Man Utd almost signed Martinez
Manchester United came close to signing Aston Villa star Emiliano Martinez before ultimately opting for Andre Onana last year, according to the Argentina international’s agent.
David de Gea left the Red Devils at the end of 2022/23 season, forcing the Red Devils to look for a new stopper.
Last year he was very close to Manchester United, the coach chose Onana, because he already knew him.
But everyone at Manchester United later maintained that the ideal goalkeeper to win was Emiliano Martínez.

Desire Doue transfer war
Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham are looking to immediately sign Rennes wonderkid Desire Doue.
SunSport understand United, the Blues and Spurs have been embroiled in a major bidding war for the versatile winger’s signature during the summer transfer window.
However, the Premier League trio are facing stiff competition from Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain for the France Under-21 international.
Doue is a “top priority” for both Chelsea and Tottenham, who have already held talks with the player’s camp as well as Rennes.
Negotiations are still “ongoing” between the Prem giants and the teenage sensation as well as his club.
Both London rivals are so keen on the Frenchman that they want a deal to be sealed by the end of the week.
Keane vs Neville
Manchester United legend Roy Keane told fellow club great Gary Neville off for bringing up Teddy Sheringham during a game.
The two United icons were filming a bit in which they guessed their former team-mates from clues.
Neville tried to see if Keane could guess Sheringham, and his first clue was, “You didn’t like him”.
The pundit then added: “That could be anybody. Jeez I have a list.”
To which Keane hit back and said: “No, you shouldn’t say that I didn’t like him.”
The outspoken Irishman then correctly guessed the retired striker very quickly.
Keane added: “No, that’s wrong, I didn’t mind Teddy. I just didn’t get on with him. We had a fallout. It is just working.”
Marc Guehi leaving
Marc Guehi is set to reject the offer of new contract at Crystal Palace leaving the club likely to lose their biggest three stars this summer.
Palace had been hoping to keep hold of Guehi for at least one more season, as they have already sold Michael Olise to Bayern Munich and Eberechi Eze has a £60million release clause, which Tottenham and Manchester City are willing to trigger.
The England defender has just two years left on his contract at Selhurst Park however, and without persuading him to sign a new deal Palace may be forced to cash in.
Palace want Guehi to sign a new contract which would include a release clause when he returns from the European Championship, but SunSport has learned he has no intention of doing so.
The 23-year-old is understood to be keen to explore his options this summer amidst interest from Manchester United, who have noted the ease with which he has adopted to playing as England’s left-sided centre-back in Germany despite being right footed.
Given Guehi has less than two years left on his contract Palace’s negotiating position is less strong and he is likely to be a cheaper option.
Cristiano Ronaldo statement
Manchester United legend Cristiano Ronaldo spoke out for the first time after Portugal’s heartbreaking exit from Euro 2024.
We wanted more. We deserved more. For us. For each one of you. For Portugal.
We are grateful for everything you have given us and for everything we have achieved so far.
On and off the field, I am sure that this legacy will be honored and will continue to be built. Together.

Jadon Sancho latest
Manchester United ace Jadon Sancho is set to return to the club this week with his Old Trafford future still up in the air.
Staff at United’s Carrington base are in the dark as to whether Sancho will resume with the main body of players who are due back for pre-season training.
They are usually given a breakdown – especially in the opening week – detailing things like return dates, who will be out on the pitch and when, as well as testing schedules.
Yet there is no indication as to what the winger’s movements will be, or any sign of peace between him and Erik ten Hag.
