Transfer Rumour - Angel Di Maria Linked to Manchester United



According to numerous reports Angel Di Maria, the Madrid Star, has told new Argentinian defender Marcos Rojo that he wants to join Manchester United.
Rojo is one of Di Maria's international team mates. Also, according to some newspapers, United are setting up a bid of around £60 million.
Di Maria is set to be left out of the Real Madrid team tonight. He has also requested to leave Madrid.

But Manchester United are not the only team linked with Di Maria, Arsenal and Paris Saint Germain are also interested.
If these reports are true then lets hope his wish is granted and he comes to Old Trafford.

A bit of other team news, Rojo will not play against Sunderland because he does not have a work permit.

Breaking News- Louis Van Gaal Refuses To Comment on Welbecks Manchester United Future





Louis Van Gaal refuses to comment on Danny Welbeck's future at the club.
The 23 year old apparently held discussions with Van Gaal. This is what Van Gaal had to say:

"The Press are talking, I know what I have said to Danny and Danny knows exactly what I said to him. I think the media is guessing-they were not in the room. I won't speak about it. That is private.
I presume Danny is not saying anything about our conversation. Ryan Giggs was also involved in the conversation and he hasn't said anything either, and I think that's the way it should be. I am happy with it this way."

Danny has scored 29 goals in 139 games and made his debut against Middlesborough at Old Trafford on the 23rd September 2008.

Will he stay or will he go? Put your thoughts in the comments page.

Welcome To Manchester United - Marcos Rojo!






Manchester United have officially signed the young, 24 year old, Argentinian defender Marcos Rojo on a five year contract for £16 million, plus a season long loan for Nani going the other way back to Sporting Lisbon, his old club.

We had the pleasure of watching his brilliant potential at the World Cup 2014 playing with Argentina as he helped them to the final and earlier in the competition he scored against Nigeria in their 3-2 win.
Manchester United will have to pay £4.8 million pounds in total for Nani's wages .

Rojo will wear the number 5 shirt which the Manchester United Legend Rio Ferdinand wore before his recent moved to QPR.

Rojo is Louis Van Gaal's third signing of the summer. Luke Shaw arrived from Southampton for a fee around £27 million pounds, one of the biggest ever fees for a defender. He is 19 years old but is currently out for about a month with a hamstring injury.

Then from Athletic Bilbao the 25 year old from Spain Ander Herrera joined and looked very impressive in Pre season plus he did pretty well against Swansea City, starting to prove his worth of £30 million.
