Manchester United Roundup: Huge Boost In Pursuit Of Long-Term Target, Miss Out on Another Target And More

Manchester United’s current form will not worry Jose Mourinho too much as the Red Devils are on a 16-match unbeaten run. However, the lack of killing instinct and consequently the failure to take away all the points from the game is hurting United’s cause badly.

Jose Mourinho’s men are currently sixth in the table after drawing their last two games and with only a few days remaining before the ongoing transfer window closes, Mourinho will be keen to bolster his squad for the business end of the season. So here are all such transfer rumours and other interesting stories coming out of Old Trafford today:

Manchester United are heavily linked with the France international for quite some time now and the latest reports suggesting that Atletico Madrid have ruled out selling the striker to bitter rivals Real Madrid will be a massive boost for them.

The former Real Sociedad man has been linked with Chelsea, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain apart from United but Spanish news outlet Don Balon has claimed that Atletico are not willing to sell their star man to their city rivals which might pave the way for a potential move to the Old Trafford.

United miss out on another target:

With Memphis Depay securing a move to Lyon and Anthony Martial struggling to do well, Benfica winger Goncalo Guedes was linked with the Old Trafford outfit. The rumours were further fueled after Benfica president Luis Filipe Vieira travelled to London for talks with Guedes’ agent, Jorge Mendes.

However, the 20-year old is now all set to join French champions Paris Saint-Germain. He is now completing the formalities to complete his move to Parc des Princes after PSG agreed a £22 million fee with Benfica.

The Target has been told, he can leave the club at the end of the season:

Manchester United have joined the race to sign Atlanta midfielder Franck Kessie

Atlanta forward Franck Kessie has been reportedly told he can leave the Serie A outfit after the end of the season.

The highly-rated 20-year old Ivory Coast international has been linked with several Premier League clubs including United and Sky Sports Italia has reported that the forward can make a move in the summer, paving the way for the suitors to make a bid.

Anthony Martial denied loan exit from Manchester United:

With the France international struggling to get enough first team action under Jose Mourinho, his representatives are keen to secure a temporary exit from Old Trafford.  The 21-year old is reportedly disappointed after being left out of the squad that faced Stoke at the weekend but according to Daily Express Jose Mourinho is not looking to let the player go after selling Memphis Depay.
