So former Manchester United youth team forward Deji Sotona has returned English football with Burnley after spells in France and Scotland did not work out.

But left-back Luke Shaw was playing centre-half a few weeks ago so do the Red Devils really have enough cover there as things stand?
With the typical focus on a top-four Prem finish along with a very decent shot at three cups, perhaps not.
