      Fans all say same thing about Man Utd star Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi as Kylian Mbappe targets PSG transfer exit

      by

      FANS are dreaming of Cristiano Ronaldo finally teaming up with Lionel Messi as Kylian Mbappe eyes a PSG exit.Manchester United’s unsettled icon Ronaldo, 37, and PSG attacker Messi, 35, have been the duelling GOATS of football for two decades.

      And social media ignited with talk of a link-up of legends after claims the French champions are willing to sell “fed-up” strike star Mbappe.
      Many fans believe Ronaldo replacing him at PSG in January would be the perfect solution.
      It’s claimed the big-spending Parisiens won’t let Mbappe go to Real Madrid and would prefer he went to Liverpool.
      The speculation left supporters posting comments like: “Ronaldo to link up with Messi at PSG in January. Let’s go.”

      Another tweeted: “Mbappe wants to leave PSG, Ronaldo wants champions league football, swap Mbappe and Ronaldo let the GOATS be on the same team -we get a Haaland and Mbappe rivalry.”
      One fan noted the clamour for seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi and five-time king Ron to pair up by saying: “It has to happen. It’s what the internet needs.”
      Some Old Trafford supporters reckon the perfect solution would be a swap deal with PSG.
      But Mbappe could cost £150million, whereas Ronaldo’s transfer value is now around £10m.

      The Brazilian plans to remove the “PP” and replace it with an “AS” for “Antony Santos”.
      Antony told ESPN recently: “Yeah, there was an old owner, but I’m going to need to change this [pool table cover], this ‘PP’. It was Paul Pogba’s house. There is a ‘P’ from Pogba still here.
      “This is one of the things he made, so I’m going to start to change, right? I need to put the ‘AS’ for Antony Santos.
      “He isn’t staying here anymore. Yeah, he [Pogba] has a high standard, but I’m happy to be in the house that belonged to a star player.”
      Antony has hit the ground running at United as he has already registered five goals and two assists in nine appearances across all competitions.
      The ex-Ajax star also became the first ever player to score in all of his first three Premier League matches for the Red Devils on Sunday against Everton. More

      by

      The 26-year-old signed a contract until 2025 when he joined from Peterborough two years ago.
      Since then he has established himself as a feared Prem forward and was the Bees’ top scorer last season with 14 goals.
      He has also started this campaign strongly with six goals and three assists.
      That return includes a devastating hat-trick against Leeds at the start of September which came ahead of his first England call-up.

      And Leeds, Manchester United, Newcastle and West Ham have all been linked with a move for the Northampton youth team product.
      The Mirror say Brentford chiefs are now keen to tie Toney down to a longer contract with improved terms in a bid to “keep him happy in west London.”
      They understand the deal would include a “hefty but not prohibitive release clause”.
      Toney has had a mixed time with the Bees and had to apologise in January after a video of him saying “f**k Brentford” while on holiday in Dubai was published on social media.

      I News claims Newcastle have revived their interest in Foxes playmaker Maddison after missing out on him last summer.

      Leicester are more than willing to meet that bargain price tag.
      And should they receive a huge fee for Maddison, likely to be upwards of £50m, the Foxes will still have a tasty amount left in the bank to strengthen other areas of their squad. More

      But along with the rest of the squad, Lingard has failed to make an impression on the top flight this season.
      Monday’s 4-0 thumping at Leicester City left Forest rock bottom of the Premier League.
      It was their fifth defeat in a row – with just one win from eight matches.
      And now things have gone from bad to worse for the former England international.

      He has been named on the substitute’s bench for the head-to-head with Steven Gerrard’s side.
      Cooper is putting his stamp on things after signing a shock new three-year contract as Forest gaffer.
      That is despite the Welshman being among the favourites to be the next Premier League boss to be sacked.
      The 42-year-old took over from Chris Hughton last September and led Forest from relegation candidates to Championship play-off winners last season in a superb turnaround.
