      ‘He’d jump at it’ – Tyson Fury insider reveals why Gypsy King WILL come out of retirement for Anthony Joshua fight

He told Sky Sports: “Tyson’s retired before. It just so happens they were trying to make the Joshua fight. “They were trying to make it for 10 years and it looks like they’re still not going to make it now Tyson’s retired.”But I would take that retirement with a pinch of salt knowing Tyson. If he gets offered the right money, the right purse for the AJ fight, knowing Tyson as I do, I think he’d jump at it.”READ MORE IN BOXINGHatton – who helped corner Fury during his 2018 comeback – backed the Gypsy King to leave no regrets in his career. He said: “I think Tyson will kick himself if he’s sat on his sofa 10 years down the line and thinks to himself: ‘I wonder what would have happened if I’d have fought AJ?'”He’s in a position to do something about it now rather than be cursing himself for the rest of his life.”But if Fury does remain retired, Hatton would be a happy man.

And Hatton said: “His fights against Usyk were I think a lot closer than AJ’s fights with Usyk. “Daniel Dubois obviously got beat by Usyk and there was a bit of controversy in that one.”I think Usyk won both the fights against Tyson but I can see why other people thought Tyson might have won them. “Because they were that close.

      BRUNO FERNANDES has revealed the main reason he stayed at Manchester United after admitting he had an offer to leave.Club captain Fernandes, who netted a hat-trick in midweek against Real Sociedad in a 4-1 win, signed a contract extension with the Red Devils last summer that will keep him at Old Trafford until 2027.Bruno Fernandes has revealed the reason he stayed at Man Utd after rejecting an offer to leaveCredit: GettyFernandes revealed he ultimately believed the club could be successfulCredit: GettyFernandes has won the FA Cup and League Cup with the Red Devils so farCredit: RexThe midfielder recently revealed he had an offer on the table to leave if he wanted.But Fernandes said he chose to stay because he believes the club can be successful – and want him to be a major part of that success.He said: “I sat with the club because I had an offer to leave and we talked about the possibility of me leaving the club or staying. “They said what they wanted from me. I just asked if they saw me as part of the future of the club or not. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL”I spoke at the time with (Erik) Ten Hag also. He was very clear and the club were very clear with me, that they thought I would be a big part of this rebuild. “I heard what they had to tell me. I thought that we could be successful.”Fernandes’ recent heroics saw manager Ruben Amorim declare him a “perfect captain” and insist: “We need to help him win titles because he deserves this.”However, the 30-year-old dismissed the idea, saying he only deserved the same as what his team-mates get.Most read in FootballJOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUSHe said: “No, I deserve the same as my team-mates. I’m in the same boat as them. If I haven’t given everything to the club yet, or more to the club – it’s because I don’t deserve it and that’s it.”It doesn’t matter how much you do – how much you score, how much you assist – that doesn’t change anything. It’s about the team, it’s about the club to succeed. Paul Scholes says ‘it’s about time Manchester United caught up'”Obviously, I want to win trophies. I’m not stupid. I want to be in the biggest competitions, I want to fight for the big trophies. “That’s what I said to the club.

They have to decide. I just want to do everything I can to help the club succeed.”Fernandes was the only player to emerge with a glowing review from club chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe following a series of interviews on Monday, in which he labelled some of the squad “overpaid” and “not good enough”.Man Utd are desperately struggling in the Premier League this season, sitting in 14th place and 13 points off the top five – the likely Champions League spots for next season.The lack of European football and the revenue it provides next season could be a huge blow to Man Utd’s financial goals to balance the books – which are in a bad state after seven years of making a loss.Fernandes has netted 15 goals and added 13 assists so far this season, while only the injured Amad Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho have hit double figures for goal contributions so far this season.So far Fernandes has the FA Cup and League Cup to his trophy accolades in a Man Utd shirt.READ MORE SUN STORIESBut his performances will prove vital in whether Man Utd can pick up silverware in the Europa League, which is the last trophy the club can win this season.They face Lyon in the quarter-finals, but before that they take on Leicester in the Premier League tomorrow evening after the Carabao Cup final.Man Utd player ratingsCAPTAIN Fantastic rescued Manchester United once again – scoring a hat-trick as the Red Devils overcame an early scare to beat Real Sociedad and advance in the Europa League.He was the coolest man inside Old Trafford twice as he slotted home penalties either side of half-time to put his side in control against the Spaniards.Joshua Zirkzee was another who impressed as Manchester United secured a tie against Lyon in the quarter-finals.But it wasn’t all positive.Rasmus Hojlund drew a blank yet again.
