Bastian Schweinsteiger explains why Ralf Rangnick is the 'right person' to manage Manchester United

Manchester United today, leaving the Englishman free to leave for nothing in the summer.Lingard's contract is currently set to expire on June 30, and the midfield reportedly wants to leave.However, according to The Athletic, Lingard's wish will not be granted on Deadline Day despite links to numerous Premier League clubs.Ralf Rangnick had initially allowed Lingard to move, but after a meeting at Carrington on Monday, Rangnick has backtracked on his initial promise.Lingard had hoped to leave in an attempt to gain first-team football to try and force himself into Gareth Southgate's plans for the World Cup.Lingard has made 14 appearances for United this season, however, he only found the net twice for the Red Devils.His form has been a stark contrast to that at West Ham.Lingard moved to the Hammers on loan during the 2020/21 January transfer window, and he was a revelation in the middle of the park for David Moyes' side.The Hammers have been strongly linked for his signature, and so have newly-minted Newcastle United. What do you think of United's decision to keep Lingard? Let us know in the comments section United have already seen a number of first-team stars leave this window.Axel Tuanzebe moved to Napoli on loan while Anthony Martial made the switch to Sevilla on loan, and Donny van de Beek is expected to leave for Everton, also on loan.

Manchester United today following positive one-to-one talks with Ralf Rangnick.West Ham United and Newcastle United have launched fresh approaches for the England international, who is desperate for first-team football ahead of the Qatar World Cup later this year.But despite being given Rangnick's blessing to leave Old Trafford, Lingard's future will ultimately be decided by Manchester United's board, who are reluctant to let him join a rival team.Earlier this month, the club flat out refused to consider approaches from West Ham and Tottenham, who are considered top-four rivals, and demanded the inclusion of a £12 million 'survival bonus' during negotiations with Newcastle.To further complicate matters, the Red Devils suddenly find themselves low on forwards following Anthony Martial's loan move to Sevilla and Mason Greenwood's arrest, and could be hesitant in letting another attacking star go.But Lingard is determined to force through a move regardless, and with both West Ham and Newcastle still as keen as ever to land him, a deal looks likely.The Hammers will be particularly eager to do business with their proposed £50 million deal to sign Benfica striker Darwin Nunez still hanging in the balance, though Newcastle are similarly anxious to get something over the line as it's the last chance they have to bolster their survival bid.Who will Jesse Lingard be playing for this time tomorrow? Let us know what you think in the comments section below...Lingard spent the second-half of last season on loan at the London Stadium and endeared himself to fans after scoring nine goals in 16 matches.The 29-year-old is expected to leave Old Trafford permanently when his contract expires in the summer, though it's understood that if a

Everton are considering a late swoop for Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli.The Toffees would need to sign the former MK Dons star on a permanent deal.That is because they are on the verge of completing a loan move for Donny van de Beek from Manchester United.With Anwar El Ghazi already on loan at the club, they have reached their maximum of two domestic loans in a season.So negotiations would need to be swift this evening to secure a permanent move for Alli.New boss Frank Lampard is a fan of the Tottenham player who has fallen out of favour at the club.Alli, 25, has made just 10 Premier League appearances this season for Spurs.His form has nosedived in recent years and there is a feeling he needs a move away to reignite his career.Alli was a star at the World Cup in 2018 but he has not played for England since June 2019 because of his form.He is keen to leave Spurs and find regular first-team football.But with the clock ticking, it will be a difficult deal for Everton to get over the line.Van De Beek, 24, has completed his medical at Finch Farm today and is finalising his move from United.Everton have agreed to pay his £100,000-a-week wages in full but there will be no option to make the deal permanent in the summer.The Toffees have swooped when it looked like Crystal Palace were set to sign the out-of-form Dutchman from United.Van De Beek has struggled for chances at Old Trafford since his 2020 move from Ajax and interim boss Ralf Rangnick green lit a loan move late last week.The midfielder wanted to join Everton in the summer but the move was blocked by United.But this time he has got his preferred move and will hope to impress in the Premier League in the coming months.

Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick on Monday morning in order to force through a move to Newcastle.The Red Devils midfielder is understood to have spoken to the German coach at the club’s training ground at Carrington on Sunday, where discussions continued into the evening.The Athletic claims the Old Trafford hierarchy want Lingard’s salary covered by Newcastle for the remaining four months of the season, along with a £2.5million loan fee and £12million bonus if they avoid relegation.But with the lofty demands bringing a halt to negotiations, Lingard has taken matters into his own hands.The 29-year-old is looking to force through a loan deal before the transfer window closes.He believes that meeting Rangnick will help push his proposed move and encourage his boyhood club to set terms for a deal which Newcastle will actually consider.That, along with Newcastle’s belief that there may be some flexibility with regards to the figures demanded, have resulted in some late optimism surrounding the deal.United are understood to want a suitable compensation for Lingard, having put huge resources towards the player’s development since the age of seven.Do you think Man United are demanding too much for a player whose contract expires in four months?

Time is running out for Manchester United and their Premier League rivals to strengthen their squads ahead of the January transfer window slamming shut at 11pm this evening.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was spotted in the stands during Manchester United women's FA Cup fourth round tie against Bridgewater on Sunday.The Norwegian was there to support his 19-year-old daughter Karna, who made her debut for the club after coming off the bench in the second half.As such, the pair have become the first dad and daughter duo to play for the club.United ran out 2-0 winners thanks to Charlotte Buxton's first-half own-goal and Ella Toone's strike eight minutes from time.The 48-year-old was relieved of his duties following a dismal run of form which left the club well off the pace in the title race, with a humiliating 4-1 defeat to Watford proving to be the final straw.He was eventually replaced by Ralf Rangnick, who will remain in charge until the end of the season, when United are expected to appoint a permanent replacement.Shortly after being dismissed, Solskjaer said he wanted to spend the next few months "with his family", but insisted that a return to management at some point is almost certainly on the cards."I'll spend some time with my family. That's been probably the most difficult part, through the pandemic, with Norway being open and here being closed, my family moved back to Norway and the young one, he loves it back there, so we've lived apart," he told the club's website.Have Manchester United improved since sacking Ole Gunnar Solskjaer?

Manchester United shouldn't have rushed to re-sign Cristiano Ronaldo, says former midfielder Kleberson.The Portuguese made a high-profile return to Old Trafford in the summer from Juventus.But since the £12.8 million transfer, the 36-year-old has endured a challenging season.Ole Gunnar Solskjaer got the boot in November and the Red Devils have failed to mount a title push.Ronaldo has bagged 14 in all competitions and is the club's top goalscorer this term. But ex-United and Brazil international Kleberson reckons his former club might have dropped a clanger bringing him back.“To be honest, the Ronaldo experiment has been a bit of a failure so far - especially because of the level of player he is and how of late he has impacted the team," he said."When you look at the things he can bring to the club and what he brings to the fans, it’s not been amazing.“The current United team haven’t played well together of late."It’s a tough time for Ronaldo to have returned to the club.

Manchester United after the club have seemingly priced him out of a loan move away.The attacker, who has been with the club since the age of seven, is in search of game-time after being marginalised out of the side so far this season.Newcastle are among the clubs who have been interested in signing Lingard, willing to pay 100% of the player’s salary until the end of the season.But United wanted Newcastle to pay a £12million ‘survival’ fee - an unprecedented clause that means that, if the Magpies did stay in the Premier League this season, they would have to fork out that amount to the northwest club.Newcastle were unprepared to meet the unprecedented figure and so Lingard remains at the club with under 48 hours of the January transfer window remaining.And so his brother Louie Scott has called out the club for the manner in which they are treating Lingard.He posted an image to Instagram featuring Lingard a year to the day after Lingard signed for West Ham's last campaign.The photo featured the player celebrating a goal for the Hammers, along with a caption that read:“A year ago today he was ‘allowed’ out on day release,” followed by laughing face emojis.Can you see this transfer coming off?
