Operation Xavi for Manchester United

It’s time for English football with Manchester United’s 0-0 draw on the Aston Villa pitch. A result which only pushes back a little further this eternal question: when will Erik ten Hag go away? Because with this result, Manchester has only 8 points over the first 7 days, synonymous with 14th place. A meeting is planned very quickly to decide on his case. Among the many contenders for his succession, a surprising new name has been added: that of Xavi according to information fromEl Nacional. Without a club since his departure from Barça, he is seen as the ideal profile to launch a reconstruction at Old Trafford. And to convince him to come, the club is ready to offer him Fermin Lopez as a bonus. Manchester knows that Xavi appreciates him a lot and makes this signing an asset to seduce him. Barça does not want to sell its young player, but in the event of a big offer, it is difficult to rule out the possibility when we know the club’s finances.

End of adventure between Pogba and Juve

Paul Pogba’s departure from Juventus is taking shape according to information from Daily Mail. The Frenchman saw his suspension for doping reduced by the Court of Arbitration for Sport. He can train again from January and return to competition next March. The player is impatient to return to the Blues and even simply play football again, but not with the Old Lady. The last few months have been emotionally difficult and he believes a clean break with the Italian team is the best solution for him. A decision which delights Juve, who had absolutely no intention of counting on him again and starting to pay him his big salary of €11 million per year. Hired until 2026, Pogba will discuss with the club to find an agreement to end his contract. It remains to be seen where the Pickaxe will bounce.

Real accelerates on the TAA file

The Iberian press like A.S. sends its most sincere strength to Dani Carvajal, victim of a triple knee fracture and absent for several months. A legitimate question arises after this event: should Real recruit in the transfer window to replace him? In its interior pages, A.S. assures that the club trusts Lucas Vasquez and does not intend to recruit. Reverse speech for Marca which explains that this event forces the White House to invest. According to the newspaper, the defensive sector is too tight with only six defenders available, including only one professional right back. A situation that is untenable all season and which risks compromising Real’s objectives. So, the club has no choice but to recruit and should turn to a long-time target: Trent Alexander-Arnold. According to SportMadrid will accelerate the file to try to bring him in this winter, even if it means paying Liverpool the last 6 months of the remaining contract. A file that promises to be complex, looking forward to seeing how Real will get out of it.
