Manchester United finally reached an agreement with Barcelona for De Jong on Thursday. That development came after the Red Devils had sent Richard Arnold and ...

The Red Devils have agreed a £63million fee with Barcelona for the 25-year-old, who is set to be sold as the La Liga giants look to balance their finances. So, with that being the case, Express Sport has decided to get a little creative… If De Jong does move to United, he’ll become the latest player to turn out for both the Red Devils and Barcelona. But United remain confident they can get a deal over the line and that the 25-year-old is open to a new challenge in Manchester. They can’t offer De Jong that same bait, either, with the Red Devils due to be strutting their stuff in the Europa League. That development came after the Red Devils had sent Richard Arnold and John Murtough out to Catalonia in order to broker a deal.

Lisandro Martinez's £46.5m move to Manchester United is almost complete, meaning that the Ajax defender can take Frenkie de Jong's favourite shirt number as ...

Christian Eriksen, who coincidentally just wore 21 at Brentford for the first time in career, is also in line to become one of Erik ten Hag 's first signings as Red Devils boss. The silky playmaker added: "I don't think it's very wise to take the number 14 shirt. Whichever number Martinez ends up with, the 24-year-old's replica shirts have a good chance of flying off the shelves. "I could easily play with another number, you know, it's not a problem, but it is nice that it also gives people a way of recognising me. Who should Man Utd sign if De Jong refuses to move? Progress on Martinez's switch means that he'll be free to take the No.21 shirt at Old Trafford, having been vacated by Edinson Cavani at the end of last season.

Manchester United inched closer to securing Frenkie de Jong on Thursday by agreeing a 635million fee with Barcelona, but one issue is stoppping the Dutchman ...

United are also in advanced talks to sign Argentina defender Lisandro Martinez from Ajax, with a fee reported to have been agreed. Having agreed to defer his wages upon the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, it's believed De Jong is owed as much as £17million by Barcelona, and the midfielder wants to see the money coughed up before he books his flights to Manchester. It's not for their lack of trying, but the Red Devils need to get a move on if they are to bolster their squad and push for a top four spot in the Premier League this season.

Manchester United are close to accepting defeat over their chances of signing Frenkie de Jong after his agents made their stance absolutely clear.

And by the looks of it, they could be chasing De Jong for another month without success. United made their transfer fee breakthrough with a trip to Barcelona earlier this week. Indeed, it is not only Man Utd that want to push the De Jong transfer through. CEO Richard Arnold and football director John Murtough led the talks. But if De Jong is unwilling to make the move, United simply have to move on. He has publicly insisted on more than one occasion that he feels happy at Barcelona.

Frenkie de Jong's agent has reportedly told Manchester United to give up hope of signing the Dutch midfielder, who is 'flatly refusing' to move to Old ...

Maybe they’ve got to give him an ultimatum and say ‘There is this date. “It’s a bit embarrassing for them the longer it goes on, to be honest. And now Sport (via Express) claim De Jong’s agent, Ali Dursun, has told United chiefs Richard Arnold and John Murtough to give up on the midfielder, who is desperate to avoid a move to United.

Erik ten Hag's side are set to play the second match of their pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia on Friday when they face A-League side Melbourne ...

United will face Atletico Madrid in Helsinki on July 30 before welcoming fellow Spaniards Rayo Vallecano to Old Trafford a day later in their final friendly. United will become the latest club to do so on Friday when they take on Melbourne Victory at 11:05am UK time. The Red Devils are set to face the A-League side in the second match of their pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Erik ten Hag's side could be cheered on by over 100,000 supporters, with the MCG capable of holding 10,000 supporters more than England's national stadium.

Manchester United have agreed an initial £63million deal with Barcelona, for the signature of no.1 target Frenkie de Jong. Though there is one problem - he ...

Already on an eye-watering £354k-a-week deal, De Jong is in-line for a bumper increase should he enter the fourth year of his contract. Top earner De Jong is seemingly the one to be sacrificed. De Jong, 25, is Erik ten Hag's no.1 priority in the summer transfer window but negotiations with Barcelona have proved arduous.

Manchester United are trying to sign Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona but are struggling to persuade the Netherlands international to leave La Liga for the ...

"What I'm saying, there is absolutely nothing of an agreement [with United] or anything official," De Jong told reporters last month. De Jong and his partner Mikky Kiemeney have recently purchased a house in Catalonia, while the player still believes he can play an important role in Xavi's team. They have agreed an initial £63million transfer fee with Barcelona but are struggling to persuade the player to move to England. The Catalan giants can't register new signing Raphinha, who scored 11 Premier League goals for Leeds last term, until they trim their budget. How am I going to leave Barcelona?" Ten Hag is looking to rebuild the club's stuttering squad but has signed just one player so far, defender Tyrell Malacia.

Erik ten Hag's Manchester United secured a second win of pre-season, by beating Melbourne Victory 4-1 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, in front of around ...

Still, it shows we have plenty of options for rotation in the forward positions, with Erik commenting in his Thursday press conference that he feels Donny van de Beek could also occupy an attacking midfield – and perhaps even a false no.9 – role. The Ivorian stood out when fielded there in the Liverpool clash, as he set up Facundo Pellistri’s goal – our fourth of the game – but Marcus soon swapped with him, latching on to Eric Bailly's through ball to score our third. The signing of the 35-year-old former United winger has been headline news in Australia all week and even though he’d only travelled Down Under earlier this week and trained twice with his new team-mates, Nani – who stopped to grab a quick word with MUTV before kick-off – was named on the Victory bench. Eight of the 10 replacements had also played in Bangkok, but for Ethan Laird and Tahith Chong, it was a chance to get some minutes in the legs and time on the pitch for United after spending much of the recent time out on loan. For the second friendly in a row, Erik opted to change his entire outfield line-up at the break, with Rashford captaining a younger and more inexperienced side in the second half. The Reds were behind for much of the first half, following a shock early Victory opener, but a couple of goals before half-time from Scott McTominay and Anthony Martial put us in the driving seat.

MANCHESTER UNITED fell behind in their pre-season clash with Melbourne Victory.

Ten Hag is also thought to be keen on signing a new attacker before the end of the summer, with wantaway star Cristiano Ronaldo's future still up in the air. While Ten Hag will naturally place importance on how his team performs in pre-season, there is still plenty of work to be done behind the scenes before United could consider themselves prepared for the upcoming campaign. The Dutchman is gearing up for his first campaign in charge of the Red Devils, where he will be under pressure to perform after a miserable sixth-place finish last term.

Manchester United and Barcelona have now agreed a fee for the transfer of Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong, according to Jacque Talbot.

A fee for de Jong had seemingly been agreed between the same two clubs at the end of June, but the move didn’t progress further over the coming weeks, with the Manchester club sending chief executive Richard Arnold and football director John Murtough to Barcelona to try and conclude the deal this week. The move for de Jong had previously been thought to have stalled between the two clubs, due to outstanding monies owed to the Dutchman by the La Liga club, amongst a multitude of other reasons. Manchester United have agreed a fee with Barcelona for the transfer of Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong, according to freelance journalist Jacque Talbot, with a deal for Lisandro Martinez also all but done.

It was a slow start to the second half with little opportunities at either end during the opening 25 minutes. Tom Heaton, who completed the 90 minutes, was alive to the danger. The Portuguese defender constantly supported attacks, putting in a troubling low cross for Martial to tap home United's second goal. The Scotland international picked up a loose ball near the edge of the box and released an ambitious effort. United dominated possession but were sloppy and struggled to break down the defence. It was a soft goal to concede, in truth.

1 hour 30 mins to KO: Manchester United providing an early glimpse of the stadium. Harry Maguire starts and reclaims the captain's armband. Fair chance a completely different team will start the second half. Victory conceded a league-low 25 goals from 26 games last season in the A-League Men. The Brazilian scored a stunning chip last time out against Liverpool but this one never looked destined for goal. 34th minute: Martial beats a number of players in the final third but eventually gets overwhelmed in the box. Frustration building for the Red Devils. Not using the width well enough early on. The resulting corner is claimed easily enough by Victory's keeper. Ten Hag won't be happy with that first-half showing though with his side often too slow in the final third and looking fragile when defending Victory's counter attacks. Marcus Rashford is now donning the captain's armband for the Red Devils. 43rd minute: Goal! McTominay pulls United level via a deflected effort.

You can also catch up with the ins, outs and analysis on Sky Sports News. Having spoken with him and learned more about his vision and the way he wants the team to play, I am even more excited for the future. John Murtough, Manchester United's football director, added: "Christian has been one of the best attacking midfielders in Europe throughout his career. On Friday evening, Ajax centre back Lisandro Martinez posted an image on his Instagram account of him and his agent on a plane with the caption "heading to Manchester", with a £45m switch nearing completion. "In addition to his outstanding technique, Christian will add valuable experience and leadership skills to the squad, and we are looking forward to seeing the benefits of these qualities on the pitch this coming season and beyond." "Manchester United is a special club, and I cannot wait to get started," said Eriksen. "I have had the privilege of playing at Old Trafford many times but to do it in the red shirt of United will be an amazing feeling.

New Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been encouraged to find someone "with better quality" than Scotland international Scott McTominay.

“I have seen Erik’s work at Ajax and know the level of detail and preparation that he and his staff put into every day. “I think he has enough qualities to feature for Manchester United and a solid servant for the club from the Academy. The 25-year-old progressed through the ranks at United and he made his debut for them at the end of the 2016/17 campaign.

MAN UTD's transfer plans under Erik ten Hag are finally beginning to take shape.

I still have major ambitions in the game, there is a huge amount that I know I can achieve, and this is the perfect place to continue my journey.” “I have seen Erik’s work at Ajax and know the level of detail and preparation that he and his staff put into every day. The 30-year-old briefly trained under Ten Hag at Ajax while he looked for a new club after terminating his contract with Inter Milan last year. “Manchester United is a special club, and I cannot wait to get started. An announcement over a deal is apparently ‘imminent’. New boss Ten Hag has been keen to raid his former club for players with whom he is familiar to ensure a seamless transition to life at Old Trafford. Left-sided defender Martinez has been a top target ever since the Dutchman’s appointment was confirmed in May.

Manchester United scored four goals in each of their first two pre-season friendlies under Erik ten Hag, who selected a pair of XIs in order to take a close ...

With Heaton in-between the posts for the latter stages in Bangkok and full 90 minutes on Friday, the 36-year-old had little to do barring pick the ball out of his net once. "I think we have a good left side but I think you see against Liverpool that we also have attacks on the right side and it was good to see it because you want to have balance. With Bruno Fernandes struggling to offer his usual creative output at No.10, Jadon Sancho was the chief tormentor and his fast feet worked a few openings in both games. And they each bagged a goal across the two matches, as Fred firstly chipped in with a lovely dink over Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker, while Scott McTominay's deflected strike made it 1-1 in Melbourne after the Red Devils had gone behind at the famous Melbourne Cricket Ground. "Of course it will take time, believe me I have seen a lot of mistakes but I will not say [what they were]," the former Ajax manager told MUTV. "But to be honest, Liverpool played with three teams and they were not at their strongest, so we are not overestimating them. Kicking off with a rousing 4-0 win against their old foes in Bangkok, the Dutch tactician then led his side to a comfortmable 4-1 victory down under - all without Cristiano Ronaldo, who still wants out and remains at home for "family reasons."

Manchester United come from behind to beat A League outfit Melbourne Victory 4-1 as they maintained their 100% start to pre-season.

It's up to him." The Dutchman looked stern as he stood on his own on the touchline watching his new charges struggle to break down a side at the beginning of their own pre-season preparations and who were prepared to sit deep. Jadon Sancho played on the right of the attack in the first-half and Rashford on the left after the break.

Undeterred by this first rejection, Ten Hag began planning for the future and held a phone call with his compatriot to inform him of the pivotal midfield role he would be given at Old Trafford.

“Martinez is very skilled and creative in his passing. Then you play with a lot of space in the back and you need players who are reasonably fast and not afraid to cover. Therefore, what’s important is that a defender has cleverness. That doesn’t mean you don’t have to defend. Now most clubs and coaches want to play football.

The Argentine was pictured alongside his agent on a private jet seemingly headed to Manchester, where he is set to undergo a medical and sign his contract. The 24-year-old has been consistently linked with United and Ten Hag has now got his top defensive target. The Dutch side initially remained firm and insisted that their best players would not join Ten Hag at Old Trafford, but have now reneged on their stance.

Manchester United may be about to sign Lisandro Martinez, but they have reportedly set their sights on Felix Uduokhai as another defensive reinforcement.

Even though their defence came under scrutiny last season, it is about to be reinforced. He currently plays for Augsburg in the Bundesliga. On Friday, Christian Eriksen was unveiled as Manchester United’s second signing of the summer.

Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay spoke in glowing terms about new manager Erik ten Hag following our latest Tour 2022 outing.

“It’s cutbacks, it’s getting in the box, all of us, not just myself. MUTV will also be showing short and extended match highlights before anyone else, as well as the full match replay. And we can get fitter, I can get fitter, the whole team can, which is obviously a benefit for the future as well.” I think that’s the best way to break teams down when they play a five [in defence]. “They were very organised in terms of the two blocks they had; they were difficult to get through in the middle of the pitch. “Everyone’s so, so happy with the new coach in terms of the detail and attention to the work that we’re doing, and everyone’s so fit now.

But if we've got a lot of the ball and we're expecting to dominate possession against the so-called lesser teams, maybe then he may not be called in for that position and may slot back into the centre-back position or maybe not even starting." Nonetheless, the Red Devils legend is excited about the versatility Martinez will bring to Ten Hag's squad, as he can also play in midfield or at left-back. Ferdinand is among those who are excited by the imminent arrival and has been hearing "mutterings from different people" about what United can expect from their new signing.

Lisandro Martinez's move from Ajax to Manchester United is nearing completion, he'll cost around €55 million.

Despite his reasonably small stature (he stands around 5’9″), Martinez is great in the air, tackles brilliantly and can play passes as good as any midfielder, something we touched on HERE. For a club of their stature, Europa League football is simply not good enough and the onus will be on Ten Hag to guide the team back into the Champions League for 2023/24. Martinez will be United’s third signing of the summer after the arrivals of Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord and Christian Eriksen on a free transfer.

Much debate was had about his future but Sir Alex made a decisive move for a player who had grown up with the enemy at Liverpool. The fact he took on Cristiano Ronaldo's no.7 jersey showed the manager was not worried about any of that, saying: "He'll give us experience in the penalty box. The decision disappointed Bhoys boss Martin O'Neill but Sir Alex had been impressed with somebody who caught his eye when he was believed to be scouting Vincent Kompany during a Champions League tie with Anderlecht at Parkhead. "Our relationship with Celtic has always been a good one," stressed Ferguson. "We took Brian McClair in exactly the same end-of-contract circumstances before the Bosman ruling came in. We tried to get Karim Benzema but, as soon as that dropped through, we went for Michael." That was evident early in his Reds career, when he scored a memorable injury-time winner in the Manchester derby, and he finished with 17 goals in 52 outings, including a strike in the League Cup final against Aston Villa. He also helped United win the league in 2010/11, something he had failed to manage at Anfield. However, he was later allowed to join Middlesbrough on a free transfer.Every pre-season game, including Tuesday's match against Crystal Palace, will be shown Fortunately, his output matched his ego and his signing proved a masterstroke, as he led the line superbly under Jose Mourinho. Like Cavani, he had left PSG and wanted to taste English football for the first time. "We were desperate to get him when Peter left because he was here when he was a lad but couldn't get a work permit," said the boss. The late Irish midfielder, who sadly passed away in 2018, failed to renew his contract with Celtic and signed a pre-agreement instead with United in January 2004, as was permitted under the Bosman ruling. However, injuries hampered his second campaign and he left this summer, with 19 goals in 59 matches to his name. The Dane's were big shoes to fill but Ferguson was convinced in the new man after agreeing a four-year contract. With Dean Henderson loaned to Nottingham Forest for the 2022/23 campaign, he could be hoping for more first-team exposure this term. Blanc played 75 times for the Reds and helped the team win the Premier League title in 2002/03. The stylish France international had been on United's radar for so long, even after appearing against Alex Ferguson's team for Montpellier during our successful European Cup Winners' Cup run in 1991.

MANCHESTER UNITED are hellbent on signing Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona in this summer's transfer window.

€85m is a large price, but at the same time it wasn’t so long ago that he was seen as one of the hottest prospects in European football. “Ten Hag needs to be able to get the players he wants. And whether United are able to bring in a midfielder, as the clock starts to tick, is something only time will tell. It will be fascinating to see if the Red Devils can get a deal over the line, with the saga starting to resemble the failed pursuit of Cesc Fabregas back in 2013. And De Jong has now dropped a hint he’ll be with his Barcelona team-mates for their upcoming pre-season tour of the United States. Manchester United agreed a fee with Barcelona for De Jong earlier in the week, with the Red Devils prepared to pay an initial £63million to land their No 1 target.

Man Utd legend Rio Ferdinand is getting more and more excited about the signing Lisandro Martinez after "hearing" positive things.

Is he going to be able to deal with people like that the size that he is? The Man Utd legend said last week: “You have to be ready physically to deal with these big forwards. “He’s a leader.

Eriksen became our second signing under new manager Erik ten Hag on Friday, following the transfer of Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord at the beginning of July.

Eriksen is the player that has the quality to make others do that.” Our panel also reacts to the big news that United have signed Christian Eriksen on a three-year contract. He can keep the ball and he’s not scared of the ball as well. He came back into the Premier League and has done really well.” Can he play somewhere else? A quality player.

“He’s very clear in meetings what he wants us to do and how he wants us to approach the games as well. “The manager’s standards are high so you’ve got to get used to that, which is maybe a little bit foreign for some players. There's a lot of different ideas and a lot of variations. McTominay, 25, one of the straightest talkers at United, acknowledged the criticism the players received last season and said they must be big enough to take it – or find a different club. “When you've got a new manager, there's a lot of new ideas and different things that he wants you to work on as a group, and individually as well, which is so important. “Obviously it touched a nerve in terms of when we speak about it again as a group.

Frenkie de Jong is part of FC Barcelona's squad for their upcoming pre-season tour in the US despite Man Utd agreeing a fee to sign him.

That’s part and parcel of it as well.” The Red Devils have not won a trophy since 2017. “If you think you’re going to come and play for Man United and you’re not going to get a little bit of criticism here and there, then you’re in the wrong job because that’s just not how it works at this football club.

MANCHESTER UNITED are eager to bring in Frenkie de Jong in this summer's transfer window.

But a transfer, at the current time of writing, remains up in the air. If De Jong does want to stay at the Nou Camp, then the Catalan giants will make him take a pay cut in order for that to happen. Now, according to Sport, United are ready to throw even more money at the player in order to ensure he joins. Manchester United have spent the majority of the summer locked in talks with Barcelona for De Jong. Manchester United are ready to pay Frenkie de Jong an even higher salary in order to sign the Barcelona star, reports say.

Now, it’s being claimed that United are prepared to walk away from a deal to reunite De Jong with Erik ten Hag if the issues with his wages cannot be resolved.
