      As for Rashford’s incredible transformation, Ten Hag added: “What I have done? He’s a good football player, incredibly good and his finishing attributes are high.
      “So, first of all, I make a culture where he can perform. Then I get him motivated and then construct a way of play where he can do it.
      “And fitness, as well, don’t forget that part. When those four aspects are there Marcus Rashford will score.
      “He can play as a centre forward, can play from the left, can play from the right. When you see his stats, he is scoring everywhere but he feels more comfortable as a centre forward or from the left.” More

      That took his tally for the 2022-23 Premier League campaign to 30 and 213 overall as he continues to chase down Alan Shearer’s record.
      However, where he will be playing his football next season still remains unclear with United and Real Madrid circling – especially as the striker enters the final year of his Tottenham contract.
      But asked about the talk linking him to Old Trafford, Kane insisted nothing has changed at this stage – and he could stick with his boyhood club.
      He told BT Sport: “No, no. That’s part and parcel of being a footballer – especially when you’re at the top of your game.

      “I’ve just been focusing on this season and trying to help the team as much as possible.
      “To score a couple today was nice, to finish that way, but all in all I’m just looking forward to a nice break and then a couple of games with England.
      “It has been a disappointing season. We can’t let this win dust over that. A lot to work on.
      “We have had to show fight in some moments. A club this size should not be finishing eighth and we need to go away enjoy a break and look how we can improve.”

      Kane will lead the Three Lions in the Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia next month.
      But the hot topic of his club future will not go away until a decision is made.
      Spurs, who are unable to offer any European football next season after finishing eighth, must decide whether to keep Kane and risk losing him for free or sell up this summer.
      United are desperate for a new No9 to lead Erik ten Hag’s side in the Champions League and help them compete for regular silverware again.
      They have made initial contact to sound out the White Hart Lane hero.
      Real Madrid, meanwhile, have identified the trophyless Kane as a suitable replacement for Karim Benzema.
      Jamie Redknapp has explicitly told Kane to force through an exit this summer to get out of Tottenham.
      ‘SPURS ARE A SHAMBLES’
      He said: “It’s the facts, it feels Spurs are a shambles, if you are Harry Kane with one year to go this is the time to leave he has to push now.
      “Manchester United they might get someone, he missed Man City a few years ago, right now he needs to push with one year on contract to go somewhere.
      “Tottenham are like a social experiment of how far you can push your fans before they completely lose it.
      “They need to do something, no one wants to lose Harry Kane, he has been incredible but deserves better.”
      And former Manchester United captain Roy Keane would be “excited” to see him lead the line for the Red Devils.
      The Irishman said: “They’re going to be linked with lots of players but the one that would excite you really is Kane.

      “I think Declan Rice would improve United, he would be a decent signing but in terms of the excitement and goalscoring, they’ve got to go for Kane.
      “But can you see Spurs selling to United? Very, very difficult.” More

      Roy Keane speaks out on Kane, Mount and Rice to Man Utd rumours ranking them from most exciting to worst target

      by

      ROY KEANE has had his say on Manchester United’s transfer plans for the summer – and ranked the options.The Red Devils are set for another big summer in the market as Erik ten Hag continues his rebuild ahead of their return to the Champions League.

      United, who finished third and 14 points off champions Manchester City, continue to be strongly linked with England trio Harry Kane, Declan Rice and Mason Mount.
      Kane is their primary target with the club desperate for a new No9 while best pals Rice and Mount could bolster the midfield.
      West Ham captain Rice could be on his way to Arsenal, though, while a Mount switch is dependent on United meeting Chelsea’s reported £55million valuation for their academy graduate who has one year left on his deal.
      But straight-talking Keane has no doubts which of the three targets is the most important to transforming the Old Trafford side.
      READ MORE ON MAN UTD
      Asked who can challenge Manchester City for the title next season, Keane told Sky Sports: “I hope it’s United, obviously depending on the takeover and recruitment.
      “They have to get a world-class striker but it’s going to be difficult because City are brilliant with a great, great manager.
      “I wouldn’t be so sure about Mount.
      “They’re going to be linked with lots of players but the one that would excite you really is Kane.”

      Micah Richards challenged him on his Mount comment.
      And former Red Devils skipper Keane continued: “He’s just gone off the boil a little bit. I know he can bounce back and he’s got qualities and I was raving about him a few years ago.
      “He’s just gone missing the last year or two, had one or two injuries, the fact he can’t get in a bad Chelsea team.
      “I wouldn’t be hanging my hat too much on him in terms of improving United and closing the gap, I think he’s a good player but would he improve United? I’m not so sure.
      “I think Rice would, he would be a decent signing but in terms of the excitement and goalscoring, they’ve got to go for Kane but can you see Spurs selling to United? Very, very difficult.”
      Kane has also been linked with Real Madrid while Newcastle could even make a shock swoop.
      So should United miss out on the England captain, the likes of Victor Osimhen, Randal Kolo Muani, Goncalo Ramos and Evan Ferguson are possible alternatives.

      Fred has improved under Erik ten Hag but that is unlikely to prevent the United boss from trying to improve his midfield options in the summer.
      West Ham captain Declan Rice has been heavily linked with a move but his £100million asking price could deter interest.
      While his pal Mason Mount is another United target, though the club is yet to strike a deal with Chelsea over his transfer. More

      And the midfielder has joked about the one thing he got wrong with Ron.
      The former Brentford, Inter Milan and Tottenham creator, 31, told how Old Trafford faced a battle of the deadball experts early in the season.
      Apart from Eriksen and five-time Ballon d’Or winner Ronaldo, that included Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford.
      And the set-piece set-to really kicked off when the ex-Ajax ace took a free-kick ahead of Portugal striker Ronaldo.

      Eriksen told United’s official website: “Even now at the club we have multiple takers who, if he’s had a good day, he’s going to have it.
      “I did take one [instead of Ronaldo], I think, but he wasn’t too happy with that! 
      “But then with the three we have now, it’s where we are on the pitch, how people are feeling, so it’s like ‘you had the last one, I’ll have the next one’.”
      But Eriksen also revealed a far smoother relationship with mid-pitch partners Fernandes and Casemiro.

      However, they are still celebrating after securing a sixth-place finish and Europa League football next term.
      Midfield duo Mac Allister, 24, and Caicedo, 21, have both played a key role in that success and have a host of top clubs chasing their services.
      And their manager is resigned to losing the pair of them once the transfer window re-opens.
      Speaking after the Villa loss, De Zerbi said: “I think it can be the last game of Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo.

      “I think it is right they can leave, change team and play at a higher level.”
      Mac Allister was spotted in tears after the defeat at Villa after seemingly playing his final game for the club.
      He has been linked with an array of top clubs following his superb World Cup winning exploits with Argentina.
      The 24-year-old has been linked with a move to Liverpool for a long time and is said to be very close to completing his transfer to Merseyside.

      Chelsea have also been reported as interested in the midfielder, but may struggle to attract him without European football while Man City have allegedly joined the chase to sign him. 
      Mac Allister has scored 10 goals and assisted a further two in the league this season and will likely command a huge fee if he does leave Brighton, with his contract not due to expire until 2025.
      Ecuadorian Caicedo helped the Seagulls secure Europa League football on Wednesday evening after a 1-1 draw with Manchester City.
      He had been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in the January transfer window, but Brighton clung on to their man.
      He then penned a new deal to keep him on the South Coast until 2027. But he is still expected to leave Brighton at the end of the season as both Chelsea and Arsenal circle for his signature.

      Man Utd fans say ‘the end is near’ as De Gea SAVES a penalty from Mitrovic in potential last game

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED fans were left in complete disbelief after David de Gea finally saved a penalty.The Spanish stopper had supporters fearing “the end is near” after he denied Aleksandar Mitrovic from the spot at Old Trafford against Fulham.

      United were already trailing Fulham after Kenny Tete’s near-post header from Willian’s corner.
      However, just moments later the 32-year-old prevented the Red Devils from falling two behind after Casemiro was punished for a foul in the box.
      Mitrovic stepped up but De Gea guessed the correct way and produced a brilliant stop as the Stretford End roared its approval.
      It proved to be a vital contribution from De Gea, who afterwards picked up the Golden Glove an award for keeping the most clean sheets this season (16), as United went on to win 2-1.
      READ MORE MAN UTD
      And that, incredibly, was his first penalty save at Old Trafford since he denied Leighton Baines in October 2014.
      De Gea has faced heavy criticism for his penalty saving record over recent times – with supporters stunned last month that they beat Brighton in the FA Cup semi-final via a shootout despite him failing to stop a single one.
      And he was heavily mocked after the 2021 Europa League final defeat to Villarreal where he conceded 11 penalties before missing United’s crucial one himself.
      However, he did save two in the Premier League last season, firstly from West Ham’s Mark Noble in September 2021 before denying Ismaila Sarr at Watford two months later.

      But despite that, the United faithful still appeared to be in shock to witness him produce a save – especially at the Theatre of Dreams.
      One tweeted: “Did I just see De Gea save a penalty????”
      Another wrote: “De Gea Penalty save? We’re winning the league next season.”
      Meanwhile, De Gea has so far failed to sign a new deal at United, which would see his present £375,000-a-week basic salary drop by nearly 50 per cent.
      He is out of contract next summer and wants to stay at Old Trafford but so far talks over fresh terms have stalled.
      United boss Erik ten Hag has given his public backing to the Spaniard, although it is understood concerns remain from the player’s camp that he may not be No.1 next season.
      And some even think that this penalty save was the perfect way for him to sign off at the club before a summer exit.
      One fan wrote: “DE GEA OMFG WHAT A FAREWELL PENALTY SAVE.”
      As another added: “Farewell penalty save for De Gea.”

      Although others just thought that the world was about the end as one wrote: “DAVID DE GEA SAVED A PENALTY. SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR LOVED ONES.
      “SOUND THE KLAXON. THE SIMULATION IS BROKEN.”
