IS THIS YOUNGSTER ON HIS WAY OUT?

James Wilson is set to be loaned by Jose Mourinho to Fulham for a season, with the option of staying at Fulham also.

James Wilson scored five goals on his loan at Brighton last season, but it seems like Manchester United are not yet impressed. If James Wilson fails to deliver next season at Fulham, we could see him leave the club.

Another player that has been loaned is Guillermo Varela to Bundesliga side, Frankfurt as he seeks to impress the new manager. Guillermo Varela was stunning under Louis Van Gaal last season, and hopefully he can continue that run of form next season to impress the manager.

TRANSFER TARGET'S AGENT ARRIVES IN MANCHESTER

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Jose Mourinho and Paul Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, has arrived in Manchester. Manchester United are looking to make an offer for the man himself, Paul Pogba.

The deal includes an offer to juventus of a sum of €125 million, and a five year deal of €12 million for Paul Pogba. 20% of the sale revenue belongs to Paul Pogba so the deal will shorten down to €100 million. Paul Pogba is the most wanted midfielder in the world right now, and could also be the most expensive player, not only just in the world, but in football history.

The question is, do you think Paul Pogba is overpriced, and if so why do you think he is overpriced? And also, if you're against the signing of Paul Pogba, who do you think is a better and cheaper alternative? Whether you like it or not, Paul Pogba is coming back to Manchester United!

THE FIVE KEYS TO SUCCESS

1. Sign Paul Pogba: Signing Paul Pogba will add to things to Manchester United. Firstly, everything he does on the pitch and also the message he will send. Securing the seat of world heavyweight club. He alone, will frighten every single team in which we come up against. Also, he will clear the need for any further deals.

2. Change the style: Last season, to be quite honest, the style of play was dull - simply and too cautious. Jose Mourinho is a manager that wants to win every game, no matter what and at whatever cost. If that means spending 100 million on a player, as long as he's winning. Mourinho will recreate that attacking fire in which he had at Chelsea and Real Madrid.

3. Shrink the squad: As Jose Mourinho has done in the past, he is going to create a close knit squad. Players that he's not likely to clash with. he wants players that will deliver, no doubt. And that might mean selling off a couple of players which is a very difficult thing to do.

4. Trust in youth: Mourinho has shown in the past his sensitivity towards the promoting of youth, however, i'm sure Jose Mourinho will adapt to that after joining Manchester United. Manchester United are different to teams in which he has worked for. We have one of the best academies in the world of football. I'm sure Jose Mourinho is already aware of that, and he will not lose faith in the likes of Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard etc. In fact, he has already expressed his love of Axel Tuanzebe.

5. Wayne Rooney:  We all know that Wayne Rooney can play in just about everywhere on the pitch. However, Jose Mourinho has already revealed that he is going to play Wayne Rooney as a striker. No offense Mourinho, but is that his best position? If it were me, I would play him just behind Zlatan. We have seen Alex Ferguson do that in the past for example the 2012/13 season in which we won the league. Ferguson played Rooney just behind Robin Van Persie in almost every game and as a result, we won the league, of course, and Robin Van persie was able to score 30 goals. 

MANCHESTER UNITED HAVE LAUNCHED A DEAL WITH A BILLIONAIRE

Manchester United have launched a huge deal with a very famous billionaire. Yes, you guessed it, it's Richard Branson and Virgin Money on a four year deal contract! Virgin will be Official Retail Financial Services Partner of Manchester United. Huge!

Richard Branson also tweeted a banterous tweet on twitter to Usain Bolt saying: "@usainbolt know you've always wanted to sign for @manutd - too slow i've got there first."

Manchester United also have a deal with 20th Century Fox also. The club is just getting richer and richer and I really look forward to exciting things
in the coming years. 

LIGA BBVA GIANT LOOKING TO SIGN MARCOS ROJO!

After the departure of Eric Bailly from Villarreal to Manchester United, Villarreal are now looking to sign Marcos Rojo.

Marcos Rojo could be tempted by a move as the Spanish club return to the Champions league and he is more likely to be played at the club. The signing of Eric Bailly adds doubt to Marcos Rojo's future at Manchester United, unless Jose Mourinho has other plans for the Argentinean.

Marcos Rojo still has three years left on his contract, so it seems more likely if Villarreal loaned the centre back or he just remains at the club, on the bench - sadly.

How do you feel about this transfer?

REASONS WHY PAUL POGBA IS WORTH 100 MILLION

1. He is a World Class Player: Paul Pogba is no doubt the best young player in the world. He is skillful, he can score goals from crazy ranges, he's strong and he is pitch perfect in his vision and passing of the ball, just what Zlatan Ibrahimovic needs. This guy is an all rounder. His ability is suited to the Premier League. At 23 years of age, he has a lot to achieve at Manchester United.

2. World Class Players are worth World Class money: Players such as Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo etc. all transferred to teams for crazy fees. And just look at what they've already achieved. Yes, if you sign a player for large sum fees, you are guaranteed success. Manchester United have the money, we are the third richest club in the world behind Barcelona and Real Madrid and these are teams who sign the top players for top fees.

3. Young and Experienced: Paul Pogba has done it everywhere. This summer he competed in the Euros in France representing France, two years ago the World Cup in Brazil, he represented Juventus into a Champions League final a year ago, he has won all the Italian trophies also, year after year. He is young and experienced, just what Manchester United need actually.

4. An Investment: Despite the high sum, Paul Pogba is a huge investment. He is young, as we all know, and in the future we'll have the likes of Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Anthony Martial, altogether leading the team in attack. #lethal. Paul Pogba and Jesse Lingard are already close friends and could create a midfield masterclass.

REASONS WHY MANCHESTER UNITED ARE THE GREATEST CLUB


I'm pretty sure I don't have to explain all of this to you, as you may already know. But just to build up our confidence in the next season, I'm going to go over a few facts about United!

1. The Academy: Manchester United produce one of the best youngsters in the world. Some might argue with that but no doubt Manchester United produce the best youngsters in England, simply. We have produced the likes of Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Marcus Rashford and many more. Believe me there are many more to come.

2. Transfers: Manchester United attract the world's biggest players to the club. One example is Zlatan Ibrahimovic this summer. This guy is a legend, some even refer to him as a god. He could have joined a host of massive clubs around the world where he can be playing Champions League football. But he joined Manchester United. 

3. Money: Manchester United are the third richest club in the world after Real Madrid and Barcelona. And, I think the fifth richest sports team in the world? Amazing. Other clubs will say that the signing of Paul Pogba for a sum of 100 million is too much. But for Manchester United, it may seem a lot still for them, but, it's recoverable. I think I'll do a blog post about why Pogba isn't over priced so tune in for that. *wink*

4. Titles: Manchester United still remain the club in England with the highest number of trophies won. Despite not winning major titles such as the Champions League or Premier League in three years. 

5. Stadium: Manchester United have the biggest stadium in England, after the England's National Team's which is Wembley Stadium and the biggest in the Premier League.

Can you think of any other reasons why Manchester United are the greatest club?

THE BETRAYER TO MAN UTD

We all heard and saw the battle between Chelsea and Manchester United as the two teams rivalled out to sign Cesc Fabregas from Barcelona, and Chelsea were victorious. However, Cesc Fabregas is unsettled on his future at Chelsea, and Jose Mourinho is ready to swoop the Spanish midfielder.

The future of Cesc Fabregas at Chelsea is doubtful after the new manager of Stamford Bridge, Antonio Conte, is looking to strengthen the midfield. Cesc Fabregas has a strong relationship with Jose Mourinho, and could be convinced. After the sacking of Jose Mourinho at Chelsea, Cesc Fabregas was the first player to express words of thanks.

Honestly though, I don't care about all of this rubbish. It's all rumours, the player is not needed. 6 goals, 9 assists in 49 games, no thanks.

FIVE EXCITING FACTS ABOUT HENRIKH MKHITARYAN

Manchester United have completed the signing of another world class player, this time from Borussia Dortmund on a four year contract with the option of extending that contract also.

Fact 1: He scored 23 goals last season in all competitions for Borussia Dortmund. Bear in mind he's only a midfielder, and that is quite a sum.

Fact 2: 32 assists in all competitions. This player will boost the attacking force of Manchester United, no doubt.

Fact 3: He was voted player of the season, last season, for Borussia Dortmund by his fellow players, and named in the team of the season following votes by the players' union in Germany, VDV.

Fact 4: Armenia's all time top scorer, captains the National Team, and received the Armenian Footballer
of the Year Award on five occasions.

Fact 5: He is a player with skill, vision and also a good eye for goal and his style of play is suited to the Premier League.

FLIGHT BOARDING TO MANCHESTER?

Blaise Matuidi of Paris Saint Germain has reportedly left the France International Camp at the Euros Championship competition, to catch a direct flight to England to wrap up a deal with a Premier League club - Manchester United the likely destination. What a signing!

PSG are content in releasing the midfielder after just recently announcing the signing of Grzegorz Krychowiak of Sevilla.

Jose Mourinho revealed in his press conference that he has already signed three players out of four positions. That is Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Striker), Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Attacking Midfielder), Eric Bailly (Centre Back), the missing positing is a box to box midfielder that can contribute both attacking and defensively. And Blaise Matuidi fills all of those roles. 

4 THINGS WE LEARNED FROM JOSE MOURINHO'S FIRST PRESS CONFERENCE AS MANCHESTER UNITED MANAGER

1. It wasn't Jose Mourinho's fault that Ryan Giggs left Manchester United. The welshman preferred a managerial role, but the club preferred Jose Mourinho for guaranteed success.

2. Manchester United have currently signed three out of four players this season. That is Eric Bailly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. There is one more to come and that could be 20 year old Lozano. It could be Pogba? No one knows yet, but there is one more coming.

3. Jose Mourinho wants to win everything and is not against winning the league in the first season. That means that any player is sold, or any sacrifice is made, it's with one goal in mind, to win.

4. Jose Mourinho doesn't intend to use Wayne Rooney anywhere in the midfield position. He wants to only use him as a striker. it seems like he want to use Rooney as a secondary striker to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He works well that way just as he did alongside Robin Van Persie, Danny Welbeck in the last season in which we won the league.

FAREWELL GIGGSY

I can hardly think of any players that have been more loyal than Ryan Giggs in football. 29 years, from the age of 14! That is both as an assistant coaching and a player. We all know what Ryan Giggs has done for our club, and all he has achieved as a player.

After all these years before I was even born, Ryan Giggs has decided to depart from the club onto a different task and environment, since he was unable to reach an agreement over another role.  Wherever he goes, Ryan Giggs will always remain in the hearts of Manchester United fans and the heart of the club. We wish him all the best on wherever he goes.

If you could say anything to Ryan Giggs right now, what would you say?

DESTINATION: OLD TRAFFORD

Yesterday, Zlatan Ibrahimovic revealed on instagram that he is officially transferring to Manchester United, for free! He was also featured on a dramatic video by Manchester United with red smoke and everything where he said "it's Zlatan time." 

Another transfer that has been leaked is the transfer of Henrikh Mkhitaryan. The Manchester United FC store reportedly leaked shirts of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, already. The shirts are found here. But we all know that these transfers are all going to happen anyway and I am really really excited. If you look at the comparisons between Henrikh's stats at Dortmund to Gundogan who played for Dortmund also, alongside the Armenian and transferred to Manchester City this summer, the comparison is phenomenal. 

Sometimes us Manchester United fans underestimate how big this club is. We are able to bring in superstars whereas our rival clubs only bring half good half bad players.

THE QUEST FOR POGBA CONTINUES

Manchester United's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has reportedly restarted negotiations to re sign Paul Pogba, according to L'Equipe, with a price tag of £82.82 million.

Why not? Paul Pogba is keen to play under Jose Mourinho, and Jose Mourinho was keen on signing the French international back at Chelsea last summer. With the money he has now at Manchester United, Jose Mourinho could be tempted.  They've even got the same agent!

There's no need me explaining how good Paul Pogba is because we know what kind of talent this midfielder is. However, the move to Manchester United may seem unlikely, or even impossible. Back in 2012, when he played for the Manchester United academy, he's desire was to play for the first team for Manchester United and he didn't get that. But now that he has proved himself worthy, he may be tempted himself to return to the club that he loves and play in the league that he loved.

Do you think Paul Pogba is a realistic signing? if not, where do you think seems more likely?

REAL GIVE THE GO AHEAD!

Manchester United have reportedly been given the go ahead by Real Madrid, to sign James  Rodriguez from Real Madrid this summer for a fee of £50 million. Which is a bargain!

There are other factors which may influence the move. James Rodriguez has the same agent as Jose Mourinho which could accelerate the transfer due to the connection.

James Rodriguez is a phenomenal player, and is, in my own opinion, the only player which we actually need. He is a goalscorer and a chance creator. Despite all of these attributes in which he carries, James Rodriguez is often neglected on the bench. This may influence his move to Manchester United also. We just hope that these reports are true.

Nevertheless, we are very close to signing Henrikh Mkhitaryan who is a very similar player to James Rodriguez, and if we sign, I don't think there'll be any loss out of it.

TRANSFER OFFER ACCEPTED?

Reports how that Manchester United will sign Henrikh Mkhitaryan for 40 million euros. The Armenian midfielder has only got one year left on his contract, and recently his agent has been expressing their desires to sign for Manchester United.  If the reports are 100%, which I think probably is, he would have an immediate medical at the club as the Armenian national team were unable to participate in the Euros in France.

So what would we be getting? Henrikh Mkhitaryan played a very vital role for Borussia Dortmund last season, helping the German club to attain second position in the Bundesliga. Here are some of his stats from last season:

1. 52 games
2. 32 assists
3. 23 goals

Those are unbelievable stats, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan can add to the creativity of the team, supplying our strikers and attackers. Ilkay Gundogan also played for Borussia Dortmund alongside Mkhitaryan, before his departure to Manchester City this summer. Here are his stats:

1. 40 games
2. 3 goals
3. 7 assists

Look at the difference! The Manchester derby continues to fire up!

NEYMAR COULD LEAVE?

Barcelona have reportedly made a final contract offer for Neymar with a salary of 15 million euros per year including tax. This is the highest the club could possibly go to keep the Brazilian winger at the club.

Barcelona are desperate to hold on to Neymar as a lot of the big clubs are after the chase. Paris Saint- Germain, Real Madrid, surprisingly why are they even bothering, and Manchester United!

There are a lot of rumours involving Neymar to other teams and does seem likely since he's won every possible trophy at the club. He has been linked to Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United but I can only imagine the player staying at Barcelona. Otherwise, it seems more likely if he joined Manchester United. What do you think?

MORATA SLOWLY EDGING CLOSER!

Arsenal have reportedly dropped out of the queue for the quest to sign Alvaro Morata. Real Madrid have raised the asking price of £60 million to sign the young, Spanish striker.

On Tuesday, the club announced that they have resigned Alvaro Morata and will rejoin the team during the preseason. But it's only likely that Real Madrid will sell him on to another team for money of course. This leaves only Manchester United and Chelsea in the race to sign the striker. But to be honest, there's only one winner in this race. Alvaro Morata is a huge fan of Jose Mourinho who managed him at Real Madrid and gave him a debut which he commented as a moment he'll never forget. Ever since then, Alvaro Morata has also expressed that he has not stopped speaking to the Portuguese manager.

Is £60 million worth it for Alvaro Morata? What do you think?

MANCHESTER UNITED MAKE BID FOR JULIAN DRAXLER?

Manchester United have apparently made a whopping bid of £38.5 million for Wolfsburg's Julian Draxler! What a signing he would be, if the reports coming from the Daily Star are true.

The Daily Star also suggested that Manchester United have made an offer for the German International on Monday.

Julian Draxler is no doubt "the most finest German prospect." At the age of 22, he already has the credentials to represent the German national team. That is most definitely proved by his call up to join the squad in the Euros in France. He can play just behind the centre forward, he's tall and physical on the ball as wells as very skillful - just what Manchester United need next season, and I can't think of any other alternatives. What stands out to me is his ability to weave past defenders and pass the ball so accurately despite tight spaces.

Would you like to see Julian Draxler at Manchester United? And if not, can you think of any other alternatives, because
I can't!

ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC IS RETIRING...

from Swedish International football. At the moment though, he's representing Sweden in the Euros in France.

Many people are disappointed with his failure to score a goal in the first two games of the group stages against Italy and the Republic of Ireland. But can you actually blame him. Look at the players around him! At PSG last season, he scored 50 goals! Why is that? Because he has the providers, the midfielders around him. With the likes of Verratti, Angel Di Maria... I could go on forever. When he eventually plays for Manchester United, it would be the same no doubt. We have world class midfielders who can feed him with the likes of Bastian Schweinsteiger, Michael Carrick, Juan Mata, Wayne Rooney... the list goes on. I am confident that Zlatan will be a success at Manchester United.

In fact he will retire from Sweden after the Euros in France, and will not take part in the Olympics in Rio, Brazil. His main focus is to train hard in preparation for his big season at Manchester United!
