The news broke in English this morning that Manchester United have blocked a move to sell Anthony Martial. The French striker is believed to have positive talks with manager Jimmy Ten Hag, who has blocked the sale and believes that Martial is still a good player. If Martial is going to move, he could join Jesse Lingard or Ruben Neves. In addition to Jesse Lingard, Sekou Mara is also keen to move to Old Trafford. In fact, Rafael Benitez has stated that he wants Martial to stay.
Erik ten Hag has blocked the sale of Anthony Martial
Man United have been unable to sell Anthony Martial this summer after several attempts from rival clubs. However, Erik ten Hag has blocked a move for the France international, saying the club must retain their key player. This is a sign that the Dutchman sees Martial as an important member of their squad, and believes that he can improve in the coming months. It is unclear whether the club will accept offers for the French international in the summer, or if it will sell Martial to a third-party.
Manchester United had initially planned to sell Anthony Martial this summer after the France international spent the second half of last season on loan at Sevilla. However, Martial has since impressed Erik ten Hag, and has scored three goals in three games on tour. The Frenchman’s goals have boosted the club’s chances of a title run, despite Ronaldo’s absence. However, Martial will now have to play at the top level and will be replaced by the likes of Paul Pogba.
Ten Hag is also a former Ajax manager who coached Donny van de Beek at Ajax. The Dutchman coached Donny van de Beek last season, and he was sent on loan to Everton. Donny van de Beek struggled in the Premier League last season, but he thrived under Ten Hag at Ajax. Last season, Donny van de Beek was sent on loan to Everton. Ten Hag hopes that his association with the Dutch coach will give him a competitive advantage.
Ruben Neves and Donny van de Beek could join Jesse Lingard
Wolves midfielder Donny van de Beek has been linked with a move to Old Trafford, while Portuguese playmaker Ruben Neves has reportedly turned down a move to Manchester United. Despite missing three Premier League games with a knee injury, the Portuguese international has chipped in with four goals and two assists in 28 games this season.
The Portuguese international Ruben Neves has been linked with a move to Manchester United this summer. He impressed against Manchester United in a recent match, and is expected to cost the Red Devils PS40 million. The club have had previous interest in Neves, but United’s lack of desire means they are unlikely to pursue him. Besides Jesse Lingard, Ruben Neves has also been linked with Barcelona and Arsenal.
Ralf Rangnick is expected to bring in reinforcements in the midfield during the January transfer window, but he may need to let a few players go to free agents in order to free up funds. If they don’t, Jesse Lingard and Donny van de Beek could be surplus to requirements. This is particularly likely given the recent rift between the club and the young midfielder.
A new contract for Jesse Lingard may make it impossible for the England international to stay at the club. A move to Newcastle could give him the chance to get more game time and help improve his confidence. However, he may be a bit too expensive for Manchester United to pay that much money for a player. So, it would be better for United to give him a permanent move.
Sekou Mara wants to move to Old Trafford
According to the latest reports, Sekou Mara has agreed to join Southampton FC from Bordeaux. The 19-year-old centre-forward is impressing in the Maurice Revello tournament for France’s under-20s. Sekou Mara has been scouted by both Manchester United and Manchester City and has impressed in the past. But a move to Old Trafford is a long shot as it will require a medical, work permit and international clearance.
The French striker’s desire to join Old Trafford was spurred by rumours that the Saints were keen on signing him. The Southampton fans wanted a striker with some physicality, while the manager, Ralph Hasenhuttl, wanted a striker with a bit of experience. This has made Sekou Mara a target for several Premier League clubs, including Manchester United and Southampton.
The teenager was a complete striker at Bordeaux last season, scoring six goals in 26 league appearances. Despite this, the French side was relegated to Ligue 2 due to financial issues. Southampton have been negotiating a deal with the teenager to alleviate their financial problems. Newcastle and Everton are desperate for attacking players after selling Richarlison to Tottenham Hotspur.
Rafael Benitez says he wants to stay at Manchester United
Rafa Benitez has been linked with the managerial position at Manchester United. Newcastle fans are huge supporters of the Spaniard. However, his position at the club is in doubt as the ownership of the club, Mike Ashley, has been at odds with Benitez throughout the season. This means that Rafa can do little more than ignore the offers of other clubs to stay at Newcastle. It is a sad state of affairs for Newcastle fans and the club itself, with Rafa Benitez facing relegation, and the potential for a massive fall from grace.
After spending six seasons as manager of Liverpool, Rafa Benitez has reaffirmed his desire to stay at Manchester United. While many Liverpool fans believed that Rafa Benitez would leave the club, he later re-affirmed his desire to stay. During that period, he led Liverpool to yet another Champions League Final, but the 2-0 defeat by AC Milan. However, the manager’s plans were thrown into turmoil after boot room trouble at Melwood. In the end, Benitez wanted to take control of the youth and reserve team.
Despite the relegation, Rafa has made an excellent start to the season, and he’s keen to convince the doubters. A win against Solskjaer’s men would be great for Everton and Rafa himself would relish a rare Old Trafford triumph. While Manchester United might be in the doghouse, Rafa will look for a way back into football.
Xavi says he wants to stay at United
After a year with Barcelona, Xavi is ready to leave for a fresh challenge. The Spanish winger has spoken of his desire to stay at Manchester United. Xavi has been in the dugout for the last six months and has led the club to the top of the La Liga standings. When he arrived in the dugout, Barcelona were ninth in the league. They are currently second.
While Xavi’s statement may seem like a sign of the times, it seems to be a clear indication of the type of player the club is attempting to sign. Xavi has denied any disrespect towards the Ajax midfielder, who has been linked with a move to Old Trafford. Meanwhile, Manchester United are chasing Frenkie de Jong, who is a key player for Barca. He has worked with Erik ten Hag at Ajax, and it could be a perfect fit.
The relationship between Xavi and De Jong has also been a topic of interest, as the former worked together at Ajax. Both men are believed to want to reunite with each other, and the move could be a good way to kick-start Erik ten Hag’s United reign. It’s also believed that De Jong wants to remain at Barcelona and that he’s keen to stay.
Xavi says he is ‘open-minded’ about Anthony Martial’s future
Xavi is open-minded about Anthony Martial’s future at Manchester, despite his ‘failure’ to impress in the last two years. The Spanish star has been loaned out to Sevilla last season, scoring only once in all competitions. The Frenchman then returned to Manchester for pre-season, but has not performed well there. Xavi’s open-minded approach on Anthony Martial’s future at United could be the key to his revival.
‘We’re open-minded about Anthony Martial’s future at Manchester. If Barcelona had called, some players would have been desperate to leave. But we’ll see. Until we have more information about the new manager, we can’t rule out the possibility of signing another player. ‘I don’t have the answers to that yet,’ Xavi says.
‘Open-minded’ Xavi believes Jadon Sancho is one of the best wingers in the world. The 18-year-old joined Manchester in a PS73 million transfer last summer and has improved his game since. But it may depend on whether or not Frenkie de Jong leaves Manchester United to improve the team’s finances.
‘Open-minded’ is a positive sign for Martial’s future at Manchester United. Martial’s performance for Sevilla was impressive. The manager’s ‘open-minded’ attitude may be a sign of things to come. Manchester United are hoping for a rebuild this summer. The club are expected to appoint Ralf Rangnick as a consultant.
