PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN could reportedly renew their interest in Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford.
The Ligue 1 giants are reportedly preparing a selection of replacements for Kylian Mbappe.
Meanwhile, Man Utd will reportedly target Premier League stars Michael Olise and Jarrad Branthwaite in the summer.
On the other hand, SunSport gives the latest news on Lisandro Martinez’s injury.
Manchester United are tipped to show interest in Everton’s Amadou Onana over the summer despite the emergence of Kobbie Mainoo.
Arsenal and Chelsea are also said to have maintained an interest in the Senegal anchorman.
United have marks on the 31-year-old Casemiro, while fellow midfielder Scott McTominay has been linked with Newcastle.
And while academy product 18-year-old Mainoo has risen to the challenge brilliantly, Old Trafford manager Erik ten Hag is expected to target at least one new major signing halfway through.
Bruno Fernandes reportedly rebuffed an “astronomical” offer last month to join Neymar at Al-Hilal.
Record say the Manchester United midfielder “responded negatively” to the huge package put together by the Saudi Pro League club, whose squad includes Ruben Neves and Alexsandar Mitrovic.
But it is also claimed that Al-Hilal are still enthusiastic and in a position to make some other tempting offer to the 29-year-old this summer.
Midfielder Christian Eriksen has been linked with a surprise move to Galatasaray ahead of Turkey’s deadline day on Friday.
Mac claims the Manchester United playmaker has held “secret talks”.
The former Inter Milan and Tottenham star, 31, has a contract at Old Trafford until 2025.
A loan with an option to buy is believed to be the maximum likely end result if Eriksen moves to the Turkish giants.
Foto Mac also suggest that, if the transfer is not possible before Friday, a “promise” of a summer switch could be made.
Former Red Devils poacher Michel Owen has explained why Declan Rice and Virgil van Dijk selected their Prem transfer list based on the transfer fees paid.
The former England hero said: “Declan charges a lot of money, but it’s probably the safest bet you were going to make.
“It’s mentally very, very simple. A talented player. He has a history of playing and no injuries. He’s used to the Premier League.
“He didn’t have to move, either in terms of location or family. Very, very few question marks. There was very little threat with Rice, he was going to give you an 8 or a nine out of 10. “
Owen added: “Van Dijk, of course, also has a couple of question marks about him. ” He has just been one of the most productive signings of all time for Liverpool, even for the Premier League.
“He’s been one of the biggest signings in the Premier League. It exceeded everything we expected. “
Former Manchester United striker Michael Owen ranks Declan Rice and Virgil van Dijk as the Premier League’s “best pound-for-pound signings”.
That’s some tribute – considering England midfielder Rice cost Arsenal £105million from West Ham last summer and Liverpool paid Southampton £75m for Holland defender VVD in 2017.
Former Anfield hero Michael Owen delivered the verdict as the Gunners defeated Van Dijk’s Reds 3-1.
Manchester United are “in position” to sign Juventus defender Gleison Bremer.
This is according to Italian outlet Calciomercato after the Red Devils suffered injuries to their five most sensible centre-backs this season.
The future of Victor Lindelof and Raphael Varane beyond this summer is uncertain.
And it’s suggested the Red Devils have already made positive moves to recruit three-cap Brazilian Bremer, 26, in the next transfer window.
PSG are expected to show interest in Marcus Rashford over the summer.
The England striker has slotted back into Manchester United’s plans after being dropped for one game over his partying in Belfast.
PSG are claimed to be making a primary offer for the 26-year-old, especially if they lose star Kylian Mbappe.
But Rashford may not be cheap, as his contract with United runs until 2028.
Manchester United and City will face Arsenal and Chelsea for Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise.
Etihad chief Pep Guardiola is prepared to pay £60million-plus for the Frenchman, 22, who has yet to win a full cap.
And Old Trafford boss Erik ten Hag sees the under-21 team as one of his team’s major shake-ups planned for this summer.
United’s new minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe will spend in the next move window.
But Olise has reportedly hinted that he might be interested in Arsenal.
The Prem giants may be fighting for Victor Osimhen this summer.
The Napoli striker has been linked with potential offers from Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United.
For now, the 25-year-old’s biggest fear is dispelling doubts about his injury in time for the AFCON semi-final between Nigeria and South Africa tomorrow in Ivory Coast.
But transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio believes the Gunners are already weighing up an approach for Osimhen at the end of the season.
PSG and Real Madrid are also thought to be keen.
And both Chelsea and the Red Devils have reportedly been keeping an eye on his situation for at least a year.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe will turn Old Trafford into the ‘Wembley of the North’.
One of the biggest challenges for Manchester United’s new minority owner is how to renovate its 114-year-old stadium, the largest in British club football.
Old Trafford is deteriorating with a leaky roof, rusty metal and a dilapidated site that is decades older than that of United’s biggest rivals.
Part of the £1. 3 billion investment shown through Ratcliffe on Christmas Eve included around £237 million guaranteed to be injected into the stadium.
One option could see the 74,000-capacity Old Trafford updated, renovated and expanded – at a cost of around £800m.
But the most attractive and significantly more expensive option would be to build an entirely new stadium from scratch.
Ratcliffe doesn’t need to move to United, so the Ineos frontman has reportedly come to know land around Old Trafford as a site for new construction.
That would see the stadium placed between the railway lines that run past the current ground and the Bridgewater Canal.
And Ratcliffe hopes to build a stadium that can rival the 90,000-seat Wembley National Football Stadium.
Atletico Madrid could overtake Barcelona to sign Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood on a permanent basis this summer.
The in-form Getafe loanee has attracted many fans since arriving in La Liga in September.
And the 22-year-old Greenwood will almost certainly be signed permanently by United at the end of the season.
Barcelona had hoped to strike a deal, but it is believed their reduced purchasing power could give Atletico the upper hand in any battle of moves.
The Telegraph reports that Greenwood is now on the list of targets proposed for the summer by Diego Simeone’s men after missing out on Juventus’ Italian hitman Moise Kean in January.
Michail Antonio says he knew Rasmus Hojlund would be good.
The West Ham striker saw Manchester United’s £72m summer signing score the first-half goal in a 3-0 home win over his club on Sunday.
Danish striker Hojlund, 21, now has 10 for United after scoring in his fourth straight Prem game following a drought at the start of the season.
Antonio told Sky Sports: “To be fair, I liked what I saw at the beginning the season.
“Obviously, you’re comparing forwards based on their goals. But it’s not just about scoring goals.
“It’s also about what you bring to the team, and he brings his physicality, he’s involved other people, he’s a willing rider and now he’s scoring goals in an obvious way.
“The goal he scored (on Sunday) was quality. The false shot was dragged with his weak right foot, towards the back corner, a great shot through the ball. I appreciate it.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Dave Brailsford were the attendees at the Munich Air Disaster Memorial Service this afternoon.
Manchester United’s new managers have paid tribute to the passengers who lost their lives in the 1958 crash at Munich-Riem airport.
Ratcliffe, who acquired a 25 cent stake in his boyhood club last December, joined club legend Sir Alex Ferguson under the plaque commemorating those who lost their lives in the crisis at 2. 40pm.
Current coach Erik ten Hag and captain Bruno Fernandes paid tribute.
They were joined by their counterparts from Manchester United’s women’s team, Marc Skinner and Katie Zelem.
Club heroes Brian Kidd and Paddy Crerand – who won the European Cup under Sir Matt Busby ten years after the disaster – also attended.
The moving service was handled by former United chaplain, the Rev. John Boyers.
It included several readings, poems and songs before a minute’s silence at 3:04 p. m. , the precise time of the fateful accident. The classic performing a song from “The Flowers of Manchester” ended the silence.
Twenty-three passengers lost their lives when British European Airways Flight 609 crashed on the runway on its third failed takeoff attempt.
Kobbie Mainoo has been hailed for having the youthful maturity not seen at Manchester United since Class of 92 stars like Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs.
United legend Dimitar Berbatov advises the midfielder for a call-up to England, especially if he is not under too much pressure.
The former Tottenham striker told the Betfair ambassador: “The goal he scored against Wolves was wonderful because it shows he is mature for his age.
“He had the courage to try something different in the last minute of the game and it was a special moment.
“Mainoo is a special player, but like all 18-year-olds, we have to let him play because at the moment Kobbie just enjoys football in its purest form and that’s what I like to see. “Paul Scholes, Giggsy, Gary Neville and when that generation of players came in to see players so young look so mature.
“Now with Kobbie, you can see he plays the game with such confidence. He’s composed and he knows how to play the game.
Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag has said Marcus Rashford will be “unstoppable” again if he concentrates properly.
The England striker scored in Prem’s 4-3 win over Wolves last Thursday, his retirement after being sacked for partying at a Belfast nightclub.
Rashford then failed to score in Sunday’s 3-0 win at home or at West Ham.
And Ten Hag said of the shape of the academy product: “It depends on him, how he works. “
When he’s focused, he’s unstoppable because he’s got that speed, that technical quality, to galvanise the players, to run at the back and he’s a very intelligent finisher.
Manchester United are Copenhagen prodigy Roony Bardghji.
United sent a scout to Portugal to investigate 18-year-old Bardghji at the Atlantic Ocean Cup.
The winger has been on the Red Devils’ radar since his shock goal in the Danish champions’ 4-3 organisational win over Erik ten Hag’s side in November.
United will keep an eye on the Swedish full-back on Friday in his club’s next warm-up match against Molde and will deploy scouts for Manchester City’s two Champions League draws.
Ten Hag is looking for a right winger after abandoning Jadon Sancho, who was loaned out to Borussia Dortmund and put up for sale for more than £40 million.
Former Manchester United chief executive David Gill has revealed three tweaks Omar Berrada wants to make to get the club back on top.
Firstly, I think hiring someone from the outside is a smart idea, someone with new concepts and a new attitude coming from a very successful club.
[My advices would be to] Really focus in with Dave Brailsford and those on the recruitment and negotiation side, really understand that.
Focus on that again, make it work to entertain the players.
We just negotiated an extension with adidas, a smart deal there, and we have sponsors coming in all the time, so it’s working out pretty well.
But if you align that with a team’s performance, you’ll do even better.
Manchester United’s new boss, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, is keen to put pressure on the British government to turn his club’s stadium into the “Wembley of the North”.
Old Trafford is in a deplorable state due to a lack of investment in its maintenance, adding a leaky roof, rusted steel around the stadium and has recently seen raw poultry being served to guests.
The £1. 03 billion purchase of Ratcliffe will see him take over 28. 9 per cent of the club and comes with a £237 million initial investment guarantee for Old Trafford.
But SunSport understands that Ratcliffe has ambitious plans for the Theatre of Dreams, as he pushes for the “Levelling Up” government to promise to give the north of England a venue that can rival the 90,000-capacity Wembley Stadium.
The Ineos leader is said to be widely opposed to the club’s move and believes enthusiasts would welcome plans to build a new world-class stadium on the grounds surrounding Old Trafford.
Another plan under consideration is to redevelop the South Stand of the 74,000-capacity ground, and current estimates show the expansion could cost at least £800m, while building a completely new ground would cost up to £2bn.
Manchester United are leading the race to sign Juventus star Gleison Bremer for the season.
Bremer, 26, is an “ideal” target for United boss Erik ten Hag, according to Calciomercato.
The Red Devils are expected to face Juve and the Manchester giants are “first and foremost” clubs in the race to sign the centre-back who is “among the best in the world”.
It is unclear when a position will be taken between the clubs, but Italian media continue to paint United as favourites.
But the Bianconeri will only listen to offers “no less than £59million” excluding bonuses as they try to hold onto the Brazil international.
Manchester United legend Roy Keane criticised Liverpool for protecting “like a pub team” in their defeat to Arsenal.
In terms of intensity from Liverpool’s first whistle to the last, with and without possession, I can’t imagine how bad they were.
Again thanks to Arsenal, they arrived and were there.
But Liverpool in defence, gave away the goals, like a pub in defence.
Rasmus Hojlund has left Wayne Rooney out of his all-time five-man squad at Manchester United.
I have to put Peter [Schmeichel] in goal. Peter is Danish.
Peter has won it all here. Peter is a legend here in Denmark as well because he won the Euros for us.
I have to put Rio [Ferdinand] in there because it’s very memorable for me. I’d love to put [Nemanja] Vidic in there, but I can only have one defender.
I want to put Ryan Giggs in there, Paul Scholes and then Cristiano Ronaldo up front.
Manchester United are sixth in the Premier League table with eight points separating them from the top four.
However, they would be the most sensible in the table if they only counted goals scored after the 90th minute.
As you’ll see below, the picture would be very different under those circumstances.
Control:
Arsenal legend Alan Smith showed he is the consummate professional ahead of Manchester United’s Premier League clash with West Ham on Sunday when he was soaked by on-pitch sprinklers.
Smith on the side of the pitch at Old Trafford while watching a preview of the game for Sky Sports and absolutely soaking wet on an already chilly afternoon in Manchester.
Surprisingly, the expert didn’t even flinch and went on to analyse the Hammers’ midfield as if nothing had happened.
It was only his colleague Ben Ransom who later referred to the incident, saying, “I’m going to prevent here, because it’s surely unbelievable. “
“I’ve never noticed a more well-rounded professional than Alan Smith. Here, it’s the start of 2 p. m. , so we stopped by to stop by, grab a towel and dry off.
Manchester United Christian Eriksen is in “secret talks” over his departure this week.
According to Foto Mac, Eriksen could sign for Galatasaray before the Turkish market closes on Friday.
The playmaker, who has a contract with United until 2025, is negotiating with Galata “in the utmost secrecy”.
It is understood that a loan with an option to buy is the outline of the agreement between the two clubs.
And if that deal can be sealed, Denmark’s foreigner could even make his home debut against Istanbul Basaksehir on Saturday.
However, if an agreement is not reached by Friday, a “promise” will be made that it will be at the end of the season.
Former Manchester United chief executive David Gill praised Edwin van der Sar for his accolades.
Gill is very pleased to have signed Van der Sar then, as he nevertheless restored acceptance between the sticks, something that had been absent since the departure of Peter Schmeichel.
But I think in terms of the importance to the club, one of the most important ones was Edwin.
We struggled to upgrade Peter and then opted for Edwin and he was wonderful for us.
