Looking at options

United are reportedly looking at ‘alternative’ options to Atletico Madrid’s Joao Felix. That’s according to a report by The Telegraph, who claim the La Liga side want a loan fee that is too high for the Premier League club. He is being heavily linked with a move to England in this January transfer window but doesn’t appear to be coming to Old Trafford.

Diallo loan recall?

Amad Diallo has been a hit on loan at Sunderland in the Championship so far this season which has raised questions as to whether his parent club could recall him this wonth. The winger has scored six league goals in 19 appearances for the Black Cats. Ten Hag has provided this update on his situation at the Stadium of Light, as per the Daily Mail:

“He has made really good progress there so I’m happy with that. But young players need experiences and when we decide for him to come back, he has to be a player who can compete for the starting XI or minimum to come on for a lot of games and make an impact.’

Ronaldo latest

Cristiano Ronaldo’s association with the Premier League may not be over just yet. The 37-year-old has joined Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia following his departure from United last month. However, Marca claim he has a clause in a deal that could see him join Newcastle United if they can qualify for the Champions League.
