How do Man United get rid of the 'bomb squad'?
Manchester United's pre-season games kick off this weekend but the unwanted five - Rashford, Sancho, Garnacho, Antony and Malacia - are in limbo. The club told them not to show up to pre-season but can't sell them. Former Premier League footballer, Nedum Onuoha, who's been in this position before, puts us in the players' shoes. The Athletic's Manchester United Correspondent, Laurie Whitwell, brings us the latest, and Daniel Geey, Partner at Sheridans, explains the legal side. (10:30)
Plus, Gabby and Mark react to Scottie Scheffler saying "What is the point?" at The Open, Olivia Smith becoming the first £1m female player and the big squad announcement for the first British & Irish Lions Test. (01:00)
