Ansu Fati included in first-team training at Monaco, Eric Dier and Paul Pogba training individually
The Spaniard was involved in the start of the session before returning early to work in the gym. He was joined on the pitch by Eric Dier, who did not participate in first-team training but instead did individual work. Breel Embolo later joined him for a series of sprints as both follow their own personal training programmes.

Paul Pogba, however, did not take to the pitch. The Frenchman instead worked in the gym individually. However, there is no need for any concern about Pogba's fitness. He was one of the many absentees in the training session attended by Get French Football News. Many first-teamers, including the likes of Mika Biereth, Denis Zakaria, Lamine Camara, Wilfried Singo, and Vanderson, were also absent.
Fati, Dier, and Pogba will all be presented to the media later on Thursday.

Barcelona reach Marcus Rashford salary breakthrough with Manchester United
Barcelona are closing in on a deal to bring Marcus Rashford to the club following fresh talks with Manchester United. Widespread reports across the last 48 hours in the UK and Spain have indicated Barcelona agreed a deal to sign Rashford from United. with the 27-year-old attacker arriving in Catalonia on a season-long loan that includes an option to buy, believed to be in the region of €30-35m. Barcelona have stepped up their pursuit of Rashford in the last week following a mixed summer in the the transfer market. Rashford will offer vital cover on the left wing for Barcelona, after the club had previously chased deals for Nico Williams and Luis Diaz. He is expected to fly into Catalonia imminently and will then complete his medical and sign all appropriate documents over the coming days – If the process moves as smoothly as the club hope, Hansi Flick can include him in his squad for their pre-season tour of Japan and South Korea. One major source of excitement for Barcelona is the speculation over what number Rashford will wear with Mundo Deportivo claiming he has three choices: 14, 19 and 22 – this is because first team registered players are only able to choose from numbers 1-25. The deal reached a vital climax following a fresh round of discussions between the two clubs and a key concession from Barcelona. Despite their ongoing financial issues, Barcelona are willing to bankroll a move for Rashford, and reports from The Times claim they will cover his full wages as part of the loan. The Red Devils had set out their position over demanding a 100% coverage at the start of the summer but Barcelona had previously rejected that. A move closer to United's demands was viewed as the only route to wrapping up an agreement and Rashford has been sealed his dream move.

Chris Gotterup doubled his career earnings with strong play at Scottish, British Opens
PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland – Chris Gotterup had one heck of a two-week trip across the pond. Before he left, the 26-year-old New Jersey native had career earnings of $2,768,333. His earnings from the Scottish and British Opens? $2,703,000. Taxes will take a chunk out of that but still a pretty good haul for two weeks of work. One week after going toe to toe with Rory McIlroy in the final group at the Scottish Open to notch his second PGA Tour victory, Gotterup made his major debut and shot a final-round 4-under 67 at Royal Portrush Golf Club to finish third. 'I expected to play well, but I don't think I expected quite this well," said Gotterup, whose father's parents both hailed from Denmark. "I don't know what's going on over here, but maybe my European blood in me a little bit has come to life,' he said. Gotterup hadn't recorded a single top-10 finish this season on the PGA Tour prior to his two-week hot streak overseas and had missed nine cuts in 23 starts. So, what's been the difference? 'I don't have an answer. I wish I had it. I would have used it a long time ago,' said Gotterup, who vaulted to No. 27 in the Official World Golf Ranking. 'Just something clicked, and I'm going to ride it as long as I can.' Color Harris English, who finished second to Scottie Scheffler and was paired with Gotterup on Sunday, impressed. 'He can flight it, he can smash it,' English said. 'I've played in, I don't know, nine or 10 of these and finished 14th (previous best), and for him to first one finish third is pretty incredible. Got a heck of a game, and I know the best is in front of him. I don't know why it took him to long to play well out here.' All of a sudden, Gotterup has emerged as a potential pick for the U.S. Ryder Cup team. 'It really wasn't ever on my radar. I obviously hoped to play well, and it would be a miracle,' he said. 'I really haven't thought about it one bit. A month ago I really hadn't thought about it at all.' At No. 22 in the U.S. Ryder Cup points rankings, he's still a longshot but if he can remain hot during the FedEx Cup Playoffs, his length would be an asset and there aren't 12 American golfers playing better than he is right now. One thing is for sure: having stared down McIlroy last week and more than held his own in his majors debut, Gotterup has got to be on U.S. Captain Keegan Bradley's radar now if he wasn't already.
