West Ham vow to do anything to sign Jesse Lingard as Man Utd set asking price

West Ham vow to do anything to sign Jesse Lingard as Man Utd set asking price

Premier League
West Ham United have reportedly vowed to do 'whatever it takes' to sign Jesse Lingard after Manchester United put a £30m asking price on the England international. Lingard has scored six goals in eight matches since moving to east London on loan for the remainder of the campaign in the January transfer window. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The 28-year-old has barely kicked a ball for the Red devils in the past 12 months and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wanted Lingard to get some game time ahead of the European Championships. But while United have never lost faith in the ability of Lingard, even though they have been surprised at the level of the player’s displays since moving to the London side. Those performances have earned Lingard a recall to the Englan...

Bruno Fernandes disagrees with Solskjaer’s claims over Man Utd motivation

Premier League
Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes clearly disagrees with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer over the team's attitude towards winning trophies. The Red devils are still fighting to win one trophy this campaign, as it now seems their Premier League title challenge is all-but over. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); United are currently 14 points behind table-toppers Manchester City, and it seems very unlikely they'll be able to make that up in the last eight matches of the season. Their best chance of silverware is the Europa League after their exit from the FA Cup. Speaking after the defeat to Leicester in the FA Cup quarter-finals, Solskjear played down the importance of winning titles. He said: "In the league position you see if there’s any progress for m...

Man Utd add Anthony Elanga to Europa League squad ahead of Granada clash

Premier League
Manchester United have added highly-rated youngster Anthony Elanga to their Europa League squad ahead of the quarter-final match against Granada on Thursday. Elanga, who signed a new long-term deal at the club last month, trained with the Red devils' first-team on Tuesday. He will now fly to Spain with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad on Wednesday ahead of Thursday’s first-leg tie. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The 18-year-old recently regained his fitness after suffering a collarbone injury in the Under-23’s Premier League 2 game against Leicester City in January. While Elanga is yet to play any game for Manchester United’s first-team, he came on as a substitute during their pre-season friendly match against Aston Villa last summer. His progress saw...
Rio Ferdinand slams van Gaal for selling three valuable Man Utd players

Rio Ferdinand slams van Gaal for selling three valuable Man Utd players

Premier League
Rio Ferdinand has criticised the decision of Louis van Gaal to sell Danny Welbeck, Javier Hernandez and Rafael da Silva during his time as manager. Manchester United sold Welbeck to Arsenal in the summer of 2014, while Hernandez and Rafael both left the club the following year. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ferdinand was disappointed by Van Gaal’s decision to sell Welbeck as he says the player ‘epitomised everything about Manchester United’. ‘I thought we got rid of good people in Hernandez, Welbeck and Rafael,’ Ferdinand told the FIVE YouTube channel. ‘They were good United people with character. ‘They wanted to play for Manchester United and knew what it meant. They wanted to win and they were part of that previous era that knew how to win. ‘The...
Bruno Fernandes sends message to Man Utd team-mate over ‘difficult’ campaign

Bruno Fernandes sends message to Man Utd team-mate over ‘difficult’ campaign

Premier League
Bruno Fernandes believes it’s ‘normal’ for Mason Greenwood to be struggling in front of goal this campaign but says it’s more important to focus on his contribution to the team. Greenwood scored the winner in Manchester United’s 2-1 victory over Brighton, with Marcus Rashford and former United star Danny Welbeck the other players on the scoresheet. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Greenwood scored 10 goals last season but has found it harder to come by this campaign. Fernandes is convinced the player – who is considered one of the best finishers at United – will start finding the net more as time passes but believes he should be focusing on all aspects of his game, rather than just on how many goals he scores. ‘What everyone has to know is Mason is a yo...

Derby boss Wayne Rooney confirms Man Utd agreement over Teden Mengi

Premier League
Derby County boss Wayne Rooney has confirmed there is an agreement in place with Manchester United for Teden Mengi to extend his stay at the club. The 18-year-old joined the club in January and has played seven matches – including five starts – though was an unused substitute in the recent 2-0 victory over Luton Town. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); But Rooney says he has been impressed with the player and Derby have explored keeping him next campaign, though the decision now lies with Mengi. ‘Teden will play more games for us, he is a player I am hoping to keep here for next season,’ Rooney told reporters after Friday’s win. ‘He has gone from playing Under-23 football to playing competitive football where there is a lot at stake. ‘He is getting a g...
Man Utd set price for De Gea as Solskjaer puts faith in Henderson

Man Utd set price for De Gea as Solskjaer puts faith in Henderson

Premier League
Manchester United have reportedly decided to sell David De Gea this summer transfer window and hope to raise as much as £50 million by selling the Spanish keeper. The former Atletico Madrid goalie has lost his place in the side in recent weeks after attending the birth of his child in Spain, which handed Dean Henderson the opportunity to stake his claim to become a regular in the Premier League. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Henderson has been impressive during his stint between the sticks, keeping four clean sheets in six matches during De Gea’s absence. And he has kept his spot since De Gea’s return and there’s now a sense at Old Trafford that it is time for Henderson to takeover as the club's no.1. De Gea is currently United’s top earner on £350...

Man Utd respond to Raiola’s offer to discuss Erling Haaland transfer

Transfer Info, Bundesliga, Premier League
Manchester United have turned down a meeting with Erling Haaland’s agent Mino Raiola to discuss a deal for the Dortmund striker but they remain interested in his signature. The youngster looks set to leave the Bundesliga this summer, particularly if Dortmund fail to qualify for the Champions League, and is being chased by a number of Europe’s top sides. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Raiola and Haaland’s father, former player Alf-Inge, were seen at Barcelona’s El Prat airport on Thursday to meet with the Spanish club to discuss a transfer. A few hours later they flew to Madrid to discuss a possible transfer with Zidane’s side and the pair are due to fly to England to speak with clubs like Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool. United were also expect...
Fiorentina ‘concede’ Nikola Milenkovic transfer to Man Utd is ‘inevitable’

Fiorentina ‘concede’ Nikola Milenkovic transfer to Man Utd is ‘inevitable’

Premier League
Fiorentina are believed to be resigned to losing central defender Nikola Milenkovic this summer transfer window, with Manchester United set to swoop for the player. Milenkovic is a man in huge demand after his impressive displays in Serie A over the past few campaigns, and he has been linked with a number of elite clubs over the last few months. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The Red devils' interest is believed to be the strongest, however, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer known to be desperate to sign another high quality defender to his team. With Milenkovic's current contract set to expire next year, this summer will be Fiorentina's only chance to recoup a relatively huge transfer fee for the centre-back. And according to Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sp...
Dean Henderson names best finisher at Man Utd

Dean Henderson names best finisher at Man Utd

Premier League
Manchester United keeper Dean Henderson has named Harry Kane as the ‘best finisher’ he’s ever seen – but says Mason Greenwood is already almost as good as the Tottenham striker. Kane is considered one of the best strikers in football – having scored 215 goals in 327 appearances for Spurs and 34 goals in 53 matches for England – and continues to be linked with a move to United. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Henderson has been in a number of England squads since 2019 and admits the finishing of England skipper Kane is on another level. But he says Greenwood is the best finisher at United and is ‘up there’ with Kane. The England star has endured an underwhelming campaign at Old Trafford but was superb during the 2019-20 season, scoring 17 goals in all co...
