Another top Manchester United transfer target is dreaming of Real Madrid instead

Manchester United have become increasingly interested in River Plate playmaker Franco Mastantuono, who has become a key target for many Premier League clubs. But even though Real Madrid backed out of the race a few months ago, the Argentinian prospect still dreams of a move to the Santiago Bernabeu. According to a report from German Garcia Grova of TyC Sports in Argentina, Mastantuono is making it clear to all clubs interested in him that he dreams of joining Real Madrid. He is telling clubs that he is not desperate to leave River Plate yet and is willing to wait for Madrid. Mastantuono already rejected French giants Marseille, and Manchester United are reportedly struggling to meet River's valuation and 40 million euro release clause. Manchester United beat Real Madrid to a top pro...

Nico Williams wage demands should price himself out of Chelsea transfer list

Athletic Club left winger Nico Williams found himself on the radar of the biggest clubs in the Premier League, specifically London rivals Chelsea and Arsenal, after a quality 2023/24 LaLiga campaign. And then after winning the European Championships as a key player for Spain, his stock skyrocketed. Though Lamine Yamal recruited his friend hard to Barcelona, Williams decided to stay with Athletic Club and brother Iñaki after the Lions signed him to a lucrative contract extension. Although Athletic Club are in the Europa League semifinals and the top four of LaLiga, the transfer rumors surrounding Williams have not quelled, with the Premier League's elite still circling the 22-year-old star. Nico Williams wants a huge salary from any team interested According to a report from the Dai...

Marcus Rashford keeps making it harder for Manchester United to sell him

Marcus Rashford clearly doesn't have a future at Manchester United, and that reality had likely existed for multiple seasons before Ruben Amorim's arrival; it's just that the Portuguese manager has been the first to take formal steps to cutting ties with the perennial disappointment. There is a talented player buried somewhere within Rashford, but even at his latest loan spell with Aston Villa, we've only seen that quality in bits and pieces. For the most part, he's been about as bang average as he was at Old Trafford. With Rashford now out for the rest of the 2024/25 season with a hamstring injury, selling the England international will be more difficult for Manchester United, and Villa are pretty much off the table as a landing spot. Marcus Rashford doesn't want Aston Villa move ...

Manchester United have one key hurdle to signing Viktor Gyokeres

Manchester United will have more than a few needs to address in the summer 2025 transfer window, and if they truly embrace the long-term approach that Ruben Amorim is touting - and that they need - they will take the prudent approach instead of shoehorning signings. However, there is one need that Manchester United need to immediately address if they want to be successful enough in the Premier League to get to European football every year, and that is, simply put, scoring more goals. As many expected, the summer 2024 signing of all-around striker Joshua Zirkzee has not yielded much in the form of goal-scoring output. Manchester United do not have a single striker with even five goals, as their leading scorers are playmaker Bruno Fernandes with eight and winger Amad Diallo with six. ...

Selling Marcus Rashford just got even more difficult for Manchester United

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has played himself out of too many second chances at the club, and, this past winter window, the Red Devils finally came to the realization under new manager Ruben Amorim that he's never going to click at Old Trafford. Teams outside of England were unable to facilitate a loan move for Rashford due to his astronomic wages, but Manchester United were able to find a credible landing spot in European hopefuls Aston Villa. Although Villa sit seventh in the Premier League and Rashford has been decent in a rotational role with two goals and two assists with four starts, Aston Villa will finish the 2024/25 season lower than the 2023/24 campaign. Marcus Rashford is now injured So Rashford's long-term future remains uncertain, especially since he mak...

Chelsea giving up on another injury-prone transfer flop

Chelsea are headed for another action-packed summer transfer window as the pruning process continues at Stamford Bridge, with the club waving the white flag on several high-profile transfers since Todd Boehly's arrival. Overall, things have improved quite quickly under new manager Enzo Maresca, and, now, the name of the game will be signing a new striker, trimming the squad of the fat, and tweaking elsewhere. Already, Chelsea are prepared to part ways with attacker Christopher Nkunku, who seemed like a 100 percent slam dunk at the time of his signing from RB Leipzig but has gone on to be an unmitigated disaster at Chelsea, largely due to an inability stay healthy. Chelsea are shopping Wesley Fofana Center back Wesley Fofana has been the same story in defense, and, now, according to...

Manchester United get disappointing Andre Onana transfer news

Manchester United are going to be busy again this summer transfer window, because despite signing three of European football's most touted young talents in 2024 - Manuel Ugarte, Leny Yoro, and Joshua Zirkzee - along with veteran defenders Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui, the Red Devils are even worse than they started. Firing Erik ten Hag for Ruben Amorim hasn't yielded immediate results for a Manchester United side stuck in the bottom half of the Premier League, and while striker will, once again, be a priority for the club after Zirkzee's failure to help, it won't be the only need at Old Trafford. Andre Onana has been a liability this season See, Manchester United are keen on making a switch at goalkeeper, as Andre Onana has fallen further in the eyes of fans, with former goa...

Signing Victor Osimhen is even easier for Chelsea than you think

There is no question that Chelsea have improved considerably in the 2024/25 season under Enzo Maresca, and they are right at the cusp of returning to the Champions League if they can finish the campaign strong, currently sitting fifth neck-and-neck with Manchester City and Nottingham Forest in front and behind them. Chelsea actually have one of the better strikers in the Premier League, as Nicolas Jackson has become more consistent this season all-around. But he's still only scored 10 goals, showing that he can't quite carry the scoring load for a title hopeful on his own as a single striker. The Victor Osimhen transfer rumors have certainly not gone away, and after balking at last season's 130 million euro asking price, it would be alarming if Chelsea don't show significant interest...

The only way Arsenal lose Martin Zubimendi to Real Madrid

Real Sociedad defensive midfielder Martin Zubimendi has been one of LaLiga's finest players over the last couple of seasons, and after rebuffing several big clubs in order to stay with La Real, it looks like Arsenal have the inside track to finally sign the most coveted No. 6 on the transfer market. Defensive midfielders who control the game are a rare commodity in world football, and they generally go for major transfer fees. Real Madrid spent 80 million euros on Champions League winner Aurelien Tchouameni in 2022, while Arsenal spent a club record 100 million pounds on Declan Rice in 2023. Zubimendi will be cheaper than those two at 60 million euros, though, at 26 years old, he's also hitting the transfer market a few years older than Rice and Tchouameni were. ALSO READ: 3 summe...

Andre Onana is getting closer to leaving Manchester United

Manchester United have a host of transfer needs in summer 2025, because despite a heavy summer of investments in 2024, Ruben Amorim has walked into a situation he can't win without proper signings at key positions. The Red Devils remain without a true goal-scoring striker as neither Joshua Zirkzee nor Rasmus Hojlund are showing that they have the traits to reliably score 20 goals per season in the Premier League. Goalkeeper has also become a key need for Manchester United. The club appears to be unconvinced by Andre Onana, who, while being a talented goalkeeper, has become too prone to mistakes to trust in goal. Andre Onana could be headed to Saudi Arabia Manchester United are expected to part ways with Onana this summer and sign a young goalkeeper with more potential. Already, it ...
