Exclusive: Ten Hag doesn’t want to lose Man United duo despite lack of game time and transfer speculation

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is keen to keep both Harry Maguire and Scott McTominay despite them not being regular starters for the club for much of this season. Jacobs even stressed that United sources have often laughed off any questions about links between Maguire and other clubs, particularly speculation involving Chelsea in the summer. Ten Hag also wants to keep Harry Maguire at the club – there’s going to be interest in him, but Ten Hag’s perspective remains that Maguire is integral to Manchester United. “Unless the player decides he’s desperate to get out, I don’t see a scenario where the club force him out, especially in the short term. But the England Maguire is not a player Ten Hag or United would want to lose.”

Exclusive: Fabrizio Romano’s Daily Briefing – Nkunku Chelsea transfer latest, Arsenal defender links + Ronaldo update

De Paul is a good player, he’s from Atlético de Madrid, we’re happy with him. Still, he recently signed a new contract with Chelsea and he’s very happy there. Inter MilanLautaro Martinez on his future: “I’ve been here for five years, I’m happy here at Inter – I really hope to become an Inter legend.

Exclusive: VAR is killing the beautiful game, Spurs and Arsenal will spend in January and why Ronaldo may have to see out Man United contract

In his 13th exclusive column for CaughtOffside, super-agent Rob Segal lifts the lid on what’s really going on in British football. In this week’s edition, Segal talks all things VAR, what the January window could have in store for Spurs and Arsenal and Cristiano Ronaldo’s Manchester United career. —————————————————-VAR is ruining football…I genuinely believe that the point of VAR is to disallow rather than to allow. Cristiano Ronaldo must accept he isn’t the player he once was…One of the biggest stories at the moment is Cristiano Ronaldo and his Manchester United career. Personally, I think Ronaldo is testing Erik Ten Hag when he doesn’t really need to be tested – it’s unnecessary.

“They hate it!” – Agent says all players are frustrated following recent Spurs controversy

Ever since its introduction back in March 2018, VAR has never been too far away from sporting headlines. Often criticised for its application, the footballing regulatory bodies have continually tried to adapt the game’s rules to accommodate its use. Segal also revealed how all players, not just those of Spurs, ‘hate’ VAR. Football is all about talking points and there’s barely anything to talk about other than ‘was VAR right?’ and ‘was VAR wrong?’ – the once ‘beautiful game’ has turned ugly. “But let me just say this – speaking as an insider and somebody who works with the players day-in-day-out, they hate it!

Exclusive: Fabrizio Romano’s Daily Briefing – Chelsea to be active, Man Utd in forward race, Barca’s Pique replacement + more

ArsenalWhat a result for Arsenal yesterday as they earned a thoroughly deserved 1-0 win against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. For sure Manchester United will face serious competition for the Dutchman; English clubs and not only, it’s an open race. Another player being linked with United is Benjamin Sesko, but I’m less sure of the truth to these rumours. Sesko signed for RB Leipzig last summer and it will be completed in 2023, so I’m told he’s going to Leipzig. Man Utd have been tracking him for a long time, this is not new – last summer Man Utd and Chelsea were interested, but he’s going to Leipzig.
