      by

      Sheikh Jassim is eyeing a marquee signing to show his intention of restoring the Red Devils at the top of the Premier League as well as Europe.
      And the Qatari billionaire is planning to start with Neymar, who could be on his way out of PSG due to a raft of injuries, his mammoth salary and club’s decision to change direction.
      A move for the Brazil international does not necessarily rule out a bid for long-time target Kane.
      The England captain is still thought to be at the top of United’s transfer list this summer.

      If the two world class forwards arrive at Old Trafford then manager Erik ten Hag would have a star-studded line-up at his disposal.
      Neymar could cover the right wing and Kane would spearhead the attack with star man Marcus Rashford moving to his natural position down the left.
      Ten Hag’s 4-3-3 formation would see David de Gea starting in goal with Diogo Dalot at right-back and Luke Shaw on the other side, while Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane would team up at centre-back.
      The Dutch tactician would have a star trio in attack but also a stunning partnership in midfield with Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes and Christian Eriksen linking up.

      Neymar and Kane could be joined by more summer transfers at Manchester United

      It is fair to assume that Sheikh Jassim would invest heavily on his first year at United if he took over.
      Therefore there could still be more signings, such as Brentford’s David Raya and Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong.
      Raya could succeed De Gea in goal as the legendary goalkeeper’s contract runs out in June and an extension depends on the Spain international accepting a lower salary.
      Frimpong could take Dalot’s place at right-back as the Portugal international has yet to agree on a new deal with his contract running out next year.
      And of course Sheikh Jassim could still go for Borussia Dortmund superstar Jude Bellingham, who would form a devastating midfield partnership with Casemiro and Fernandes. More

      And at half time of the game, when the Old Trafford club were leading by two, the visiting supporters were heard chanting: “Harry Kane, we’ll see you in June.”
      Erik ten Hag is desperate to bring in a new No9 this summer to spearhead his attack next term.
      As well as Napoli’s Victor Osimhen, United have also long-been linked with a swoop for Spurs star Kane.
      When asked about the songs from the away end last night, the star said: “I heard what they were saying but I’m just focussed on this team and trying to finish strongly.”

      The comeback stopped the rot at Spurs after last weekend’s 6-1 thrashing at Newcastle – a game which led the squad to refund supporters who had the trip to the North East.
      Following that debacle, which led to interim boss Cristian Stellini being replaced by Ryan Mason for the rest of the campaign, the club’s chairman met with the players.
      Kane explained: “The chairman asked for a meeting. Obviously I won’t go into what was said but I think it was important [for him] to understand where the players’ heads were at that moment.
      “Obviously coming off the back of that result. And it wasn’t just that result. It had been building up since the international break when we conceded the two goals against Southampton.

      “It was an honest conversation of where everyone is at and what we need to try to do to give us the best possible chance to finish the season with something.
      “We’re still fighting for fourth place but if it’s not fourth we’ll try to finish fifth or sixth, as high up as we can.

      “In this league, it’s so competitive, you can easily end up 8th or 9th if you’re not careful. That’s what it was – to give us the best chance. And I’m glad we reacted like that today.”
      Next up is a trip to Anfield to face Liverpool on Sunday, and Kane has called on his team-mates to show the same battling spirit they showed against United in order to bring home the points.
      When asked if they can win on Merseyside, he said: “I think so. We spoke about these two games this week, just getting results: finding a way to win, finding a way to come away with something. Liverpool’s going to be the same.
      “Anfield is a very tough place to go. They’re in a similar position of fighting for the spots we’re fighting for so there’s a lot riding on it.
      “It’s down to us to recover and show the character we did in the second half and be brave away at Anfield.” More

      The Red Devils were two up in North London thanks to goals from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford at half time.
      But Spurs fought back to earn a point against United thanks to strikes from Pedro Porro and Heung-min Son.
      United had a great chance to go 3-1 up when Bruno Fernandes brilliantly nutmegged Tottenham defender Clement Lenglet inside the area but then rifled his strike back off the bar.
      And it was while discussing this piece of magic from the Portuguese ace that the legendary United defender slipped up trying to say the Spurs’ star’s name.

      The tongue-tied ex-England ace responded: “Ling… Ling… Ok sorry, pronunciations.”

      Maguire is sidelined with injury and instead, Luke Shaw has shifted over to centre-back.
      And covering at left-back is Diogo Dalot, despite regularly playing on the right.
      Shaw partners Victor Lindelof with Raphael Varane also out with an ankle injury that threatens to rule him out for the rest of the season.
      And Lisandro Martinez has already been ruled out for the remainder of the campaign following a broken metatarsal bone in his foot.

      It is not the first time Shaw has moved to a central position this season, having played there numerous times.
      Erik ten Hag told BT Sport Maguire was left out because of a “training injury”.
      United are five points above fifth-placed Aston Villa – with three games in hand.
      And they also sit six points ahead of hosts Spurs, who are without a win in three following consecutive defeats.

      “But we have to think about the game. We have to show we are very hungry, play on the front foot and show that we are determined.”
      United went on to blow a two goal lead after Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford made it 2-0 before half time.
      But Pedro Porro and Son Heung-min helped Spurs fightback to earn a point.

      The 29-year-old is thought to be a target for Manchester United.
      But Redknapp has suggested a controversial switch to Tottenham’s bitter rivals Chelsea could suit Kane instead.
      Mauricio Pochettino, who previously coached Kane at Spurs, is on the verge of joining the Blues as manager.
      When asked about Kane’s future, Redknapp told the Beyond The Pitch podcast: “It will be interesting if Pochettino goes to Chelsea.

      “That wouldn’t go down very well with the Tottenham fans, that’s for sure. But you never know if Pochettino’s there.
      “I’m sure Harry got on well with him [at Spurs].
      “And it’s a great move for him. I think he’s [Harry Kane] building a new house in that area.
      “He’s a family man and he’d be happier not moving to the north of England or wherever he’d have to go.”

      Redknapp went on to say he can’t see Kane leaving the Premier League.
      The England captain is on 207 Prem strikes – just 53 behind Alan Shearer’s all-time record.
      And Redknapp reckons Kane could even end up penning a new deal and staying at Spurs, where has has been since the age of 11.
      Redknapp concluded: “I’ve personally got a feeling he’ll stay and sign a new contract. I may be wrong but I think he could stay at Tottenham.”
      That is the same view as Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher, who doesn’t believe Spurs chairman Daniel Levy will accept a bid for Kane this summer.
      The Tottenham chief previously rebuffed Manchester City’s approach for Kane in the summer of 2021. More

      Julian Nagelsmann ‘at top of five-man shortlist to become next Tottenham manager but wages demands causing huge problem’

      by

      JULIAN NAGELSMANN is Tottenham’s leading candidate to become their next manager, according to reports.But Spurs face a huge roadblock in their pursuit of the ex-Bayern Munich man as he is proving an expensive option.

      Nagelsmann, 35, who has reportedly ruled himself out of the Chelsea vacancy, was sacked by the German champions last month – although his contract has not been terminated.
      It means he is essentially on gardening leave and is still receiving his £10.6million-a-year salary from the Bundesliga giants.
      Joining from RB Leipzig in 2021, he still has three years left on his contract with Bayern.
      So Tottenham’s acquisition of Nagelsmann would have to involve them paying Bayern compensation in order for his existing contract to be terminated.

      According to The Telegraph, there is a “limit” to the amount of compensation Spurs are prepared to pay Bayern.
      And if he is deemed too pricey, they could look to alternatives on their four-man shortlist.
      Celtic’s Ange Postecoglu, ex-Barcelona boss Luis Enrique, Brighton’s Roberto De Zerbi and Feyenoord’s Arne Slot have all been linked.
      But one of them is now understood to have been taken off as Spurs whittle their shortlist down to just four candidates including Nagelsmann.

      Spurs’ managerial search comes amid turmoil at the club.
      A 6-1 defeat to Newcastle on Sunday ended interim head coach Cristian Stellini’s time in charge.
      He had been in the hot seat for just four games after assuming the role following the sacking of Antonio Conte.
      Now Ryan Mason has returned to the position until the end of the season – a role he first took back in 2021 after Jose Mourinho was dismissed.
      Tottenham sit seventh in the Premier League table as they prepare to host Manchester United on Thursday evening. More
