Amid interest from several big clubs, it begs the questions if Alex Sandro will remain at Juventus or leave this summer. In fact, the likes of Chelsea, PSG and Man Utd have shown their interest in the fullback. The former Porto man is not considered unsellable by Juventus, however, the Bianconeri are yet to receive any concrete offers for the Brazilian. Therefore, a renewal for Alex Sandro with the Turin side shouldn’t be ruled out, although it’s possible that offers will arrive after the World Cup. It will come down to the player’s will, in fact, last year the left-back…

Brazil midfielder, Frederico Rodrigues de Paula Santos has said he is aware of a “strong bid” from Manchester United, as he edges closer to a £52.5million move to Old Trafford. The 25-year-old player also admitted that a move to Manchester City fell through in the January window. Fred is due in England this weekend, when Brazil fly in for a pre-World Cup friendly against Croatia at Anfield and it’s understood that he is on stand-by to undergo a medical. “Talks have been at an advanced stage since January,” he said. “There was a possible transfer to City. Shortly after, both…

Mikel said he was anticipating leading leading the team to the Russia World Cup in the summer. “I am happy to be here.

The Eagles will take on Democratic Republic of Congo in a friendly game in…
Gabriel Jesus has said he’s returning to his best form after an MCL injury significantly hampered his season this term. “I am very self-critical and always will be. I think this makes me want to improve, always,” he said. “But just because I’m self-critical and say what I thought of my performance in a game, it doesn’t mean I will bring myself down, ever. This is a point that just makes me improve. If I see that I didn’t do well, I am going to want to get better, always. This only helps me out.” Because of his injury and…
Daley Blind has won three major trophies during his four-year spell at Manchester United but, when speaking to United Review, it’s clear which one means the most to the Dutchman… “There is a special story behind all three trophies I’ve won with Manchester United but, of course, the Europa League final against Ajax is something special which I will never forget. A lot was made of the fact that winning the Europa League would put us back into the Champions League, and of course that is something that is in the back of your mind, but all season long, through…
Marcus Rashford is making sure he stays at the peak of fitness as he enjoys a few days off before the World Cup this summer. The Manchester United forward shared a picture on Instagram of him doing shuttle runs in just his shorts and trainers while on holiday in the sun. Rashford, one of the 23-man England squad for the tournament in Russia, captioned the picture: ‘Few days rest to recharge but keeping conditioned, big summer ahead.’ Rashford will be aiming to rediscover his touch before England’s opening game against Tunisia, after a disappointing campaign for Manchester United. His United…
Manchester United soccer star Romelu Lukaku — who just signed last month with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Sports — was spotted having dinner Wednesday in Miami with Roc Nation music client Fat Joe. The duo were at the newly opened Novikov, an outpost of the London eatery owned by Russian billionaire Arkadiy Novikov. An international crowd “swarmed the soccer hunk” at the eatery, we hear. “Several ladies asked for photos,” said a source. Lukaku was seen giving Fat Joe a signed jersey with his number, 9. We reported this week the player was also in Manhattan at Lavo, but that no…
Paul Pogba is being held back at Manchester United by those players around him, says club legend Roy Keane. The France international midfielder, who has been selected in Didier Deschamps’ side for World Cup 2018, has regularly courted criticism since moving to the club in the summer of 2016 for a record fee of €105 million (£89m/$123m). Indeed, ahead of the summer’s competition in Russia, Denmark boss Age Hareide, whose side will face France, has suggested that the Parisian only “cares about his hair”. Keane, who spent 12 years of his career anchoring the Old Trafford side in a similar…

Jamie Vardy’s remarkable rise continues at this summer’s 2018 World Cup, where Hollywood script writers are hoping for a “fairy tale ending” to the England football striker’s story. The former non-league player had not even made his Premier League debut when the Three Lions headed to Brazil four years ago. But now Vardy is an established top-flight performer and England international, scoring seven goals in 21 appearances for his country and bound for Russia after playing at Euro 2016. Yet the most striking part of the ex-Stocksbridge Park Steels frontman’s rise came at Leicester, having helped them out of the…
Victor Moses was named in the 30-player provisional squad for the World Cup by Nigeria and is obviously expected to make the final cut to 23, but he will not be joining up with the rest of the Super Eagles until late next week. With his place not under threat, it’s probably wise to give him an extra week off after the long club season, which included playing in the FA Cup final just last weekend. Nigeria are set to take on DR Congo on Monday in their first friendly of World Cup preparations, with national team captain Mikel John…

Reports suggest that Serie A giants Juventus have already initiated contact with Manchester United forward Anthony Martial’s entourage. It is believed that Martial is disillusioned with life under Jose Mourinho at United and is likely to seek a move away from the club this summer. Juventus have drawn links with the Frenchman over the last few weeks and reports claim that the bianconeri have already made contact with the player’s entourage as they look to seal a move for him.
