In his first external school as a senior player, Alejandro expressed his joy at getting out into the local community: “I really enjoyed meeting everyone on my...

Axel Tuanzebe will say farewell to Manchester United this summer, upon the expiry of his current contract. The defender has been a Red since he joined the Academy at the age of eight, and has captained the club at every level, eventually finishing up with 37 senior appearances between 2017 and 2021.   Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, before moving to Rochdale as a young boy, he quickly established himself as a powerful, skilful and an authoritative leader at Carrington, winning the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award in 2014/15 and then scooping the Denzil Haroun Reserve-Team Player of the Year prize in 2016/17.   That latter season also brought his competitive debut for the first team, when he came on as a substitute during a 4-0 win over Wigan Athletic in the fourth round of the FA Cup. His career ignited during the second of two loan spells with then-Championship club Aston Villa, as he helped the Midlanders to promotion during the 2018/19 campaign. He was ...

The two teams experienced contrasting results last time out, with the Red Devils securing a two-goal win over Wolverhampton Wanderers and the Cherries losing by the same margin against Crystal Palace. Twelve months on from securing promotion back to the Premier League, Bournemouth have proven many people wrong by cementing their status in the top flight this season, despite suffering back-to-back defeats in their last two matches against Chelsea and Crystal Palace. A 3-1 home defeat against the Blues was followed by a 2-0 loss at Selhurst Park last weekend, with an Eberechi Eze brace helping the Eagles to come out on top against a Cherries side who failed to register a single shot on target. Gary O'Neil deserves plenty of credit for keeping Bournemouth up this season, with his side currently sitting 14th in the table and eight points clear of the drop zone, but the Cherries boss – who turned 40 on Thursday – will be keen to end the campaign on a high and claim positive results fro...

  F ormer Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that the club could have signed Erling Haaland for just £4 million in the summer of 2018. Solskjaer was Haaland's manager at Norwegian club Molde at the time and contacted United to propose a transfer.  But United did not feel that £4m represented value for money for a teenage Haaland. United went on to hire Solskjaer as first-team manager in December 2018 but Haaland did not follow him. Solskjaer told  The Sun  this week "I called United about six months before I took over and told them that I'd got this striker that we had but they didn't listen.

  Manchester United are keen on having Mateo Kovacic in their ranks. The 29-year-old’s future at Chelsea is uncertain and a few Premier League clubs are closely monitoring the situation. Kovacic joined the Blues back in the summer of 2018 from Real Madrid. It was a one-year loan deal that was made permanent in the following summer window. The Croatian international has been a great servant of the club for quite a few years now.

  Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani wants Kingsley Coman, Eduardo Camavinga and Kylian Mbappe if he takes over Manchester United, reports SportBild journalist Christian Falk. The Qatar Islamic Bank chairman tabled an offer to buy the Red Devils for more than £5 billion last week. He wants to buy 100% of Man United and has pledged substantial additional funding. However, Sheikh Jassim is facing stiff competition from Sir Jim Ratcliffe in the takeover race. He still believes he has a chance of getting a deal over the line and is already preparing for the future. Man United need a major squad shake-up to become a European and Premier League powerhouse again. Manager Erik ten Hag wants a new striker in the summer, and Paris Saint-Germain star Mbappe fits the bill. The current board do not have the cash to fund such a move, but it will not be a problem for the Qataris.
