      Mason Greenwood could be forced to take part in TV interview to resurrect Man Utd career

      by

      MASON Greenwood could be ‘exposed’ to a grilling in a TV interview if Manchester United reintroduce him to their first-team squad.The striker, 21, has not played for the club since charges of attempted rape, assault occasioning actual bodily harm and controlling and coercive behaviour were brought against him in October last year.

      He remains suspended by the club but all charges against him were dropped in February and he could make a return to Old Trafford if he is cleared by an internal investigation.
      Now, though, he could face a TV interview as part of a “phased approach” to his comeback, according to a report in The Athletic.
      Sources told the outlet: “Under the scenario Greenwood stays, United would be likely to follow a phased process, taking into account the sentiment of fan groups, sponsors and the women’s team at differing stages.
      “It would include encouraging Greenwood to receive a form of counselling or therapy, ahead of a possible broader rehabilitation.

      “It has also been suggested that such an approach may also include exposing Greenwood to a television interview in which he is challenged on the events that have taken him to this point.”
      They added that the club “may seek to frame him as a young man who has made mistakes and is remorseful for his actions” and believe they have a responsibility to rehabilitate him.
      It comes after The Sun revealed that Greenwood is set to become a father for the first time as his partner has become pregnant.
      A source close to the couple said: “They and their families are both very happy and really looking forward to the baby’s arrival.”

      We also reported that he had met club bosses face to face for the first time since the charges against him were dropped as he bids to make his Red Devils return.
      The Sun on Sunday previously told how manager Erik ten Hag had held a telephone conversation with Greenwood after the charges were dropped.
      Meanwhile, The Sun revealed that the Three Lions ace had secret meetings with his teammates after the case against him was withdrawn.
      However, Greenwood’s hopes of a return to Old Trafford were endangered amid opposition from United’s female stars.
      The women’s team were said to be “disturbed” by the prospect of his return.
      Likewise, female fans of the club said that they felt he should never play for the club again.
      Meanwhile, a top sports lawyer said Greenwood may have lost “millions” after being dropped by major sponsors Nike.
      A PR expert added that any club taking him on, should United let him go, would take on a huge financial risk.
      Despite this, a Champions League team have made “enquiries” over a possible transfer, while Greenwood himself was reported to be eyeing a move abroad to restart his career if he’s dropped by his current club.

      Other European clubs are understood to have enquired about the star and his potential new league was revealed yesterday.
      Manchester United declined to comment.

      Gary Neville tells Harry Kane he must quit Tottenham NOW with Man Utd transfer his ‘only option’

      by

      GARY NEVILLE thinks that Harry Kane must leave Tottenham now, insisting the only transfer possible is to Manchester United. The pundit believes the striker should quit Spurs in the hunt to win trophies after failing to land any silverware so far in his career.

      Spurs were knocked out of the FA Cup by Sheffield United earlier this week, leaving the Champions League as Kane’s only chance to secure a trophy this season.
      Neville believes he is the missing piece for his former club and he should move to Old Trafford in the summer.
      He told Sky Sports: “Harry Kane is going to want to win trophies, I think.
      “It’s whether he sees it as being a case whereby he commits to Tottenham for his last five years and he does what some players have done.

      “Matt Le Tissier did it at Southampton. Other players have done it in the past who have played for England, where they’ve committed to a club because they love the club and they look after them.
      “But if Harry is going to leave, I think now is the moment.
      “He is a wonderful player, he’s a great professional, and I think if Harry Kane could leave now, and you could get him an exit out of there to a club in Manchester probably, United or City, I think he would take that opportunity.
      “It’s more than likely not going to be City because of their [Erling] Haaland expenditure and what they’ve done with him, but Manchester United are desperate for a centre-forward.

      “Tottenham fans will be furious with me, they’ll say it’s me coming on television trying to get their player to Manchester United. It’s not.
      “It just looks to me at this moment in time the most likely move.
      “Chelsea, I can’t see him going there. He’s quite loyal to Tottenham and there’s a big rivalry with Chelsea, so I don’t see that happening, even though they do need a centre-forward. 
      “He’s not going to go to Arsenal because of the rivalry, so Manchester United is the only option in England for Harry Kane this summer.”
      Spurs’ record goalscorer sees his contract expire at the club in the summer of 2024.
      Kane has been linked with switches to Bayern Munich and Man Utd.
      Neville previously stated he thinks adding him to Erik ten Hag’s current squad will lead to them winning the Premier League title next year.
      The ex-right-back also talked up the possibility of the Red Devils signing Declan Rice from West Ham. More

      Ex-Man Utd boss Sir Alex Ferguson QUIT days before Treble season in huge row with board before historical U-turn

      by

      SIR ALEX FERGUSON sensationally QUIT as Manchester United manager just days before the start of the Treble-winning season.In a stunning twist of events following the 1997/98 season, Ferguson resigned from his position at Old Trafford before taking it back up.

      It came after the United board at the time, comprising of then-chairman Martin Edwards and Sir Roland Smith, chairman of the club’s PLC board, expressed their doubts over Ferguson’s focus.
      The inside story, revealed by The Times, was the season after United lost out on the league title by a single point to Arsenal, after winning four of the previous five seasons.
      Ahead of the new season Edwards and Smith told Ferguson: “We are worried about your focus.”
      Their fears of this came from talk at the time of Ferguson revelling in his “celebrity status” and his passion for horse racing.
      read more football news
      Ferguson, perplexed with the line of questioning, directly questioned whether they were trying to force him out of the club – to which he was assured it was nothing of the sort.
      Transfers were also a hotly debated topic within the club’s hierarchy, with Ferguson pushing for the signing of Dwight Yorke despite doubts from assistant Brian Kidd and other members of the United board.
      Following the meeting, Edwards wrote a letter for Ferguson upon his return to pre-season training outlining all the concerns the board had.

      Edwards then revealed that within hours Ferguson stormed into the office raging and declaring he was going to resign: “The language Alex used was a little bit more fruity, but that was the basic gist of it.
      “Well, if that’s the way you feel, Alex, we’ll have to accept it,” Edwards replied, confident of calling the former Aberdeen manager’s bluff.
      Fortunately for United, the bluff worked and Ferguson withdrew his application later in the day.

      Gordon Strachan described Ferguson as being “driven by anger,” and following the butting of heads at the start of the season Ferguson was full of it.
      And it paid dividends as United won an unprecedented Treble that year – a feat yet to be replicated in English football.
      United also went on to win the next three Premier League titles, another feat which is yet to be replicated by a club or manager other than Ferguson’s United.

      Donny van de Beek must QUIT Man Utd and go back to Holland to save his career, claims ex-Red Devils star

      by

      DONNY VAN DE BEEK has been urged to quit Manchester United this summer.But the midfield flop should go back to Holland if he wants to save his career, says a former United star.

      Van de Beek, 25, was rated as one of Europe’s top attacking midfielders when he swapped Ajax for United in 2020.
      The Red Devils paid £40million for a player who netted 40 goals in his final three seasons with the Dutch giants.
      But Van de Beek’s Old Trafford career has not gone to plan after a series of unfortunate injuries.
      He has managed just two goals in 60 appearances, most of which have come from the bench.
      READ MORE ON MAN UTD
      And Van de Beek also endured a poor loan spell at Everton last season where he played just seven times.
      Despite having former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag at the helm this term, he has still struggled to make an impression.
      And former United star Paul Parker reckons Van de Beek must leave Old Trafford this summer.
      He feels there will never be a chance for the playmaker to cement his spot in the first team.

      But there are few takers for Van de Beek due to his £120,000-a-week wages.
      And Parker believes his flagging career would be best served by returning to Holland with Ajax or another of the country’s top sides.
      Parker told SoccerNews: “Even though it’s his old manager that sold him to Man United, I think Ten Hag knows it’s not going to work out for him.
      “I think he was used the wrong way under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and he arrived at a bad time due to Covid.
      “He might need to go back to Holland and revitalise his career. I don’t see him fitting into a Man United midfield now.” More

      His contract expires in 2025 so Dortmund could look to maximise their profits by selling when the transfer window re-opens.
      The German side are believed to want around £130m for the England international.
      But according to Spanish newspaper ABC Real Madrid do not want to pay that much.
      That could seriously hinder their chances of landing the midfielder with several other clubs interested.

      According to the report two unnamed Premier League clubs would be willing to match Dortmund’s valuation.
      Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City have all been linked with moves for Bellingham.

      Liverpool are also interested but that trio have the most financial power in the Prem.
      Despite that the Reds are said to be favourites to land the 19-year-old with Jurgen Klopp pushing to sign the superstar.

      The former Real Madrid ace is alleged to have bedded the beauty at the swish Solverde hotel in Vila Nova de Gaia, northern Portugal.

      WHAT HAS GEORGILAYA SAID ABOUT CRISTIANO RONALDO?
      Georgilaya alleges the former Manchester United icon sent a text inviting her to his room after she posed for selfies with players.
      She claims the liaison took place on March 25 last year as the Portugal captain Ronaldo and his team prepared for the Qatar World Cup.

      Man Utd and Chelsea in Jude Bellingham boost as Real Madrid put transfer operation on ice

      Liverpool are also believed to be prominent in the race to sign Bellingham, as well as Manchester City.
      But Los Blancos have now cooled their interest in the Borussia Dortmund midfielder, according to AS.
      The report claims that the stop in interest is because of the delay to Dortmund’s meeting to establish what Bellingham’s future would be.
      The 19-year-old has a contract at the Signal Iduna Park running until 2025 and the Bundesliga side value him at over £100million.
      READ MORE ON MAN UTD
      It has been suggested that Madrid would be willing to wait until the summer of 2024 to sign him when he could cost less money, as he would only have a year left on his contract.
      However, it looks increasingly unlikely that the England man will still be in Germany by then.
      And Bellingham’s Premier League suitors will try to wrap up a deal to sign him this summer.
      Dortmund director Sebastian Kehl, however, insists that the former Birmingham prospect is “comfortable” at the club.
      Most read in Football
      He said: “Jude feels very, very comfortable at Borussia Dortmund.

      “But we still haven’t had any new talks or received any offers for him.
      “He still has two more years on his contract and is a very important piece of this team.
      “We need Jude to achieve the objectives this season and we are glad that he is so focused on football and that there is no room for other matters in his head at the moment.”
      This season, Bellingham has scored ten goals in 30 appearances in all competitions. More
