      Mount revealed he had his heart set on Old Trafford after feeling that he was no longer wanted by Chelsea.
      He told MUTV: “Several months ago, it became clear that I wasn’t in Chelsea’s plans moving forward.
      “Once I knew that United were involved, my decision was made up.
      “A massive club, huge iconic players have played here, and I wanted to be a part of that from the beginning.
      “Getting in early and ready for pre-season to start was a main objective of mine as well.”

      Portuguese Fernandes is favourite to get the armband but his fellow midfielder Casemiro also sees himself as a leader.
      The Brazil ace, 31, picked up a wealth of experience during nearly a decade at Real Madrid and admits he enjoys being one of the main men.
      He said: “I like having this role. Being a leader, caring, being like a father, going after things.
      “I like to set an example, be the first to arrive. I like to play this role.

      “The captain’s armband is nothing more than a symbol but the players have the responsibility to talk to the referee, to the players.
      “I like to be that example player.”
      Casemiro also revealed how the chance to leave Madrid and join United last summer came at a perfect time for him.
      He agreed to the £60million move after helping the Spanish giants to Champions League glory just three months earlier.

      He told Brazilian sports magazine Placar: “It was the chance to leave a big club on top, at an age that still allows me to have that willpower.
      “If it were two or three years from now, I wouldn’t leave Real Madrid to go to another big one. I wouldn’t have that ambition to change leagues and leverage another giant club.”
      But Casemiro is loving the challenge of the Premier League and said: “It’s exactly what I thought.
      “The main thing is that there is no easy game here — first place plays last and is not sure of winning.” More

      In November 2019, the Frenchman was appointed as Fifa’s Chief of Global Football Development – a role which has seen him propose a radical update to the offside rule.
      With trials of the new rule – which will see the entire body of the attacker considered for offside offences rather than any one part – set to commence in Holland, Italy and Sweden, Wenger has now taken the time to unwind and catch some sun on the beach.
      Wenger was accompanied by a mystery brunette in a brown bikini as he lay on a sunbed in Mykonos, Greece.
      While laying down Wenger was seen wearing a white top and some sunglasses.

      Annie, a former French Olympic basketball player, began her relationship with Wenger in the mid-90s, before the pair welcomed daughter Lea in 1997.
      Wenger, who famously holds an obsession with football, revealed in 2008: “Ten years ago I said to my wife, ‘Five more years and that’s all’, and I am still here.
      “It is difficult to find time to see them but there are jobs [which are worse]. You have guys who leave for work on Monday and come back on Friday.
      “In my job I travel, but the problem is not so much the quantity of time you spend with your family, it is the quality.
      “That is where this job is more damaging. You do not always give them the quality they deserve when you are at home because you are thinking of the next game.”
      The popular holiday destination has previously seen visits from the likes of Jack Grealish, Raheem Sterling and Manchester United new-boy Mason Mount.

      I’ve been accused of injuring my Wimbledon boyfriend by having too much SEX… it happened with my Barcelona star ex too

      by

      TV PRESENTER Melissa Satta has hit out at online trolls after they accused her of distracting Wimbledon star Matteo Berrettini. The 37-year-old has said she has had enough of strangers online criticising her for the tennis ace’s injury struggles.

      Berrettini, 27, has reached the Round of 16 in SW19 after missing the Italian and Madrid Open’s with a persistent muscle tear issue.
      But it is Satta who has found herself coming under fire from fans.
      It is all too familiar territory for the TV host who found herself accused of having “too much sex” with ex-husband Kevin-Prince Boateng and triggering his injury problems.
      She went public with her new relationship with Berrettini at the beginning of the year but has faced a strange backlash from fans.

      Satta told Vanity Fair: “It was something that had been going on for months, when our story became known in January.
      “[They say] ‘Berrettini doesn’t win because Satta is distracting him, she’s too demanding’… But I held back.”
      Satta unleashed an epic social media rant last month where she raged against the “bullying and sexism” she had been subjected to.
      Berrettini has also hit back against the claims.

      Satta added of her experiences: “[This has happened before] with my ex-husband [Boateng] who suffered from pubalgia. 
      “Even there they attacked me saying that we had too much sex and that was the cause of his physical problems.
      “[The injury Berrettini has] is an injury in the same place as the one in 2021, when I didn’t know him. But in any case – do I really have to answer to these people?”
      Boateng is still playing at the age of 36 for German club Hertha Berlin.
      He has previously played for some of Europe’s biggest clubs including Barcelona, Dortmund and AC Milan.
      The former Ghana international also appeared in the Premier League for Tottenham and Portsmouth earlier in his career.
      In 2012 Melissa said: “The reason Kevin is injured so often is because we have sex seven to 10 times a week.
      “I hate foreplay, I want to go straight for it. I prefer to be on top so that I can be in control.”
      Meanwhile, Berrettini is hunting for his first Grand Slam win after losing the 2021 Wimbledon final to Novak Djokovic – who remains on course for a record-equalling eighth title.

      PSG ‘make Harry Kane top priority transfer as owner begins talks with Daniel Levy over midfielder swap’

      by

      HARRY KANE has emerged as incoming Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique’s “top priority” this summer, according to reports.The Spurs striker’s future has become one of the sagas of this transfer window amid Bayern Munich’s concrete interest.

      Kane has been the subject of two bids from Bayern, with Spurs rejecting an initial £56million bid and the German club preparing a £68m follow-up offer.
      But, according to French outlet PSG Community, the French giants are now entering the race to sign the England captain.
      They report that both manager Luis Enrique’s and owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi’s priority is to sign a statement number nine and want to conclude a deal for Kane swiftly.
      Khelaifi has reportedly held talks with Kane’s representatives and the club are prepared to offer Kane a five year deal worth around £260,000-a-week.
      READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWS
      The outlet claim Kane’s brother and agent, Charlie, has already held talks with Al-Khelaifi in Paris.
      Kane only has one year on his Spurs deal and supremo Daniel Levy does not want to sell to an English club.
      The Parisians are reportedly willing to include midfielder Fabian Ruiz in the deal – with Ange Postecoglou on the lookout for a new midfielder this summer.
      PSG are in the market for a new forward with Kylian Mbappe being unsettled and looking for a move away.

      Reports emerged in L’Equipe that a number of players have complained to Khelaifi over the Mbappe’s conduct so far this summer.
      The forward labelled the club a “divisive” one that “attracts gossip” during an off-season interview.
      Al-Khelaifi reportedly shares in the players frustrations and has set a July 31 deadline for Mbappe to decide whether he will leave PSG this summer or stay at the club.
      It is unlikely that any club will land Harry Kane below £100m this summer with Spurs chairman Levy remaining steadfast in his asking price. More

      But after a leaked image started doing the rounds on Twitter yesterday, fans put two and two together and realised some former stars had been airbrushed from the campaign.
      The behind the scenes picture showed a number of ex and current Chelsea players posing with fans on a sofa.
      And among the now ex-Chelsea players were Kai Havertz and Cesar Azpilicueta.
      Former Chelsea captain Azpilicueta took particular prominence in the shoot, stood front and centre of the photo with his arms folded.

      The Spaniard completed a move to Atletico Madrid last week, with the club agreeing to let him go on a free transfer after 11 years of service at the club.
      Meanwhile Havertz appeared in the promotion sat next to Dennis Wise to the right of the shot.
      Havertz departed Chelsea to join London rivals Arsenal in June in a £65m deal.

      Some eagle-eyed fans also pointed to the fact that Trevoh Chalobah appears in the original photo but did not make the final edit of the pictures – raising questions over his future.
      But a picture featuring Chalobah has since been shared on the club’s Instagram page.
      The kit launch also saw Chelsea become the first ‘big six’ team to release a shirt without a sponsor in the Premier League era.
      The club have have so far failed to attract a front of shirt sponsor they deem financially lucrative enough – after their £40million-a-year deal with phone company Three ran out.
      Todd Boehly had negotiated a deal with streaming service Paramount+ but it was blocked by the Premier League.
      The club then entered negotiations with gambling company stake but a deal fell through after fan backlash.
      With the kit not available to purchase until August 16 it is likely that the new shirt will not be released without a sponsor.
      The club warned: “Fans should be aware that the 2023-24 home kit that features on pitch may subsequently feature a front-of-shirt partner.” More

      Manchester City executive who stole £100,000 from club to pay for gifts and her wedding only has to pay back £2,500

      by

      A FORMER Manchester City executive who stole more than £104,000 from the club to pay for her wedding only has to pay back £2,550.Fiona Barclay, 34, worked as a business development manager within the Premier League champions’ hospitality department, earning up to £30,000 a year.
      Football exec Fiona Barclay was jailed following a trial at Manchester crown courtCredit: MEN Media
      The mum-of-one was jailed in November last year for fraud after swindling huge sums from Manchester City to fund her big day and buy lavish gifts for her husband and family.
      Yet she has now been ordered to pay back just £2,500 at a Proceeds of Crime Act hearing.
      She was told the news when appearing via video-link from her native Falkirk in Scotland.
      The hearing began with Barclay being asked whether she was alone, before telling the judge she had her seven-week-old baby beside her.

      Judge Timothy Smith ruled: “In light of everything uploaded, the benefit figure is £104,934.16, arising out of general criminal conduct. The available amount is £2,550.
      “This must be paid back by October 6.”
      When she was jailed, Manchester crown court heard how Barclay was first rumbled in March last year after accountants flagged a suspicious £25,000 refund.
      When questioned by bosses she claimed she’d transferred £15,000 of the sum into her own bank account “in error”.
      Most read in Football
      But following an investigation, the club discovered Barclay had been stealing from them since June 2019 – more than £104,000 overall.
      She pleaded guilty to an offence of fraud by abuse of position and was sacked by the Etihad Stadium side in March 2021.
      Her barrister Patrick Buckley described Barclay as “utterly disgusted with herself”, adding: “There is nothing in terms of reason or logical reason why she did what she did.”
      She spent less than half of her 18-month sentence in prison, with the rest to be served on licence.
      The latest court hearing was told she had found a new job with a travel firm and informed them about her conviction, while also trying in vain to arrange with City for repayment of the money owed.
      When jailing her for 18 months, Manchester crown court recorder Ciaran Rankin had said: “This is a tragedy – you have thrown so much away because of your dishonesty and, I’m afraid, pure greed.”
      On the pitch, City won an historic treble this past season – claiming the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League trophies.

      According to the Manchester Evening News, United chiefs are set to demand £50million for Maguire.
      This would represent a huge loss on the £80m they forked out for him from Leicester in 2019.
      But the sizeable fee is still set to put off potential suitors.

      Maguire was linked with Tottenham earlier in the summer.
      But the North Londoners are believed to be focusing on moves for Edmond Tapsoba or Micky van de Ven.
      They have also been linked with a swoop to bring back former loanee Clement Lenglet.

      He has largely remained in Gareth Southgate’s England side during the last 12 months, despite his lack of club action.
      But the Three Lions boss warned Maguire in May that the situation could become untenable.

      He said: “It’s not a situation that can continue forever. It’s like Kalvin Phillips, they are important players for us.”
      Southgate, 52, then added: “Of course the longer that situation goes on the more concerning it is and we’ve got in Marc Guehi, Lewis Dunk, Tyrone Mings . . . players who are playing well without the same experiences of club European football or international football.
      “But we’ve got to keep searching for competition in that area of the pitch.”
      At club level, Bruno Fernandes is set to take Maguire’s armband on a permanent basis.
      The Portuguese ace regularly wore it in Maguire’s absences last season.
