  • Never say Neves

    Wolves are still working on a long-term deal for contract rebel and Manchester United target Ruben Neves, writes SunSport’s Jordan Davies.

    Neves’ deal at Molineux runs out next summer – potentially ending a seven-year stay in the Midlands after joining from Porto back in 2017.

    SunSport understands Wolves are preparing a last-gasp attempt to stop the 26-year-old departing for a cut-price fee.

    With European interest in the midfielder cooling as of late, the player may be resigned to finally signing.

    But the Portugal international’s wage demands exceeding £100,000-a-week will be the main sticking point.

    Neves is also prepared to wait until the club can guarantee top flight safety – with Wolves currently four points off the drop with eight matches remaining.

  • Felix bid latest

    Manchester United target Joao Felix is believed to be “comfortable” at Chelsea, where he plays on loan

    According to AS, Felix has been linked with a move to Old Trafford after impressing at Stamford Bridge.

    However, the Red Devils appear to be facing an uphill battle to sign striker.

    The Manchester giants would struggle especially if the Portugal international prefers a permanent move to the Blues from Atletico Madrid.

  • Harry Kane reminder

    Manchester United could miss out on signing Tottenham superstar Harry Kane.

    That is because United are believed to be facing competition from European powerhouse Real Madrid.

    Paris Saint-Germain are also keeping tabs on Kane ahead of the summer transfer window.

    The two clubs could make a move for the star striker once his contract expires at Spurs, according to the Daily Mail.

  • All change at United

    Man United are planning a major summer clear-out which could reportedly see as many as THIRTEEN stars shipped out.

    Boss Erik ten Hag wants to get his squad into better shape for another campaign challenging on multiple fronts next season.

    But the set of players he wants to move on has some more than decent quality in it.

  • Felix ‘comfortbale’ at Chelsea

    Reported Man United target Joao Felix is believed to be ‘comfortable at Chelsea.

    According to AS, the Portugeuse attacker has been linked with a move to Old Trafford after impressing at Stamford Bridge.

  • Hammers linked with Wan-Bissaka

    West Ham are reportedly interested in signing Man United right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka after missing out on him in the January window.

    According to a report from Football Insider, the Hammers are hoping to upgrade their right-back spot in the summer and the former Crystal Palace man is a target.

    However, they would have to beat the Eagles to the defender as they are also monitoring his situation at Old Trafford.

  • Rasford ‘happy’ at United

    Marcus Rashford is reportedly “not happy” with reports suggesting he wants a crazy salary and believes the club is on the edge of success.

    Fabrizio Romano tweeted: “Marcus Rashford was not happy with recent reports of “crazy” salary requests.

    “He’s understood to be really happy with how things are developing at Man Utd and feels success is around the corner.

    “New deal talks will continue soon – Rashford loves working under ten Hag.”

  • Eriksen on ‘special’ Old Trafford

    Christian Eriksen has admitted that the atmosphere at Old Trafford can help Man United

    He told club media: “The vibe in the stadium as an away player was intense but not really scary.

    “And then coming here and playing every game, I do get why some people – especially now and how it’s going – are scared to play because of the crowd. [They are] good people, good fans. It’s a wonderful stadium and big enough I think.

    “[It was] weird [walking out of the tunnel as a United player for the first time]. The same as when you walk into the stadium, walking to the right instead of the left [to get to the] changing rooms and stuff.

    “So that was a bit of a different feeling compared to being here the last few times but no, it was special.”

  • FER REAL

    Rio Ferdinand has responded to Jamie Carragher’s claim that Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk is “far better” than Nemanja Vidic ever was for Manchester United.

    Carragher, 45, was critical of Liverpool’s back line in the first half against Arsenal at the weekend as the Reds fell 2-0 behind before coming back to clinch a thrilling 2-2 draw.

    Ferdinand has now hit back at Carragher’s comments by defending his former centre-back partner Vidic.

    Speaking on the Vibe with Five YouTube channel, he said: “I see Jamie Carragher tweeted something about Van Dijk being better than Vidic. 

    “I think Torres scored three goals in 15 games against Vidic. It’s a bit of a myth, he had a couple of dodgy moments in those games and got sent off a couple of times and that’s been amplified into saying he got tortured every time he played against Torres which wasn’t the case.

    “[Marcus] Rashford’s got six goals in 13 games against Liverpool, does that mean he’s tortured Van Dijk?”

  • INCE SACKED

    Man Unit star Paul Ince has been sacked as Reading manager.

    A club statement read: “Reading Football Club can confirm that the contract of first team manager Paul Ince has been terminated with immediate effect.”

    “Ince took the reins on a permanent basis in the summer and, having to cope with strict transfer embargo restrictions, he helped to piece together a new squad on a much-reduced wage budget – and with five wins from our first seven home games the season began brightly.

    “However, without a win in our last eight matches and with a relegation battle to fight following a six-point deduction imposed last week, owner Mr Dai Yongge has decided that a change is needed.”

  • Kane blow

    Man United could reportedly miss out on signing Tottenham star Harry Kane.

    The Red Devils are believed to be facing competition from European powerhouses Real Madrid and PSG.

    The two clubs could make a move for the England International once his contract expires at Spurs, according to the Daily Mail.

  • Praise for Maguire

    Erik ten Hag has heaped praise on Harry Maguire after the victory over Everton.

    He said: “Maguire was dominating, dictating.

    “This is a different Harry to what I’ve seen in the first weeks and months.

    “He’s taking so much initiative, dominating his opponent, stepping in, bringing passes.

    “So a really great performance”.

  • United backed to sign Felix

    Gabby Agbonlahor has urged Man United to axe four stars and poach Joao Felix from under the noses of Chelsea.

    Agbonlahor told Football Insider: “I really like what he’s [Felix] done so far. I’ve seen a different side to him at Chelsea. At Atletico, he was playing too deep and wasn’t suited to how they play.

    “At Chelsea, you see him getting on the ball, twisting past players – and he’s got a bit of pace as well. I really like him, but he’s got to be more clinical.

    “I don’t see any reason why Man United can’t get him. They need options if they’re in the Champions League next season.

    “Martial isn’t good enough, nor is Weghorst – scrap them. Antony and Sancho haven’t been great, so you’re talking about Rashford as their only threat.

    “They need help, or it could be an embarrassing time in the Champions League for them. Felix, for me, would be a good signing for them.”

  • EVAN ALMIGHTY

    Evan Ferguson is set to become the subject of a transfer tug-of-war between three clubs, according to reports.

    The teenage sensation has burst onto the scene this season, scoring eight goals since his breakthrough into Brighton’s senior team.

    Despite his youth, the qualities he is showing have seen interest in him emerge from Manchester United and Tottenham.

    The Daily Mail report the two sides want the 18-year-old striker in the summer.

    In the Man Utd camp, Erik ten Hag wants to overhaul his strikeforce by bringing in Ferguson and a more experienced striker.

    One of the stars they are most linked with is Harry Kane at Spurs.

  • United legend facing sack

    Former Man United star Paul Ince is reportedly on the brink of being sacked by Reading.

    It comes after the Royals’ latest 2-1 defeat against Preston left them in the Championship relegation zone with just five games to go.

    The result means Reading are without a win in their last eight games, with their most recent win coming back in February.

    According to The Telegraph, the Reading board held crisis talks over Ince’s future at the club on Saturday following the 1-1 draw with Birmingham.

    The club’s situation has not been helped after being deducted six points by EFL.

  • McTominay linked with Hammers

    Man United midfielder Scott McTominay has been linked with a move to West Ham by various reports.

    The Scottish star could leave Old Trafford in the summer as one of many fringe players to be sold to bolster the club’s transfer budget.

  • Good morning Man Utd fans

    Man Utd are interested in signing Celta Vigo starlet Gabri Veiga, according to reports.

    The Red Devils are “keeping tabs” on the 20-year-old having been impressed by his displays in Spain this season.

    Veiga, 20, has bagged nine goals and laid on four assists in 26 LaLiga appearances from midfield this term.

    But according to Football Insider, Arsenal are also keen on making a bid and could cough up more cash.

    Meanwhile, Man Utd have been told to pay £35million for Brentford goalie David Raya.

    The Spaniard is being eyed as a replacement for compatriot David De Gea.

    Finally, Wolves are still working on a long-term deal for contract rebel Ruben Neves.

    The Portuguese midfielder’s deal at Molineux runs out next summer.

    However, SunSport understands Wolves are preparing a last-gasp attempt to stop the 26-year-old leaving for a cut-price fee.

    Arsenal were previously monitoring the situation, while Manchester United have come close to nabbing the £40m-rated playmaker on two separate occasions.

    Man Utd representatives were in Rotterdam on Wednesday for the KNVB Cup semi-final clash between Ten Hag’s former club Ajax and Feyenoord.

    It is understood that they were there to watch Kokcu and Gimenez in action, with both men impressing on the night.

  • Unlucky number for summer exits

    Man Utd are ready to clear the shelves this summer.

    That’s by ditching a whopping 13 players.

    The Mail claims stalwarts like captain Harry Maguire will leave Old Trafford this summer.

    And that will open the door for Erik ten Hag to bring in numerous signings who fit his tactics better.

  • Candy Kane sweet for Devils

    Man Utd have been given a boost in their pursuit of Harry Kane.

    That’s because Bayern Munich admit they may not be able to afford the England captain this summer.

    Kane could finally leave Tottenham as he approaches the end of his contract and career.

    But Bayern’s chief financial officer Dr Michael Diederich revealed: “I don’t rule anything out but can we afford such a transfer and do we want such a transfer? We have to keep an eye on our profitability.”

  • Super Harry on the up

    Erik ten Hag believes Harry Maguire is finally proving his worth to Man Utd.

    The Dutchman said: “It is not that easy for Harry [to be rotated]. And then if you then deliver the performance he did today, really well done, in and out of possession, dominating and dictating.

    “I think this is a different Harry Maguire [to] what I have seen in the first weeks, months.

    “He’s taken so much initiative, dominating his opponent, stepping in, bringing passes. So a really great performance from Harry.”
