      He could leave for nothing in June 2023 or, if the Bundesliga giants decide to cash in, possibly go this summer.
      A number of clubs are beginning to circle – and now the Red Devils seem to have joined the chase.
      That is according to 90 mins, who state there is ‘concrete’ interest from Old Trafford and the Premier League in Lewandowski.
      Bayern Munich are believed to be lining up a swoop for Dortmund hotshot Erling Haaland as a replacement.
      They will face a major fight to secure the Norwegian as Paris Saint Germain, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea and Manchester City are among those who have shown an interest.
      Lewandowski’s agents are now considering their options in case Bayern do decide to sell the superstar this summer.

      And this latest report also states that United have asked to be kept informed about his situation.
      But they are not the only club looking to bring Lewandowski to England after we reported Arsenal were eyeing a swoop earlier this week.
      And they would face fierce competition for his signature as Atletico Madrid became another team linked with a move.
      Both Chelsea and Real Madrid are also keen on the ex-Dortmund star.
      It has also previously been claimed that he wants to test himself in another top league while still in his pomp.
      He has been crowned Fifa’s best player for the past two years and remained non-committal on his future after helping his team win at Frankfurt last weekend.
      Lewandowski told Sky Sports in Germany: “I am open to everything. I’m quiet.
      “It is important for me to be able to focus on my game, always on what can happen in the last match.
      “Everything that remains to be done regarding the contracts is a secondary issue and remains in the background.”

      by

      Rice’s current deal with the club runs out in June 2024 – with no talks so far to extend.
      And the England international has hinted yet again his future may lie away from the club after admitting he sees himself as one of the best players in the world.
      Asked about his desire to win trophies and play in the Champions League, Rice said: “It is as urgent as possible. I feel like, not only for me, that’s for every young player as well.
      “I see friends that are close to me, big players winning big trophies. You want to be a part of that. You want to be remembered in this career for what you’ve won.
      “I feel like I am one of the established top players around the world. I am only 23.
      “But in terms of my playing ability and the way I’ve performed consistently, I see myself as an established player now who’s got good experience and can play at any level if required.

      “We are really close with West Ham at the minute and last season it was gutting to lose out on it but we are pushing.
      “We’ll keep going. Champions League is a big aim of mine and hopefully one day I can play in it, and these moments I am having now can spur me on to be even better.”
      West Ham are currently fifth – two points behind Man United in fourth – but the top four looks out of their control with Arsenal and Tottenham having games in hand.
      Moyes’ men also came close last season before finishing sixth – and Rice has been a key figure for both club and country in recent seasons.
      He lifted the Player of the Year at the London Football Awards on Thursday evening – three years after picking up the Young Player of the Year title.
      £100MILLION VALUATION
      Asked about his £100m valuation, Rice added: “You hear those numbers and for me it is crazy. All I can do is go out there and perform, regardless of the price tag.
      “I just need to focus on playing well and performing at the best level I can.”
      Rice revealed in an interview with Gary Neville on ‘The Overlap’ that he would like to remain in the capital – specifically near his family in west London.
      He was brought up a Blues fan and was in their academy – alongside best pal Mason Mount – and his release before joining West Ham still acts as a motivator.
      Rice said: “I was released by Chelsea at 14, that was a setback. I was nearly released by West Ham at 16, that was nearly a setback.
      “I’ve had big games where we’ve lost, like the Euros final with England. It really spurs you on to want to improve.” More

      Man Utd target world-class centre-back transfer ‘throwing Harry Maguire and two other defenders’ futures into doubt’

      by

      HARRY MAGUIRE’S future at Manchester United is reportedly in doubt as the club plot a swoop to sign a ‘world-class’ centre back.Stories emerged on Thursday that the captain’s team-mates are questioning why he is continually picked by interim boss Ralf Rangnick despite some poor displays.

      The 28-year-old was rested for the draw with Watford and replaced by Victor Lindelof but looks set to return to the side for Sunday’s Manchester Derby.
      Rangnick has supported his skipper publicly and insisted he will not take the armband off him.
      However, the Daily Mail states that a ‘new centre-back will be high on United’s list of targets’ in the summer transfer window.
      Chelsea star Antonio Rudiger becomes a free agent in June and the Red Devils are targeting the German.
      Barcelona’s Uruguayan ace Ronald Araujo is another potential option while United have also been linked with Dortmund’s Manuel Akanji.
      And it is not only Maguire that will be looking over his shoulder amid the club’s search for defensive improvements.

      This latest report also states that both Eric Bailly and Phil Jones face uncertain futures at Old Trafford.
      It also claims ‘that Maguire has upset a number of team-mates this season by openly blaming them on the pitch for making mistakes when his own form has been so erratic’ along with some of his post-match remarks in the media.
      The player and club have also dismissed talk of a ‘power struggle’ between him and Cristiano Ronaldo.

      Man Utd ‘launch transfer bid for Manuel Akanji’ as Dortmund start looking at replacement defenders

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly made an offer for Borussia Dortmund’s Manuel Akanji.The Switzerland international has caught the eye after a string of good performances in the Bundesliga.
      Borussia Dortmund’s Manuel Akanji reportedly has an offer from Manchester UnitedCredit: Getty
      Akanji’s current contract expires in 2023, meaning Dortmund could be forced to sell this summer in order to yield maximum profit.
      German outlet SportBILD previously reported that he could be sold for as little as £20million at the end of the season.
      Now the same publication has claimed that the defender has an ‘offer from Manchester United on the table’.
      Interim Red Devils boss Ralf Rangnick is believed to be a big fan of the ace and wants to bring him to Old Trafford.
      Dortmund though are keen for the 26-year-old to agree fresh terms.
      But his reported £160,000-a-week demands, double his current salary, could price Dortmund out of an extension.

      Freiburg’s Nico Schlotterbeck and Marseille’s Boubacar Kamara are both being targeted by Dortmund to fill the void should Akanji depart.
      Any potential move could spell trouble for United captain Harry Maguire.
      The England centre-back has come under massive scrutiny for his displays this term.
      Question marks have been raised over his ability at the very top level and a swoop for Akanji would suggest he would be seen as a replacement for the ex-Leicester City man.

      Italian outlet CalcioMercato have reported that landing Pogba again is a ‘priority’ for Juventus.
      The French playmaker spent four years at the Italian club before a world-record £109m move to Old Trafford.
      The World Cup winner reportedly pocketed a staggering £7.5m signing-on bonus in the deal.
      He made 178 appearances for the Turin team, scoring 34 goals and providing 40 assists.
      Juventus won FOUR consecutive Serie A titles with Pogba at the club.
      With the Red Devils playmaker leaving on a free, his old side will face stiff competition to fulfil his wage demands.

      Rangnick ‘losing patience’ with Cristiano Ronaldo and wants to replace Man Utd star with Arsenal transfer target Osimhen

      MANCHESTER UNITED boss Ralf Rangnick is reportedly ‘losing patience’ with striker Cristiano Ronaldo.And Napoli star Victor Osimhen has been touted as a potential replacement.

      Ronaldo has scored just ONE goal in his last ten games and has often cut a frustrated figure up front.
      And according to the Manchester Evening News, boss Ralf Rangnick has ‘major reservations’ about the 37-year-old leading the line next season.
      Rangnick is expected to take on a two-year consultancy role at the end of the season.
      But he is sure to prepare comprehensive reports on the squad for the new man – which could be bad news for Ronaldo.
      Rangnick’s ‘patience is wearing thin’ with the Portuguese star, and he has already highlighted the need for fresh blood in the final third.
      And Osimhen could be the man tasked with leading next season’s charge.

      Italian journalist and Napoli expert Ciro Venerato has hinted that United have already made contact with the player’s club.
      But United will have to find around £90million if they want to sign the 23-year-old Nigeria international.
      And they could lock horns with Premier League rivals Arsenal in the chase, with the Gunners also desperate for striking reinforcements.
      Tutto Napoli have reported that Osimhen ‘can leave Napoli at the end of the season’ – providing chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis’s valuation is met.
      Ronaldo looked far from happy after failing to score in a dull 0-0 draw with struggling Watford at the weekend.
      The crestfallen Portugal hero – who has previously stormed down the tunnel after matches this season – stood still on the pitch with his hands on his hips.
      He wagged his head and spat out in anger to the turf.
      Rangnick’s side mustered a total of 22 shots in the 90 minutes.
      Yet just three of those were on target against Watford’s defence, supported by ex-United goalkeeper Ben Foster in the Hornets net.

      ‘What are you dreaming at night?’ – Ralf Rangnick gives hilarious reaction to Man Utd fan’s Erling Haaland question

      by

      RALF RANGNICK produced an hilarious answer after being urged to make Erling Haaland one of three summer signings for Manchester United.The Red Devils, Man City and Real Madrid are all believed to be battling it out for Dortmund’s 21-year-old Norwegian hotshot.

      The star will be available due to a £64 million release clause in his contract this summer.
      And as United’s interim boss signed autographs outside Old Trafford after Saturday’s goalless draw with Watford, he was met with pleas by supporters.
      The German coach was being filmed signing a United No. 8 shirt when a fan asked him whether Haaland would be one of three ‘big names’ arriving before next season.
      The two other names mentioned were West Ham midfielder Declan Rice and Sevilla defender Jules Kounde, both of whom have been linked with United.
      But Rangnick amusingly had fellow supporters in stitches as he jokingly replied: “Who? What are you dreaming at night?!”
      The footage soon went viral, with one fan commenting: “I love Ralf Rangnick.”

      Another said: “I love Ralf’s honesty. He doesn’t hide anything & gives it all.”
      While a fellow fan tweeted: “Hahaha…Man is a realist, knows the Glazers prefer to get another old striker, midfielder and defenders on a free transfer than spend money to make this club a joy to all of us the fans instead of their pockets.”
      Rangnick is expected to move upstairs into a consultancy role in the summer and will have a considerable input into United’s transfer dealings.
      Haaland, who has 19 goals in 17 games this season, is believed to be keen on a move to Spain.
      However, if he does come to England then City would be his most likely destination.
      His father Alf-Inge spent three years playing for the Cityzens.
      And he would reportedly prefer him to go to his former club rather than Manchester United or Chelsea.

      Man Utd target transfer for Chelsea star Rudiger as part of new-look defence which could leave Maguire future in doubt

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED are reportedly ‘keen to land’ Antonio Rudiger on a free from Chelsea this summer – which could cast doubt on Harry Maguire’s future.The German defender, 28, is yet to agree a new contract with the Blues with his deal set to expire in June.

      SunSport previously reported that the German star’s situation was being monitored by the Red Devils.
      Now The Mirror claims Ralf Rangnick is a ‘big fan’ of Rudiger and wants to bring him to Old Trafford in the summer.
      And they state ‘it casts a shadow over the future of Maguire’ at United.
      The skipper has endured a difficult campaign at Old Trafford after failing to hit top form following injury.
      United have conceded the joint-most goals out of the Premier League’s top six and has led to many questioning whether Maguire has the ability to lead them at the top level.
      They have also been linked with offering Dortmund’s Manuel Akanji a ‘dream’ move to England.

      BETTING SPECIAL – GET EITHER CHELSEA OR LIVERPOOL AT HUGE 30/1 TO WIN CARABO CUP FINAL
      Rudiger is currently focused on helping Chelsea win more silverware this term after their recent Champions League and Club World Cup successes.
      He has been an ever-present for Thomas Tuchel’s side in the top-flight this term.
      But both Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain also want the star – and he is aware that he could pocket around £400,000-a-week by joining them for nothing.
      The Blues most recent contract offer to Rudiger is believed to have been around half of that figure.
