week wages as Alexis Sanchez.United appear desperate to keep their No.1 and could give in to his demands to ensure he commits his long-term future to the club.De Gea could have two new defenders in front of him. Crystal Palace starlet Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been linked with a big-money move to United.Getty8

Aaron Wan-Bissaka could be Manchester United’s new long-term right-back

Palace have reportedly rejected a 40million bid from the Red Devils and value the right-back at 65million.Further reports have claimed United will break their transfer record twice to sign Wan-Bissaka and England star Harry Maguire.The Leicester centre-back was close to moving to Old Trafford last summer, and he is back on the clubs radar.A defensive partnership with Victor Lindelof would significantly strengthen Uniteds backline, which would have Luke Shaw at left-back.Nemanja Matic and Scott McTominay could be the workhorses in midfield to give Bruno Fernandes, Sporting Lisbons attacking midfielder, who could replace Real Madrid target Paul Pogba, a free role.Getty8

Bruno Fernandes helped Portugal win the Nations League last weekend

Jesse Lingard, who is reportedly set to be offered a new contract by Solskjaer, could operate on the right with new signing Daniel James on the opposite wing and Marcus Rashford through the middle.With Romelu Lukaku heavily linked with a move to Inter Milan, if he departs, it will be a big season for Rashford.8

Is this the Manchester United team that will take on Chelsea?

Chelsea

With Chelseas transfer ban, their defence could look very similar to last season. Kepa is certain to keep his place in goal after an encouraging debut season in England.Cesar Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Antonio Rudiger and Marcos Alonso could make up the back four. Right-back Reece James, who is set to get a run in the first-team next season, is sidelined with ligament damage in his ankle.Getty8

Reece James enjoyed a hugely successful loan spell at Wigan last season

Fikayo Tomori, who played almost every minute of Derbys Championship campaign last term, could rival Luiz and Rudiger for a regular starting spot.Rudiger missed the last month of the 2018/19 season with a knee injury, but is expected to be fit for the United clash.Following Jorginhos shaky debut season at Stamford Bridge, and without Sarri at the helm, a new manager could opt to play NGolo Kante in his preferred holding midfield role.Getty8

N’Golo Kante could return to his previous role for Chelsa

Blues academy graduate Mason Mount and Ross Barkley could play slightly further ahead of Kante in a new-look midfield.New boy Christian Pulisic will have to fill the void left by Eden Hazard, who joined Real Madrid in an initial 88million deal, which could rise to 150million.Getty8

Tammy Abraham scored 26 goals on loan at Aston Villa as they won promotion to the Premier League last season

England youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi is still nursing a ruptured achilles, which could see Willian start on the left wing to accommodate Pulisic.Tammy Abraham could finally get a chance to lead the line for Chelsea after loan spells with Bristol City, Swansea and Aston Villa.8
