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...

Manchester United Transfer News: Jules Kounde linked with a January move

Sevilla defender Jules Kounde was heavily linked with a move to Chelsea during the summer transfer window but the Spanish outfit refused to sell the player in the end. According to AS, Manchester United could now make a move for the talented young Frenchman. Kounde is undoubtedly one of the most talented young defenders around Europe right now and the 22-year-old could prove to be a sensational addition for the Red Devils. Manchester United already signed her Raphael Varane earlier on this season to improve their back four and the arrival of Kounde will improve them further. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer needs to find upgrades on the likes of Eric Bailly and Victor Lindelof. Furthermore, Harry Maguire has not been at his best this season either. Kounde would be an upgrade on all three players. ...

Newcastle United Transfers: Three players Eddie Howe must sign in January

Manchester United appointed Eddie Howe as their manager last week and the 43-year-old will be expected to turn things around at St James’ Park over the next few weeks.  The Magpies are currently in the relegation zone and they will need to improve massively in order to stay in the Premier League next season.  Howe did an impressive job with Bournemouth in the Premier League but he will need the backing of the owners in the transfer market in order to transform the side. Newcastle are in desperate need of reinforcements right now.   The squad is lacking in depth and quality especially in the defence and midfield. Howe must look to bring in a top-class centre back when the transfer window re-opens and a goalscoring midfielder should be a top priority as well.  Here a...

Italian giants eyeing a move for Manchester United star

Juventus are interested to sign Anthony Martial who is currently on the books of Manchester United, according to reports.  The 25-year-old arrived at United in the summer of 2015 from AS Monaco in a deal worth around £36 million.  Since his arrival at Old Trafford, he has clocked up 265 appearances across all competitions, scoring 79 goals and creating 50 assists in the process (stats from Transfermarkt).  According to Calciomercato, the Italian giants are keen to sign a new striker in the January transfer window.  It is said that their primary target is Fiorentina’s Dusan Vlahovic who has been earning rave reviews for his performances in Serie A.   However, the Old Lady have also identified other targets in case they fail to secure a deal for the Serbian, inc...

Arsene Wenger reveals he was offered the Manchester United job

Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has now revealed that he was offered the chance to manage Manchester United. Wenger left Arsenal in 2018 having spent 22 years in charge of the Gunners. However, the French manager believes that he should have left the London club earlier than he did and staying on was a mistake that he regrets. Wenger admitted that he was emotionally invested and therefore he turned down several opportunities to manage other top teams. Apparently, Wenger was offered the French national team job along with prestigious managerial roles at Real Madrid, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United. Wenger has also reflected on the internal tensions inside the Arsenal board from 2007 and how the Gunners never really managed to return to the top of English football ev...

Brendan Rodgers has agreed to become Manchester United manager

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s position at Manchester United look very uncertain at the moment.  Despite heavy investments in the summer transfer window, the Norwegian boss has failed to revive the fortunes of the club.  The Red Devils are currently sixth in the Premier League table, having lost four matches so far.  One of their most humiliating defeats came last month when Liverpool stunned them by claiming a 5-0 victory.  However, United’s performance against Manchester City on Saturday was also highly disappointing as Pep Guardiola’s side completely dominated them to earn an easy 2-0 win.  Solskjaer is under huge pressure following this defeat and his position at Old Trafford look very precarious now.  According to CaughtOffside, Brendan Rodgers has verbally agree...

Ralf Rangnick interested to become Manchester United manager

Pressure is back on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after Manchester United’s 2-0 loss against Manchester City on Saturday.  The Old Trafford match looked completely one-sided as Eric Bailly conceded an own goal before Bernardo Silva added another to make it a comfortable victory for City.  The 48-year-old’s position at Old Trafford has been uncertain since their 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Liverpool last month.  The Norwegian boss led his side to a 3-0 victory over Tottenham last weekend before being held to a 2-2 draw by Atalanta in the Champions League.  Now Solskjaer is under intense scrutiny again after Saturday’s humiliating home defeat against Pep Guardiola’s side.  The Red Devils have now been dropped to fifth in the Premier League table and are currently nine point...
