Manchester United willing to sell Jesse Lingard for £10m

Manchester United are willing to sell Jesse Lingard for £10 million in the January transfer window, according to reports.  The 28-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at West Ham after struggling for minutes at Old Trafford.  The England international was spectacular for the Hammers during that short spell. He clocked up 16 Premier League appearances at the London Stadium, scoring nine goals and creating five assists in the process (stats from Transfermarkt).  The East London outfit were so impressed with the winger’s performances that they wanted to make the move permanent.  However, United wanted £25m for the 28-year-old’s transfer, which the Hammers were not willing to pay.  Now as per The Sun, Manchester United are ready to sell the England int...

Brendan Rodgers emerges as the favourite to become Manchester United manager if Solskjaer is sacked

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is under huge pressure at Old Trafford.  Despite heavy investments in the summer transfer window, his side failed to make a good start to the 2021-22 season.  The Red Devils suffered a humiliating 5-0 defeat against Liverpool and also lost 2-0 to bitter rivals Manchester City last week.  Now according to a report from The Sun, a leading agent has been sounding out potential candidates to replace Solskjaer at United.  It is said that the Premier League giants have drawn up a four-man shortlist to take over if they fire the Norwegian boss from his position.  The list includes the names of Rodgers, Zinedine Zidane, Erik ten Hag and Antonio Conte.  Conte was reportedly keen on the United job but he didn’t want to wait fo...

Hakim Ziyech wants to leave Chelsea in January

Hakim Ziyech is seeking a move away from Chelsea this January transfer window, according to reports.   It is said that the Blues are also willing to let the Morocco international leave Stamford Bridge.  The 28-year-old joined the Londoners in 2020 from Ajax in a deal worth around €40 million. His stint at the Johan Cruyff Arena was highly impressive, where he even reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2019.  However, the attacking midfielder failed to make the same impact after he moved to the Premier League last year.  He contributed only four assists and six goals in 39 total appearances for the Pensioners last season, with the Moroccan also missing plenty of games due to injuries.  Now the 2021-22 campaign isn’t going very well either for the 2...
