Manchester United news: Experienced striker on the radar of Sevilla

Sevilla are reportedly interested in signing Edinson Cavani who is currently on the books of Manchester United.   The Spanish outfit wanted to bring in Anthony Martial and the 26-year-old also showed interest in making the move as he eyes regular playing time (as per 90MIN).  However, the Red Devils are not desperate to offload him and want any interested club to pay the large portion of his wages on loan and also insert an obligation to buy clause.  Sevilla are unwilling to meet such requirements for signing the forward.  And now according to Mundo Deportivo, Rojiblancos have identified another United player Edinson Cavani as a potential alternative.  Sevilla have approached the 34-year-old to add more firepower to increase their chances for the La Liga title...

Cristiano Ronaldo sends message on Instagram after Manchester United’s latest defeat

Cristiano Ronaldo made a stunning second debut at Manchester United as he scored two goals in his first match against Newcastle United at Old Trafford.  The 36-year-old was also on the scoresheet in United’s subsequent matches against Young Boys and West Ham.  However, now his run of scoring in three consecutive matches has come to an end as United suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa on Saturday.  Reacting to the loss, the Portuguese star took to social media and posted the following message to the Red Devils’ fans.  He wrote on Instagram: “This is only the beginning, but in a competition as strong as the Premier League, every point counts!

Aston Villa’s Kortney Hause stun Manchester United with late winner

Manchester United suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa at Old Trafford after Bruno Fernandes failed to convert his spot-kick in injury time.   The match looked to be heading for a draw after both teams failed to score a goal until the 88th minute.  That was the point when defender Kortney Hause broke the deadlock through a brilliant near-post header.  However, in a dramatic twist of events, the former Birmingham City player then gave away a penalty by handling Edinson Cavani’s header in extra time.  The Red Devils had a brilliant opportunity to salvage a point but Fernandes blazed woefully over the target to hand the visitors three points.   With this defeat, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have now slipped to fourth in the Premier League t...

Manchester United identify Alexander Isak as Erling Braut Haaland alternative

Manchester United have identified Alexander Isak as an alternative target to Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland this summer, The Star reports. The Red Devils recently committed Edinson Cavani to a new contract, but they are still searching for a quality young striker to add to their ranks. They have been heavily linked with Dortmund, but a deal appears unlikely with the Bundesliga outfit having no plans to sanction his sale. Haaland has a release clause worth £68 million in his contract, but that does not become active until the end of the 2021/22 campaign. It is now reported that the club have a ‘Plan B’, and could look to swoop for the services of Isak, who is currently contracted with Real Sociedad. Isak had another promising season with Sociedad last term, registering 17 goals an...

‘Pure class’, ‘Can’t get over’: Some Man United fans praise £6.3m star despite Fulham draw

A selection of Manchester United fans were delighted for Edinson Cavani, who scored a stunning long-range goal in the Premier League draw against Fulham. The Uruguayan has been in fine form since April and last night, he got the chance to play for the club with the supporters watching him for the first time. Cavani made the moment memorable for the fans with a remarkable 35-yard strike, which beat goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, who was off his line. The goal remains debatable with a potential offside in the lead-up, but some of the fans on Twitter were quick to praise the 34-year-old. Here are a few reactions. That goal by Cavani is a strong contender for Premier League’s ‘Goal of the Season’ pic.twitter.com/bIZoIwAJv1 — ᥅ (@TheFergusonWay) May 18, 2021 Edinson Cavani vs Ful...

Harry Kane tells Tottenham he wants to leave this summer

Harry Kane has reiterated his stance that he wants to leave Tottenham this summer. The 27-year-old has grown frustrated over the club’s inability to compete at the highest level, having seen his side fall out of contention to secure Champions League football for next season. Spurs have long been reluctant to entertain bids for their talisman but the England captain is hoping that they will soften their stance after his long service to the club. Daniel Levy will demand a huge fee for Kane – who prefers a move within the Premier League – as he is on a long-term deal until 2024. Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea are potentially viable destinations, although it is still unclear as to whether a move will materialise. All three of the aforementioned Premier League giants have signif...

Edinson Cavani offered £50K pay rise to stay at Manchester United

Manchester United plan to keep Edinson Cavani at Old Trafford for the 2021-22 season by offering the striker a wage increase of £50,000, according to reports. The Uruguayan has cemented himself as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s first-choice striker during the second half of the 2020-21 campaign, playing a pivotal goalscoring role both domestically and in Europe – most notably in the Europa League semi-final tie with AS Roma, against whom he scored four goals over two legs. United do not have the option to extend the 12-month deal Cavani signed last summer, and it has been generally assumed the 34-year-old would return to South America this summer. However, Cavani can choose to add another year to his current deal, and according to The Sun, United plan to give the 34-year-old extra incentive to rem...

Manchester United edging closer to Erling Haaland transfer decision

Manchester United are edging increasingly closer to a decision on Erling Haaland. Though they’d love to sign the Borussia Dortmund striker, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also have several other transfer targets in mind. And much will depend on Edinson Cavani, whose future will soon become clear. Manchester United wanted to sign Haaland in January 2020. And, though they ultimately missed out to Borussia Dortmund, they’ve retained a strong interest ever since. Haaland has been in sensational form for the Bundesliga giants this season, scoring 35 goals in the Bundesliga and Champions League combined. United, as a result, have put the 20-year-old on their shortlist of potential signings ahead of this summer’s transfer window. However, the Red Devils appear to be edging closer to a development when it c...

Boca Juniors are preparing for the arrival of Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani. Doble Amarilla reports Cavani informed the Red Devils hierarchy of his intention to leave for South America at the end of the season after the 3-1 win over Burnley on Sunday. Cavani has two-and-a-half months remaining on his contract and while there is an option to extend for another season, it would require both the player and the club to agree to activate this clause.
