    This provided some laughter in the conference room.
    Ten Hag was then asked what he wants to see from Ronaldo, to which he snappily answered: “I talk first with Ronaldo before I talk with you.”
    The new United gaffer however REFUSED to confirm Harry Maguire would be his captain next season.
    The question was then put to Ten Hag, where he failed to give a definitive answer on whether a new captain will be appointed.

    He said of Maguire: “I have to repeat, next season is a different season but I think he did a great job.
    “He is a great player, he achieved a lot, also the contribution to Manchester United.
    “So I’m looking forward to working with him.”
    Outgoing boss Ralf Rangnick has recently suggested the players should vote for a new captain.
    It came after a series of shaky performances from Maguire that saw him lose his place in the team.
    Ronaldo has enjoyed a fine season back at United, which can’t be said for many of his under-performing team-mates.
    The 37-year-old scored 24 goals in 31 games in all competitions – yet there were still rumours around whether he would be at Old Trafford next season.
    But Ten Hag has confirmed CR7 is very much in his thinking as he attempts to restore the club to former glories.
    Ronaldo missed United’s last game of the season against Crystal Palace with an injury.
    His absence was clearly felt, with Ralf Rangick ending his spell as manager on a 1-0 defeat.
    And former Red Devil Wilfried Zaha scoring the matchwinner will have been an even bitterer pill to to swallow.
    Ronaldo rejoined United from Juventus last summer – inking a two-year deal for his second stint at Old Trafford.

    Tavernier is the younger brother of Rangers captain James Tavernier, who was top-scorer in this season’s Europa League with seven goals, despite being a right-back.
    Boro boss Chris Wilder is looking to rebuild his squad over the summer after they missed out on the play-offs.
    He will have money to spend from chairman Steve Gibson, but Tavernier is one of the stars he ideally wants to keep hold of.

    Bayern have confirmed that Lewandowski wants to leave the clubCredit: EPA
    He has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona, with his representative Pini Zahavi confirming that the player would love to complete the transfer.
    However, the Bayern board still have Lewandowski under contract until the end of the 2022/23 season and remain reluctant to offload him now.
    But Zahavi has responded angrily to the idea of the Bundesliga side trying to keep their talismanic No9 for another 12 months.
    Speaking about the current situation, he told AS: “For Lewandowski, Bayern is history.

    PSG ‘put Neymar up for sale’ after Mbappe’s new deal, Dembele UPDATE, Newcastle REVIVE Ekitike deal – latest

    PSG will put Neymar up for sale after Kylian Mbappe’s new deal, according to reports.Le Parisien say the star forward will be on the market following “direct orders” from Qatar.
    Mbappe looked on course to sign for Real Madrid as a free agent this summer.
    But the France star has decided to stay put at the Ligue 1 champs and has signed a three-year contract at the Parc des Princes worth a whopping £1.6million-per-week AFTER tax – and £500m overall including a £250m signing-on bonus fee.
    Meanwhile, Barcelona legend and head coach Xavi Hernandez has admitted that Ousmane Demebele ‘could’ be playing his last game for the club against Villarreal.
    And Newcastle are ready to revive their interest in young Reims starlet Hugo Ekitike as they look to snatch the forward from under Borussia Dortmund’s noses.

    Neymar for sale
    PSG will put Neymar up for sale after Kylian Mbappe’s new deal.
    That is according to Le Parisien, who say the star forward will be on the market following “direct orders” from Qatar.
    PSG are now expecting offers for the Brazil international, whose contract expires in 2025, ahead of the summer transfer window.
    However, a potential sale won’t come easy for the French champions due to the 30-year-old’s sky high salary.
    Previous reports suggested that Neymar has been on a whopping £490,000 per week, which is the club’s second-highest salary behind Lionel Messi.

    Romantic Raphinha
    Raphinha rushed to hug his fiancee Taia Rodrigues after he helped Leeds United complete a great escape.
    The Brazilian was on target as his team became the first side since Wigan in 2011 to survive after starting the final day in the bottom three.

    His penalty put Leeds ahead against Brentford in West London as the drama began to unfold.
    The Bees were then reduced to 10 men when Kristoffer Ajer had to go off as the hosts had already used their three substitutions.
    But Sergi Canos looped in an equaliser to leave Leeds sweating on their safety before he was sent off for a second bookable offence.
    Jack Harrison made sure Leeds were safe – scoring a 94th minute winner – as Burnley crashed to a 2-1 defeat to Newcastle.
    Cigar moment
    Zlatan Ibrahimovic was in party mood – and had time for a cigar after winning the Serie A title with AC Milan.
    The Sweden legend was snapped on the pitch celebrating in style.

    Zlatan managed eight goals in 26 games for the Italian giants this season.
    He previously won the league with the Rossoneri in 2011.
    Olsen attacked
    Man City have apologised after Aston Villa goalkeeper Robin Olsen was attacked by fans after they invaded the pitch.
    City supporters poured onto the Etihad turf after being crowned Premier League champions following a dramatic 3-2 win over Aston Villa.
    Shocking footage has emerged of Aston Villa goalkeeper Robin Olsen being assaulted numerous times whilst leaving the Etihad pitch. pic.twitter.com/yG0XIOAacs— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) May 22, 2022

    Both sets of players were quickly surrounded with Olsen revealing he felt something hit the back of his head as he walked off.
    The Villa boss said: “We’re going to see how he is now, but I think you should ask Pep and Man City those questions.”
    City issued an apology in a statement which reads: “Manchester City would like to sincerely apologise to Aston Villa goalkeeper Robin Olsen, who was assaulted after the final whistle at today’s match when fans entered the pitch.
    “The Club has launched an immediate investigation and once identified, the individual responsible will be issued with an indefinite stadium ban.”
    Real deal
    Real Madrid have reportedly opened talks with Monaco star Aurelien Tchouameni in a blow to a string of Premier League sides.
    Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea are among the teams who had been targeting the highly-rated midfielder.
    Madrid will be hunting for high-profile summer signings after being snubbed by Kylian Mbappe on Saturday.
    And journalist Santi Aouna reports that the Spanish club has been in contact and ready to make an offer.
    AC Milan are Serie A champions
    Olivier Giroud blasted AC Milan to their first Serie A title for 11 years as they turned the tables on fierce rivals Inter.
    Ex-Chelsea and Arsenal hitman Giroud struck twice before Franck Kessie rounded off a first-half blitz at mid-table Sassuolo that sealed Milan’s final-day glory.
    Inter’s 3-0 win at home to Sampdoria failed to stop Milan reversing the top-two positions of the previous season.
    And it means the neighbours are LEVEL with 19 top-flight crowns each.
    Golden Boot
    The 2022 Premier League Golden Boot has been shared by Son Heung-min and Mohamed Salah.
    The Tottenham and Liverpool stars BOTH hit the target on the final day of the season to finish it with 23 goals each.
    Son went into his team’s clash at Norwich in second place behind the Reds hitman.
    But he produced two goals in Spurs’ 5-0 win at Norwich.
    However, his lead at the top of the charts only lasted a couple of minutes.
    Salah soon put Liverpool ahead against Wolves in his team’s 3-1 victory as they narrowly missed out on the title to Manchester City.
    Premier League 2021-22
    This is where we finished, and who did what in terms of European qualification.
    Title: Manchester City
    UCL: Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs
    UEL: Arsenal, Manchester United
    UECL: West Ham
    Relegation: Burnley, Watford, Norwich
    Leeds safe
    At the other end of the table, Leeds have survived after winning at Brentford.
    Burnley couldn’t find a late equaliser at Turf Moor – losing to Newcastle 2-1 in the end.
    Sacking Bielsa now looks justified.
    But, what will happen next season?
    All over
    The full-time whistle goes at the Etihad.
    Man City are champions, having staged an incredible comeback from two goals down to win 3-2.
    It’s completely academic that Liverpool have won 3-1 against Wolves.
    What a final day!
    Remarkable!
    Man City have done the unthinkable.
    3-2 now at the Etihad, Gundogan has absolutely swung the game and has his second.
    Scenes of tears in the stands at Anfield.
    On the other hand, it’s joy at the Etihad.
    It’s 2-2
    City are level at the Etihad!
    Amazing scenes – as Rodri side foots home from the edge of the area.
    There’s eight minutes left in Manchester.
    A win will mean they are champions regardless of what goes down at Anfield.
    City are back in it
    Gundogan has headed City back in the game, and Klopp looks nervous at Anfield.
    It’s 1-2 at the Etihad, so Liverpool know that a win will still mean they are champions.
    Who knows where this is going?
    Coutinho!
    Man City are 2-0 down and it’s the former Liverpool man Coutinho with the goal.
    Liverpool have roughly 20 minutes to get a winner that’ll lift them the Premier League title.
    Can the Reds do it?
    The quadruple is on.
    Massive goal for Leeds

    City blow
    Matty Cash has sent shockwaves through the Etihad!
    Villa lead against Man City and Anfield erupts.
    Can the Reds now find a second goal against Wolves to really amp up the pressure on Guardiola’s men?
    Wow… just wow.
    1-1 at Anfield
    The Reds have equalised, and it’s Sadio Mane!
    That’ll settle Jurgen Klopp and his side’s nerves – with 24 minutes played.
    With no score at the Etihad yet, there’s life in the title race yet.
    Can the Reds get another?
    Wow
    Leeds thought they’d gone ahead – only for a VAR call to disallow Joe Gelhardt’s goal.
    But, in good news, at the same time that strike was cancelled out Newcastle have taken the lead at Burnley!
    Astonishing – it’s Callum Wilson with the penalty after 20 minutes – following a daft handball by Nathan Collins.
    Remember, all Leeds have to do is better Burnley’s result.
    Disaster at Anfield
    Wolves have put a spanner in the works in the title race!
    Just three minutes in and Pedro Neto has shocked the hosts – and there are cheers around Etihad.
    Still, long, long, long way to go.
    But that wasn’t on the cards!
    Title hopefuls receive heroes’ welcome

    LaLiga will complain to Uefa
    LaLiga have blasted Kylia Mbappe’s stunning U-turn as “scandalous” and will file a complaint to Uefa about Paris Saint-Germain “attacking the stability of football”, writes Joshua Jones.
    The bitter Spanish top flight also launched a stinging attack on PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
    Superstar forward Mbappe, 23, looked on course to sign for Real Madrid as a free agent this summer.
    But Mbappe has decided to stay put at PSG and has signed a three-year contract at the Parc des Princes worth a whopping £500m contract including a £250m signing-on bonus fee.
    LaLiga said: “This type of agreement attacks the economic stability of European football, putting at risk hundreds of thousands of jobs and the integrity of the sport.
    “It is scandalous that a club like PSG, which last season reported losses of more than 220 million euros can close such an agreement, while those clubs that could afford the hiring of the player without seeing their wage bill compromised, are left without being able to sign him.
    “LaLiga will file a complaint against PSG before Uefa, the French administrative and fiscal authorities and European Union authorities to continue to defend the economic ecosystem of European football and its sustainability.”
    Guardiola motivates the City fans
    Pep Guardiola tells City fans to be loud today in their quest for the Premier League title.
    Boss Guardiola pumped up the crowd in his manager’s column in the programme.
    He said: “I want to feel you alive, non-stop.
    “We want loud, loud and loud. Right?”

    Man Utd transfer news: Crystal Palace loss REACTION, Jonathan David targeted, Pogba to sign for Juventus – updates

    MANCHESTER UNITED’S painful season concluded in yet more miserable fashion when they lost 1-0 to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.Though new boss Erik ten Hag was in attendance to watch the game at Selhurst Park as he begins his preparations for next season.
    Paul Pogba is set to leave the club after seven years on a free, with reports the Frenchman has agreed a deal with Juventus.
    United have been linked with a move for Jurrien Timber from Ajax and Jonathan David from Lille as they look to get their summer transfer business started.

    Becks joins Hollywood royalty
    Man Utd legend David Beckham joined Ryan Reynolds, Will Ferrell and Blake Lively to cheer on Wrexham in the FA Trophy final.
    However, their presence couldn’t stop the Welsh side fall to a 1-0 defeat to Bromley.
    Wrexham now switch their attentions to the National League playoffs.
    Will they get promoted?

    Bailly row
    According to reports, Man Utd recalled Eric Bailly from Ivory Coast when staff discovered he was in a different location that was agreed upon.
    Bailly returned home late from the African Cup of Nations, and injured too.
    The Athletic reporter Laurie Whitwell says Red Devils boss Ralf Rangnick tore into him when he returned in front of the whole squad.
    Russian intelligence
    Ralf Rangnick received intelligence from Russia during his stint as Manchester United interim manager, reports suggest.
    According to The Athletic, Rangnick was in constant contact with former Lokomotiv Moscow assistant Lars Kornetka during his six-month stint at Old Trafford.
    The German tactician wanted to bring Kornetka with him to Manchester but he stayed in Russia due to commitments with Lokomotiv.
    The two men have been working together for more than a decade at Hoffenheim, Schalke and RB Leipzig.
    Rangnick rates his fellow German’s insight so highly that he has been tapping into him since the day he took over the Red Devils’ hotseat.
    Kornetka would talk to the 63-year-old’s assistant Ewan Sharp on match days and the now former United caretaker boss always checked his phone at half-time.
    Real deal
    Real Madrid have reportedly opened talks with Monaco star Aurelien Tchouameni in a blow to a string of Premier League sides.
    Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea are among the teams who had been targeting the highly-rated midfielder.
    Madrid will be hunting for high-profile summer signings after being snubbed by Kylian Mbappe on Saturday.
    And journalist Santi Aouna reports that the Spanish club has been in contact and ready to make an offer.
    Ronaldo stat
    Cristiano Ronaldo was MIA today for Man Utd in their defeat at Crystal Palace.
    The Red Devils crashed to a 1-0 loss at Selhurst Park.
    Incredibly, that’s 10 games he has missed this season – and even more astonishing is the fact United haven’t won any of those matches without him.
    Not so much a “problem” then.
    De Gea to stay
    David De Gea has revealed his plans to stay at Old Trafford for next season.
    “I want to forget this season and be 100% ready for next season. It has been horrible,” he told BBC Sport.
    “Ones who want to stay, stay at the club. Ones that don’t want to stay go out. You don’t have to stay”.
    Ten Hag will have his own ideas.
    Premier League 2021-22
    This is where we finished, and who did what in terms of European qualification.
    Title: Manchester City
    UCL: Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs
    UEL: Arsenal, Manchester United
    UECL: West Ham
    Relegation: Burnley, Watford, Norwich
    Europa League for United
    So, it’s Europa League football for Man Utd next season.
    The Red Devils lost away to Palace, but with West Ham slipping to a 3-1 defeat at Brighton it didn’t matter.
    They finished sixth in the table, and will want a better season next campaign.
    Ten Hag, who was in attendance, has a hell of a job on his hands.
    Brighton level
    United are back up to sixth and a Europa League spot – thanks to a Brighton leveller.
    It’s Veltman with the goal, that slipped through the grasp of Fabianski in the Hammers goal.
    Ten Hag could get his hands on his first silverware there then.
    And I’m sure United fans will get added satisfaction in seeing Man City fans currently suffering – as they trail at home to Villa.
    As things stand
    Champions -Man City
    Champions League – Liverpool – Chelsea – Tottenham
    Europa League – Arsenal- West Ham
    Relegated – Burnley
    United look like they’re headed to the Conference League.
    Zaha haunts United
    It’s the former United man who gives Palace the lead at Selhurst Park.
    Wilfried Zaha, who couldn’t get a look in at Old Trafford but is so often Palace’s talisman, with the goal.
    Patrick Vieira always loved coming up against Man Utd.
    Will he win against them as a boss too?
    Spot ten Hag
    Erik ten Hag is in attendance at Selhurst Park!The incoming Man Utd boss is watching his new players in action against Crystal Palace alongside assistant Mitchell van der Gaag.
    He doesn’t seem to be too happy either with what he’s seen so far.
    Lots of work to do, he surely ponders.

    Cavani and Mejbri start for Manchester United
    Ralf Rangnick has named Cavani in his last game as Manchester United manager against Crystal Palace. The Red Devils are without Cristiano Ronaldo this afternoon, who is unavailable with a hip injury.
    In addition, the Austrian has called up teenager, Hannibal Mejbri. Harry Maguire also returns to the back four.

    Man Utd starting XI for today
    Here is the team showing what they have in front of new gaffer Erik ten Hag.
    19-year-old Hannibal Mejbri starts.

    Will the kids play? – Line up revealed in two minutes
    Man Utd are set to give the kids a chance against Crystal Palace as Charlie Savage among youngsters spotted travelling to London.
    Savage, 19, could make his Premier League debut after being named in the travelling squad for their final game of the season, writes Jake Lambourne.
    The Red Devils face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday in a game that will decide what European competition they will be playing next term.
    Failure to beat the Eagles could see United drop down into seventh and into the Uefa Conference League.
    United must claim the three points in South London or hope West Ham fail to beat Brighton at the Amex Stadium to secure a place in the Europa League.
    And United could decide to give their youngsters a chance, with Charlie Savage, Shola Shoretire and Alvaro Fernandez all named in their squad.
    The trio were snapped before making their way down to the capital, where they will be looking to impress incoming manager Erik ten Hag should they be given any game time.
    United ‘need a reset’, says Mata
    Mata went on to say United need a “reset” after a tough few seasons, demanding players “meet the standards” required to turn out for the club.
    He said: “Being at Man Utd, this club needs first-class individuals for each department.
    “This club should be top of the class in every department, on pitch or off. That is the only way I see this club competing for the biggest trophies.
    “That’s what I hope for in the near future, otherwise you cannot compete with clubs who are doing very good things with a certain identity and professionalism in the way they make decisions.

    “When you think about Man Utd you think about the best level possible, as far as I understood football growing up.
    “I don’t understand this club without having first-class individuals for each department.”
    Mata continued: “We have made many mistakes… we could have also dealt better with certain situations that were happening in the club, managers changing, negative things.
    “Certain standards were not met. Whether that’s attitude, level of training, off the pitch, which doesn’t include players, we haven’t been good enough.
    “We need a reset in the culture of the club. That’s how I feel.
    Mata could stay in Manchester
    Juan Mata has hinted he could sensationally STAY at Manchester United, writes Dave Fraser.
    The long-serving Spanish playmaker, 34, was widely expected to quit Old Trafford on a free transfer this summer with his contract expiring, despite rumours of retiring or going into coaching.
    But Mata has confirmed he will hold off making any decisions until he has spoken to Ten Hag – who will officially start work on Monday, following United’s final game of the season against Crystal Palace.
    Mata told The Athletic: “I will see when we speak how we feel, what his ideas are…
    “After that a decision will be made.”
    Rangnick admits Ronaldo compromise
    Ralf Rangnick also laments his asking of a 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo to be part of a high-pressing side.
    He continued: “I am not blaming Cristiano at all, he did great in games, but he is not a pressing monster.
    “Even when he was young, he wasn’t shouting, “The other team has the ball, where can we win balls?

    ‘It was the same with quite a few other players so we had to make compromises at one stage.
    “We never found the right balance between what do we need with the ball and without the ball.”
    Rangnick shoulders the blame
    Interim Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick blames himself for the club’s collapse this season, writes Chisanga Malata.
    The German was brought in to steady the ship following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s departure last November but failed to get the squad to completely buy into his philosophy.
    Rangnick’s failure to adapt his strategy to his squad’s strengths has left United in a final-day battle for the Europa League spot that comes with sixth place.
    And he shoulders the blame for the club losing their last five away matches on the bounce, saying: “We never came near to that aggressive, pro-active football I’d normally want to do.
    “It has to do with physicality if you want to play like that. I should have done better and developed this team in a more sustainable way.”
    Savage and co in the United squad today
    Man Utd are set to give the kids a chance against Crystal Palace as Charlie Savage among youngsters spotted travelling to London.
    Savage, 19, could make his Premier League debut after being named in the travelling squad for their final game of the season, writes Jake Lambourne.
    The Red Devils face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday in a game that will decide what European competition they will be playing next term.
    Failure to beat the Eagles could see United drop down into seventh and into the Uefa Conference League.

    The trio were snapped before making their way down to the capital, where they will be looking to impress incoming manager Erik ten Hag should they be given any game time.
    Luke Shaw could be missing on Sunday
    The Red Devils face the Eagles away at Selhurst Park in their final Premier League game of the season TODAY.
    Luke Shaw is a doubt to feature for Manchester United against Crystal Palace on Sunday following the birth of his second child.
    Congratulations Luke and Anouska!
    Ronaldo to miss Prem finale through injury
    Cristiano Ronaldo has withdrawn from Manchester United’s squad for today’s Prem finale at Crystal Palace with a hip injury.
    The Red Devils need victory to seal sixth place.
    But 24-goal top-scorer Ron, 37, is suddenly sidelined.
    Spurs ‘pave way for Utd on Johnstone’
    Manchester United could be in pole position for West Brom keeper Sam Johnstone as Tottenham reportedly eye Fraser Forster instead.
    Manchester United could be in pole position for West Brom keeper Sam Johnstone as Tottenham reportedly eye Fraser Forster instead.
    Red Devils’ second-choice stopper Dean Henderson could be loaned out, with Bournemouth and Fulham keen.
    And United have been linked with Johnstone long before Erik ten Hag was named as incoming manager.
    Red Devils’ second-choice stopper Dean Henderson could be loaned out, with Bournemouth and Fulham keen.
    Even Legends can’t salvage Utd pride
    United’s Legends were humbled just as much as the mediocre current squad have been this season as Mark Gonzalez hit a stunner in a 3-1 Charity match win for Liverpool’s oldies.
    The former Chile midfielder only spent one season at Anfield in 2006-07 – scoring two Premier League goals.

    But he notched a superb 30-yard free-kick past United sub keeper Kevin Pilkington and a stoppage-time clincher.
    A goalless first half was played in high spirits for good causes,including the Man Utd Foundation, with £1.3million raised as Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher captained the two teams and the likes of Patrice Evra, Jaap Stam and Andriy Voronin took part.
    But Liverpool came flying out of the blocks in the second 45.
    Replacement forward Luis Garcia’s cheeky stepover beat Raimond van der Gouw all ends up and Garcia rounded the keeper to roll in the opener.
    Dimitar Berbatov won a penalty three minutes later to coolly slot in for 1-1.
    But Dirk Kuyt hit the post for Liverpool before Gonzalez struck twice to give them victory.
    Cottagers want Matic talks
    EXCLUSIVE: Fulham want to talk veteran Nemanja Matic into staying in the Prem after he leaves Manchester United, writes ALAN NIXON.
    The Championship winners are keen to bring the ex-Chelsea midfielder back to London.
    Matic, 33, has played a key role at United lately and is still very capable at the top level.
    But he is choosing to move on rather than be part of Erik ten Hag’s revolution.
    Foreign interest in Matic is great but he could get a deal that works for him at Fulham and can slot back into life in London, after two great spells with the Blues.
    Matic revealed he would leave United last month in a lengthy statement on social media.

    PSG ‘put Neymar up for sale’ after Mbappe signs new contract but staggering wages could scupper transfer

    PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN will put Neymar up for sale after Kylian Mbappe’s new deal.That is according to Le Parisien, who say the star forward will be on the market following “direct orders” from Qatar.

    Paris Saint-Germain want to sell Neymar ahead of the summer transfer windowCredit: Getty
    PSG are now expecting offers for the Brazil international, whose contract expires in 2025, ahead of the summer transfer window.
    However, a potential sale won’t come easy for the French champions due to the 30-year-old’s sky high salary.
    Previous reports suggested that Neymar has been on a whopping £490,000 per week, which is the club’s second-highest salary behind Lionel Messi.
    The Brazilian’s record-breaking £198m move from Barcelona in 2017 has proved to be somewhat of a disappointment.

dominate Sunday Times Young Rich list with 34 footballers in top 100
    The ex-Santos star has amassed an astonishing total of 100 goals and 60 assists in 144 appearances across all competitions.
    But Neymar hasn’t been able to inspire PSG to the Champions League trophy, which has been the club’s top goal since their Qatari takeover in 2011.
