      Cristiano Ronaldo will stay at Juventus and not seek transfer away, says club legend and vice president Pavel Nedved

      by

      CRISTIANO RONALDO has been tipped to stay at Juventus by vice president Pavel Nedved, ending any transfer speculation.Ronaldo has just one year left on his contract with the Italians and having not extended it, question marks over his future were raised.

      PSG and former clubs Manchester United and Real Madrid have both been linked with the superstar forward.
      But Juve legend and now club chief Nedved have told them to forget about it, as Ronaldo is staying put.
      He told Sky Sport: “Ronaldo has been called up for July 26, he’ll be back on Monday and will stay with us.”
      Ronaldo, 36, is currently on holiday in Mallorca, having led Portugal to the last 16 of the European Championships in the summer.
      According to Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport, he is expected to arrive in Turin very shortly to discuss his future with Juve.
      He signed for the Serie A giant in 2018 for £99million from Real Madrid and won the league in his first two seasons.
      But under Andrea Pirlo, 42, last term it was a disaster for the club, who only just finished fourth and missed out on the title for the first time in ten years.
      Pirlo has since been replaced by Massimiliano Allegri – who left the club in 2019 – but it has not yet convinced Ronaldo to commit his future.

      PSG is seen as realistic destination, although it is believed they will NOT make a move unless Kylian Mbappe leaves.
      Frenchman Mbappe, 22, has been a long-time transfer target of Real Madrid.
      But as was the case with Nedved, 48, PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi promised the forward will not be going anywhere.
      He told L’Equipe: “I will be clear. Mbappe is going to stay in Paris.
      “We will never sell him and he will never leave on a free. Mbappe has everything he needs in Paris.”

      Ole Gunnar Solskjaer signs new three-year Man Utd deal to stay as manager at Old Trafford until 2024

      by

      OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER has extended his Manchester United contract with a new three-year deal, it has been confirmed. The club legend, who won the Champions League and Premier League as a player, will now be at Old Trafford until 2024, with an option for a further year.

      He said: “Everyone knows the feeling I have for this club, and I am delighted to have signed this new contract.
      “It is an exciting time for Manchester United, we have built a squad with a good balance of youth and experienced players that are hungry for success.
      “I have a fantastic coaching team around me, and we are all ready to take that next step on our journey.
      “Manchester United wants to be winning the biggest and best trophies and that’s what we are all striving for.
      “We have improved, both on and off the pitch, and that will continue over the coming seasons. 
      “I can’t wait to get out in front of a packed Old Trafford and get this campaign started.”
      Solskjaer returned to United in 2019 after the sacking of Jose Mourinho, initially as caretaker manager.
      But after impressing in the hot seat, he was handed a permanent contract and last season completed his first full campaign in charge.

      The Norwegian guided United to a second-placed league finish, coming runners-up to rivals City.
      And they faced further heartbreak after losing on penalties to Villarreal in the Europa League final.
      But still, the impressive domestic and European run has convinced Old Trafford chiefs to put their trust in Solskjaer even further with a new deal.

      It caps off an incredible week for the United manager, who has finally signed Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund.
      The England forward, 21, arrived for £73million, a year after seeing a move to Manchester collapse with Dortmund holding out for £108m.
      But after ending the long-drawn out transfer saga, Solskjaer told United’s website: “He’s such a creative, positive winger and forward player.
      “He can play wide, nip into the pockets and he excites the fans.
      He takes people on one-against-one, he creates chances, he works hard and he loves football.
      “And there is some untapped talent there I am sure, and coming into this environment will help him improve as well.”

      by

      The Red Devils are chasing the teen irrespective of French teammate Paul Pogba’s future
      It was claimed earlier this month that the Red Devils were eyeing up a £26million bid to lure the teenager to Old Trafford.
      Chelsea are another club that are believed to have held talks with his agent Jonathan Barnett, along with LaLiga giants Real Madrid.
      And while his priority is to stay in France to join Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal are said to have made him their No1 target.
      COMPETITION: SPOT THE BALL TO WIN A CAR AND CASH
      Yet according to the Manchester Evening News, Camavinga’s preference is a move to Spain amid strong interest from top-flight sides in England.
      The report adds that United have held discussions with the Frenchman’s representatives that were described as ‘not encouraging’.
      Camavinga burst onto the scene towards the end of the 2018-19 season where he became Rennes’ youngest-ever player at just 16-years-old
      His fine form saw him be called up to the France squad last August, where he became Les Bleus’ youngest debutant since Maurice Gastiger in 1914.
      SunSport revealed this week that United are drawing up a list of midfield targets amid mounting fears they will be forced to sell Paul Pogba.

      The Red Devils are preparing the prospect of £89million record signing Pogba quitting United for a SECOND time.
      His Old Trafford contract expires in summer 2022 and he has given no indication as yet that he is willing to commit to a new one.
      And Leon Goretzka is thought to be a key target as United look to take advantage of the German’s similar stand-off with Bayern Munich.

      Bayern are in talks over extending the midfielder’s contract, which runs out in 2022.
      The 26-year-old’s agent, Jorg Neubauer, was recently forced to retire and Neubauer’s wife has taken charge instead along with Bundesliga heavyweight agent Thomas Kroth.
      However, Sport Bild claims Goretzka’s camp are ‘irritated’ that contract talks have not yet resumed over an improved extension.
      The star has emerged as a target for Real Madrid and Barcelona, as well as a host of Premier League clubs.
      Manchester United are seemingly in pole position to snap up the Bayern star.
      Reports in Germany state United have tabled a ‘concrete offer’ to the ace for him to join them when he becomes a free agent in June.
      The Red Devils are not actively pursuing a new central midfielder at the moment.
      But with Paul Pogba’s future still uncertain, it appears Goretzka could be targeted as his replacement with a reported £200k-a-week package.

      He told talkSPORT: “My question would be, why is he leaving Real Madrid veryone’s making out he’s the best centre-half in the world, so why is he leaving Real Madrid?
      “They need a centre-half and if they did get him, it improves the team massively. It would be a top signing and it was a position they definitely needed to improve.
      “It’s world class, Varane and Maguire. But I’d worry a little bit potentially for pace. I saw Varane get torn apart by Chelsea in the Champions League.
      “Pace would be something that teams would try and exploit against them two.”

      Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been keen to find a suitable partner for England international Maguire with Victor Lindelof guilty of inconsistent performances.
      And while United fans are purring over the potential arrival of the 2018 World Cup winner, O’Hara has expressed concern over the 28-year-old.
      The former Tottenham midfielder has stated that while Maguire and Varane would form a world class partnership, they could be exposed by pace.
      He told talkSPORT: “My question would be, why is he leaving Real Madrid?
      “Everyone’s making out he’s the best centre-half in the world, so why is he leaving Real Madrid?

      Chelsea line up transfer swoop for ex-Man Utd keeper Sergio Romero as they step up search for third-choice stopper

      by

      CHELSEA could turn to ex-Manchester United keeper Sergio Romero in their hunt for a third-choice stopper, reports say. Thomas Tuchel is searching for more reinforcements between the posts after Argentine Willy Caballero, 39, was released in the summer.
      Sergio Romero is linked with a move to ChelseaCredit: Getty
      According to The Telegraph, Caballero’s countryman Romero, also without a club, is emerging as a possibility.
      He has been at United since 2015 and largely provided backup for long-time No1 David de Gea, 30.
      But after the emergence of England’s Dean Henderson, 24, last season, Romero, 34, fell further down the pecking order.
      He was due to join Everton on loan before the start of last campaign until United blocked the move at the last minute.
      After being completely outcasted from the Old Trafford setup, Romero spent much of last season away in Argentina.
      He has since been linked with moves to Juventus, Everton again and now Chelsea.
      The Blues moved for Edouard Mendy, 29, from Rennes last summer and the Senegal international replaced Kepa Arrizabalaga, 26, as No1.
      Mendy kept 25 clean sheets in his 45 appearances, including one in the Champions League final win against Manchester City.
      DREAM TEAM IS BACK! SIGN UP NOW FOR THE 21/22 SEASON FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN £100,000

      Kepa, who in 2018 became the most expensive keeper ever at £71.6m, managed just 14 games last season, six coming in the FA Cup.
      The Spaniard has been in talks to leave before but his wages of around £150,000-per-week would prove a stumbling block.
      A transfer back to Spain, initially on loan, has been mooted in the past with Mendy now established as Chelsea’s first-choice keeper.
      Chelsea have also been linked with a move for Middlesbrough’s Marcus Bettinelli, 29, and Wayne Hennessey, 34, who instead joined Burnley.

      Man Utd ‘AGREE Raphael Varane deal in principle’ with just transfer fee left to thrash out with Real Madrid

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly agreed a deal in principle to sign Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane.The 28-year-old centre-back has been negotiating a deal with the Premier League giants in what would be one of the biggest signings of the summer.
      Man Utd are now speaking ‘directly’ to Real Madrid regarding a transfer for Raphael VaraneCredit: Getty
      According to Telefoot, all that is left is for Real and United to agree a transfer fee for the French defender.
      Man Utd are said to be offering a fee in the region of £43million but Madrid are holding out for a sum in excess of £50m.
      Italian football journalist Fabrizio Romano had earlier offered an update and claims the two clubs have been in talks for the past week.
      He tweeted: “Manchester United are in direct contact with Real Madrid for Raphaël Varane since one week. Varane wants a Premier League experience but he’ll be respectful. He’s not breaking his relationship with Real. It’s up to the two clubs to reach an agreement. Talks on.”
      Varane’s contract in the Spanish capital has now entered the final 12 months and he could potentially walk away for nothing next year.
      This means Madrid will have to sell him now if they expect to receive a sizeable transfer fee for the former Lens ace.
      Varane signed for Los Blancos back in 2011 and has played 360 times for the club.
      In a glittering period at Madrid, the defender has won three LaLiga titles, the Copa del Rey and four Champions Leagues.
      During that time he has also won the 2018 World Cup with France where he was named in the team of the tournament.
      United are hopeful they will secure Varane’s services within the next 12 days.
      It is believed they will make an offer to sign the France international this week, with personal terms not believed to be an issue. Chelsea have also been linked with a move for the ex-Lens ace, but the player’s preference is to join United.

      Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer laughed off talk of Varane’s imminent arrival at Carrington after the 2-1 friendly win against Derby on Sunday.
      Asked for his view on the potential deal, Solskjaer could not conceal a smile.
      Laughing, he said: “Varane? I only speak about players when we sign them.”
