What a turnaround from the squad and coaching staff. Massive credit to everyone involved. Now the board needs to do their part and back the project with quality signings this summer so we can take the next step next season
🚨 Roma's position on Manu Kone is FIRM. They want £40m to sit down at the negotiating table. As of now, United are monitoring the situation but nothing concrete.

Just to let Manchester United fans know, since so many of you have followed me over the last few days (thank you all): the club had already planned not to go any further at the time of my tweet. You deserved to know the truth.
What followed was purely a PR and communication strategy. If the club had abruptly ended negotiations, they would have been legally vulnerable to lawsuits from Atalanta or the player's agents for wrongful termination of discussions ("rupture abusive des pourparlers"), given that a principled agreement had already been reached.
That is precisely why the club panicked when they saw my tweet and pushed several journalists to issue blanket denials, making it look like everything would be finalized after Brazil's World Cup run ended.
That is the one and only reason why the club directed the media toward a deal that was supposedly still ongoing (giving them time to secure their medical and legal case). Yet, behind the scenes, the truth was very different... 🤭
Case closed. Onto the next one.
🚨🔵 Alejandro Garnacho can leave Chelsea this summer and he’s not untouchable.
In case of good proposal on permanent deal, #CFC ready to open doors to exit with initial movements started in terms of clubs keen.
Garnacho can leave after just one season at Chelsea.
