According to Sky sources, Manchester United are currently in negotiations with a club from the Chinese Super League regarding the potential sale of Marouane Fellaini. The 31 year old joined United back in 2013 after making the move over from Everton, and it’s fair to say that he’s been a polarising figure at Old Trafford. Between being viewed as a nuisance as well as one of the Premier League’s most underrated midfielders, the Belgian international has done it all.

Talks are said to have already begun regarding the move, which would be permanent as opposed to any kind of loan agreement. Fellaini would be following in the footsteps of many top players in the last few years, who have decided that the appeal of a major payday in a division much easier than the Premier League…

AS Roma attacker Paulo Dybala has been offered to Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window, according to . The report has claimed that Dybala, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a forward, is available for Tottenham for a release clause of £10.5 million. Spurs have yet to make a decision.

Dybala has been on the books of AS Roma since the summer of 2022 when he joined on a free transfer after leaving Serie A rivals Juventus. The Argentina international, who won the 2022 Qatar World Cup finals, has done well for Jose Mourinho’s side this campaign.

The 29-year-old has made 20 starts and three substitute appearances in Serie A for AS Roma this season, scoring 11 goals and providing six assists in the process. Dybala has also made seven starts and two…

Looking to claim back-to-back Premier League victories on Saturday lunchtime, Manchester United will make the trip to St. Mary s when they meet Southampton.

Southampton

Starting with the hosts, while Southampton might have opened the 2022/23 campaign with a 4-1 drumming away at Tottenham, it appears that the Saints have come roaring back. Along with mounting an eye-catching second-half comeback against Leeds on August 13th, Ralph Hasenhüttl s men have managed to build off of that success. Along with extending on their EFL Cup run earlier in the week thanks to a routine 3-0 victory away at League One outfit Cambridge, the one-time RB Leipzig boss should find the mood in his camp at a recent high. Likewise, enjoying another stellar tur…

Fabian Ruiz is flattered to be linked with a move to Barcelona and Real Madrid but insists he is happy at Napoli. 

Spain international Fabian will be out of contract at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona at the end of next season. 

It was this week reported that talks over a renewal for the midfielder had broken down and Napoli would be forced to listen to offers for him, with Barca and Madrid the player s favoured potential destinations.

Asked about the situation ahead of Napoli s Europa League play-off meeting with Barca at Camp Nou on Thursday, Fabian admitted it was nice to hear of such clubs being interested in him. 

He told a news conference: It s always nice to see yourself linked with great clubs, especially the Spanish ones. 

However, I h…

Hoping to make up some ground in the Serie B title chase, Vila Nova will travel to Ponte Preta in the early hours of Wednesday.

Starting with the hosts, while Ponte Preta might have secured an action-packed 4-2 victory against Mirassol earlier in the month, Nelsinho Baptista s men came crashing back down to earth last weekend. Eventually slumping to a 1-0 loss at the hands of Paysandu, the one-time Santos boss has seen his inconsistent squad muster just a single victory from any of their previous four Serie B appearances. Almost sat in second-tier limbo, the Sao Paulo-based outfit are also seeking some defensive resolve. Including a 2-0 defeat against Botafogo last month, the Macaca have recorded just two clean sheets from any …

Sinisa Mihajlovic is facing a new leukaemia battle after the Bologna head coach revealed he is heading back to hospital for treatment.

The Serie A stalwart, who played for Roma, Sampdoria, Lazio and Inter, was first diagnosed with the disease ahead of the 2019-20 season and underwent a bone marrow transplant in October 2019. He was back in the dugout six weeks later.

He has remained boss of Bologna since then but will step away from his responsibilities for an indeterminate period after revealing he has encountered a setback.

Mihajlovic announced the news on Saturday, telling reporters in a news conference that a routine test had given cause for concern.

In recent years the recovery was excellent, but unfortunately, from the latest analysis some a…

Bayern close in on Kim signing

Bayern Munich are reportedly close to an agreement to sign in-demand defender Kim Min-jae from Napoli. Several Premier League clubs are believed to have shown interest in the 26-year-old South Korea international, but with nothing put in writing, Bayern obviously decided to take advantage of the situation.

West Ham reject Arsenal bid for Declan Rice

West Ham United have reportedly rejected an official offer from Arsenal for the services of Declan Rice. Apparently the offer the Gunners sent stood at £80 million guaranteed, with add-ons potentially rising up to £10 million on top of that, while the Hammers value their captain at more than £100 million.

The 24-year-old midfielder is on the wish lists of a num…

Newcastle United are interested in signing Rob Holding from Premier League rivals Arsenal in the January transfer window, according to . It has been reported that Holding is among a number of defenders that Newcastle are looking at a potential signing this month.

Holding has been on the books of Arsenal since 2016 and has had injury problems. The former England Under-21 international is not getting much playing time for the Gunners at the moment, and Arsenal could well decide to cash in on him now. The 26-year-old has made three starts and two substitute appearances in the Premier League so far this season.

Newcastle are in the Premier League bottom three at the moment and could get relegated to the Championship at the end of the season. Holding is a very good and exper…

Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac urged his side to be more ruthless after they were held 1-1 by RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

Emil Forsberg scored from the spot to equalise for Leipzig after Robert Lewandowski s 199th goal for Bayern had put the visitors ahead.

Bayern are in third place in the Bundesliga table, two points behind leaders Leipzig.

We have to do more with our superiority, Kovac said.

In the end, the result is annoying. We had more chances, played well, but unfortunately two points less than planned.

We played sensationally in the first half, that was the best performance so far. After that, we got ourselves into trouble.

We re pulling the positives out of the game we played a really good game.
