      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED have received TEN offers from clubs wanting to take Anthony Elanga on loan for the rest of the season, according to reports.The Red Devils winger, who came off the bench in Saturday night’s 3-1 FA Cup victory over Reading, has started just seven games under Erik ten Hag this season.

      That is compared to the 20 outings he got last term under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick.
      Swedish international Elanga, 20, and United were approached earlier this month by PSV over a deal to take him to the Eredivisie club.
      Everton were also linked with a potential swoop before Frank Lampard was sacked and replaced by Sean Dyche.
      And Borussia Dortmund are the latest team interested in securing Elanga’s services.

      However, now transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has claimed that the above face serious competition in the transfer chase.
      In fact, he states that there are at least TEN sides keen.
      He tweeted: “Manchester United have received 10 proposals to sign Anthony Elanga on loan – PSV Eindhoven are pushing after Borussia Dortmund request.”
      But Romano claimed that any deal will not go through until the final stages of the transfer window, which closes at 11pm on January 31.

      He added: “No green light from Man Utd as of now, decision to be made in final 24/48h.”

      He has contributed four goals and four assists in 49 appearances for United. More

      And that move could have a knock-on effect for Man Utd.
      Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano reports Lindelof is among Inter’s top targets.
      But the Red Devils are not keen to sell to avoid having to go into the transfer window themselves.
      Romano tweeted: “Inter are exploring options to replace Milan Skriniar in case agreement will be reached with PSG to anticipate the deal in January.

      “Victor Lindelof, option in the list but Man Utd want to keep him – as Lille don’t want to sell Tiago Djalo now.”
      Djalo has been linked with an Old Trafford move in recent weeks but United do not appear set to move for the 22-year-old in this window.
      The Red Devils bought Lindelof in 2017 but he has faded into the background this season after the arrival of Lisandro Martinez in July.
      The Swede has only made six Premier League appearances this season and appears to have slipped down the pecking order behind Martinez, Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire.

      The 28-year-old has been largely limited to cup appearances, including Saturday’s 3-1 victory over Reading.
      Lindelof may not be needed if Inter can keep hold of Skriniar.
      But they face a challenge from PSG and even potentially interest from the Premier League.
      Inter are also believed to have eyes on former Man Utd defender Chris Smalling who has reportedly handed in a transfer request at Roma. More

      Cheeky Man Utd fans demand statue of Adrien Rabiot’s mum after Casemiro’s stunning FA Cup double

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED fans were left thanking Adrien Rabiot’s mum after last night’s FA Cup victory over Reading. Casemiro’s double saw United gain passage to the fifth-round of the competition as the Brazilian once again stole the show at Old Trafford.

      His formidable performances since arriving in August have gained plaudits from fans and pundits – but it may have all been so different.
      Rabiot was originally United’s main target to fill the hole in their midfield but the deal could not be done.
      It has been reported that the robust demands of his agent mother, Veronique Rabiot, was the reason the move collapsed.
      United fans could not help but pay tribute to her role in allowing Casemiro to wind up in Manchester.

      One fan said on Twitter: “Thank you, Veronique Rabiot for giving us the best defensive midfielder in the world.
      One supporter went even further with a tongue-in-cheek demand to “dedicate a statue” in the agent mum’s honour.
      Another said: “Rabiot, we’ve all forgotten about him. Thank you, Véronique!”
      And another fan, trying to underline the importance of Casemiro, said: “I’m telling you now. Take Casemiro out of that United side and replace him with Rabiot and we’d be 10 points worse off in the league at least.

      “He’s absolutely pivotal to the improvement in this side.”
      United are enjoying their most competitive season in years under Erik ten Hag.
      A brilliant run of form following the World Cup had even sparked talk of a title challenge before last week’s defeat at the Emirates when Casemiro was suspended.
      Despite that disappointment, United have bounced back with two victories in the cup competitions this week.
      The Red Devils now have a FA Cup fifth round draw to look forward to and have one foot at Wembley for the Carabao Cup.
      Next month will also see a huge Europa League clash as United face off against Barcelona over two legs. More

      Watch Christian Eriksen limp out of Old Trafford on crutches as Man Utd star suffers injury after Andy Carroll tackle

      by

      ERIK TEN HAG has been left to sweat over the fitness of Christian Eriksen after he was spotted leaving Old Trafford on crutches. Eriksen, 30, was on the receiving end of a nasty challenge from Andy Carroll during the FA Cup clash between Manchester United and Reading on Saturday.

      Carroll received two yellow cards in the space of five minutes for fouls on Tyrell Malacia and Man of the Match Casemiro.
      Fans went online to blast the “crazy” challenges, but it was a scissor kick from behind against Eriksen – which went unpunished – that is set to have the biggest impact.
      The Danish international went off in the 57th minute for Fred.
      However, Ten Hag and United fans alike will now be sweating over his fitness after Eriksen was spotted leaving Old Trafford on crutches with a suspected ankle injury.

      Following the game, Ten Hag said: “It’s always difficult to say so soon after the game finished, but it’s an ankle [injury] and we have to see what the diagnosis is.
      “It will be a minimum of 24 hours before we know that, and then I can say more.”
      Eriksen, who joined for free in the summer after his short-term contract at Brentford expired, has been a key component of United’s engine room throughout the season.
      He has featured in all but one game across all competitions for the club.

      But now it seems he could be handed a prolonged absence, which will come as a bitter blow to United with some key fixtures coming up next month.
      This includes a Carabao Cup final – should they not lose their three-goal lead over Nottingham Forest – the return of the Europa League and the top four race.
      With Donny van de Beek’s season prematurely concluded through injury as well, one might be forgiven for believing United’s midfield could do with some extra cover.

      by

      So now he has been in touch with his closest friends in the squad to try and arrange a visit to his homeland — or even visit him in Saudi Arabia.
      Ronaldo left United in November after criticising the club in an interview with Piers Morgan.
      He signed a £170million-a-year deal with Saudi side Al Nassr — the richest football deal ever.
      Ronaldo, 37, is currently having a luxury home built on the outskirts of Lisbon and has texted some of his pals at United about getting together over the summer.

      He has also asked if they would be interested in watching him play for his new club in the Middle East, if schedules allow it.
      A United insider said: “There are still a few lads here who have nothing but respect for Ronny and were sad how it all ended, because they never got to say a proper goodbye.
      “He recently left the player WhatsApp groups but promised to keep in touch with a few and has invited them to his new place in Lisbon and to Saudi to watch him play.
      “Harry Maguire, Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro and Raphael Varane are all mates.

      “His place in Lisbon sounds incredible — and he can certainly now afford it!”
      It is understood Ronaldo has also shipped his fleet of luxury motors back to Portugal.
      The United source added: “A couple of the lads at the training ground hoped he’d raffle off one of his supercars, like Sergio Aguero did when he left City!”
      Aguero gave City’s first-team staff a raffle ticket for his £40,000 Range Rover when he left the Etihad in 2021.
      It was won by Ally Marland, one of the club’s kitmen. More

      The first goal Casemiro broke through the defensive line and cleverly dinked the on-rushing goalkeeper after a good pass from Antony.
      The second goal was just as impressive as he tried his luck from 30 yards.
      The former Real Madrid star’s effort did take a slight touch off a Reading defender, but it still buried itself in the corner of the net.
      Royals goalkeeper Joe Lumley didn’t have much of a chance with either effort.

      But the club’s plan is to hold on until their ex-loan star Gallagher becomes available from Chelsea and AWB is squeezed out at Manchester United.
      Midfielder Gallagher, 22, and right-back Wan-Bissaka, 25, have both seen first-team action this month despite huge question marks over their futures.
      Wan-Bissaka had seemed destined for the axe from the Red Devils but he has managed to make the most of his chance.
      His opportunity came after the injury to Diogo Dalot, but it still remains to be seen if he has saved his long-term future at the club.

      And Palace are recalling Luke Plange from Belgian side RWD Molenbeek.
