For AC Milan, the appointment of new coach Conceicao has provided the team with a chance for a fresh start. Looking at the league standings, with just over half the season gone, the Rossoneri are 8 points away from the top four, which is not an insurmountable gap. At the same time, according to Italian media reports, during this transfer window, RedBird Capital Partners will also adjust the team lineup, with several major transfers already in the works. Conceicao is expected to have a more competitive squad in the second half of the season to help him challenge his expected goals. In midfield, Reinders' performance this season has been almost impeccable. On the defensive end, the Dutch midfielder's excellent running ability provides ample defensive coverage, becoming the most important barrier in front of the backline, with his average number of interceptions and clearances ranking among the best in the team. Compared to his steady defensive performance, what delights fans even more is that Reinders has undergone a "transformation" in attack this season. To date, he has scored 9 goals and provided 2 assists, making him one of the most attacking midfielders in Serie A. In addition, Reinders can contribute an average of 1.2 successful dribbles and 1.1 key passes per game, playing a crucial role in the team's offensive system. Besides Reinders, the performances of Youssouf Fofana and Musa are also commendable, and they will all be important choices for Conceicao in the second half of the season. In contrast, Bennacer, who has recently returned from a long-term injury, appears…

For Manchester United, this season has undoubtedly entered the biggest trough in recent years. Since Ratcliffe took over the team, Manchester United's performance has always been unable to return to the right track. At present, this Red Devil boss is seeking change, from operational concepts to transfer directions, Manchester United will usher in a thorough adjustment. Judging from the situation of this transfer period, Duke has made a move, and Manchester United is on the road to complete reconstruction, several important transfers have been put on the agenda. "Waste Wood" Big Names Are Not Taken Over In the Manchester United first team, Rashford is one of the highest-paid players, with a weekly salary of 325,000 pounds ranking among the top in Manchester United's history. However, the professional spirit of this England international has been questioned in the past two seasons. After Amorim took over the team, he chose to abandon this star player after only two or three games. In consecutive games, Rashford was even excluded from the match squad. It is reported that the reason why Amorim chose to "break up" with Rashford is not so much competitive as it is because of his overly relaxed attitude. It is reported that the day before an important game, Rashford still chose to stay out all night. When Amorim learned of the news and asked him, Rashford made excuses and cover-ups. In Amorim's view, Rashford has obviously affected the atmosphere in the team's locker room, and if he continues to let him go, the team will not be able to return…

‌£80 Million! Manchester United's Desired Striker Priced at a Hefty Tag; A Major Squad Overhaul Needed to Sign Him On January 4th, Beijing time, British media iNews' famous journalist Peter Hall updated the latest transfer situation between Sporting Portugal striker Zekai Rais and Manchester United. According to his report, Manchester United manager Amorim sees Zekai Rais as an ideal center forward and is eager to reunite with his former disciple. However, Sporting Portugal has set a price tag of £80 million, which means that if Manchester United wants to successfully acquire this tough player, they must first clean up their existing squad to raise funds. After taking over Manchester United midway through the season, the ambitious Amorim led the team in 11 matches across various competitions, winning only 4 but losing a full 6, with a win rate of just 36.3%. Especially in the last 4 games, Manchester United suffered 4 consecutive defeats, putting Amorim on the hot seat. And it doesn't end there, because in the upcoming Premier League and FA Cup matches, Manchester United will face two strong opponents, Liverpool and Arsenal, and a six-game losing streak may just be a matter of time. Currently, Manchester United's biggest problem is their lackluster offensive methods, with several frontline players' states failing to satisfy. In the last round of the Premier League, they suffered a humiliating 0-3 home defeat to Bournemouth, with forward Zirkze being substituted after only 33 minutes, but despite Manchester United's adjustments, they ultimately failed to score even a single goal. In this situation, despite facing financial…

The future of Chinese football may have to rely on naturalized players to save it. Recently, news about the rapid naturalization of players by the Chinese national team has been flooding social media. According to foreign media reports, the Chinese Football Association plans to naturalize five strong players before next year's key matches, among which the most eye-catching is Chen Dayi. This young striker who grew up in the Manchester United youth training system and currently plays in the English Championship has become a hot topic among fans. Some netizens jokingly say that this may be the biggest move in China's football blood replacement plan. What exactly is the plan for these five players? How will Chen Dayi's addition change the national team's front line? Let's discuss it together. First, let's talk about the naturalization plan for these five players. According to reports, among the five players planned for naturalization, Chen Dayi has the greatest fame. He started his career at Manchester United's youth training and later worked hard in the Bundesliga and the English Championship for many years. His skills are solid, and he even had a highlight performance in the Premier League, breaking through Tottenham's goal. With such a resume, one can't help but marvel: if he had been naturalized earlier, wouldn't the level of the national team's front line have taken off long ago? In comparison, although Wu Xiaohai and Zheng Zeyan also have great potential, their fame and professional experience are slightly inferior. As for Little Oscar and Serginho, their naturalization is basically a done deal,…

This Sunday, Manchester United will face Liverpool away from home, and Rashford, who is in a precarious situation, missed the pre-match training and it seems he will not participate in the Double Reds game. The 27-year-old British star will miss six consecutive games and may never play for Manchester United again. Due to his attitude in training, Amorim has consecutively benched Rashford four times, and in the match between Manchester United and Newcastle, Rashford, who was on the squad list, did not get the chance to play. This week, Rashford missed training due to illness and will most likely not participate in the match against Liverpool. Although photos were taken of Rashford dining with Malacia in Manchester, showing no signs of illness or injury, Amorim stated that Rashford was sick and had not participated in recent training. And this week he will miss the game because he missed training. Rashford is put on the transfer list The winter transfer window has opened, and Rashford has also been put on the transfer list by Manchester United, hoping to complete the transfer as soon as possible. Manchester United hopes to exchange Rashford for Osimhen from Napoli to upgrade the front line. The 26-year-old Osimhen was loaned to Galatasaray in the Turkish Super League, a powerful striker stronger than Rashford and Zirkze. However, considering Rashford's high weekly salary of 325,000 pounds, unless Manchester United makes a high compensation, they cannot send Rashford away. Does Mourinho want to buy Rashford? Some media claim that Fenerbahce is very interested in Rashford, and Mourinho hopes his…

Newcastle United defeated Tottenham 2-1 on Saturday, ranking fifth in the league table and leading Manchester United by a significant margin of 13 points. The team's forward, Alexander Isak, scored another goal, bringing his total to 13 in the Premier League this season. In the summer transfer window of 2022, the Red Devils had the opportunity to sign the Swedish striker but instead opted to acquire Antony at a higher price, a decision that has been criticized. However, according to Spanish media reports, it was not that Manchester United did not want to buy Isak; rather, Isak himself rejected Ten Hag's offer and chose Newcastle. Isak also scored against Manchester United in the previous round, attracting attention from top clubs with his performances in La Liga and the 2020 European Championship. The Red Devils made an offer, but to their surprise, Isak preferred to play for the less renowned Newcastle over accepting the olive branch from Old Trafford. Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo" reported that in the summer of 2022, Manchester United presented an "attractive offer," which Isak and his agent team firmly rejected, leaving the Red Devils without the chance to negotiate with his former club, Real Sociedad. It is well-known that, although it does not conform to regulations, most clubs will first approach the player before a transfer. Manchester United invited Isak, but he believed that the Theater of Dreams has become a black hole for stars and is not suitable for his further development, so he declined the offer. After learning of his decision, Manchester United withdrew their…

Congratulations to AC Milan! They have managed to secure a deal for Manchester United's star player, Marcus Rashford, at half price. This move comes with a significant reduction in salary, as Rashford is currently at the peak of his career and is aiming to compete for the Serie A Golden Boot. Rashford, who has been a key player for Manchester United in recent years, has consistently demonstrated impressive skills on the field. The club had previously offered him a top-tier salary during contract renewal negotiations. However, it seems that Rashford has now fallen out with new manager Amorim, leading to his marginalization within the team. Recent league matches have seen Rashford absent from the lineup, indicating his diminished role under the current management. Reports from Manchester United suggest that Rashford believes he will not receive playing opportunities under Amorin, a sentiment he openly discussed in a television program regarding his future prospects. In light of this situation, AC Milan has expressed interest in acquiring Rashford during the winter transfer window. The Italian club is willing to take him on loan with an option to buy, which aligns with Manchester United's desire to swiftly resolve the Rashford issue. The English club is even prepared to make a substantial concession by covering part of Rashford's salary, making the offer particularly attractive to Milan. Rashford's abilities are unquestionable, as evidenced by his 31-goal season prior to his contract renewal. If he can maintain his form at Milan, he has the potential to challenge for the Serie A Golden Boot. At the height of…

In 1986, when Ferguson became the manager of Manchester United, he once boasted, "One day, I will definitely push Liverpool off their damn throne!" At that time, Manchester United had won 7 top-flight league titles, while Liverpool had 16; Manchester United had won 1 UEFA Champions League title, while Liverpool had 4. By 1990, Liverpool's top-flight league titles had reached 18, while Manchester United remained at 7. In 2011, Ferguson achieved his goal, leading Manchester United to win their 19th English top-flight league title, surpassing Liverpool. Before retiring in 2013, Ferguson led Manchester United to win the top-flight league title 20 times, which was not excessive but rather significant. In 2020, Klopp led Liverpool to win their first Premier League trophy, and Liverpool found that they still had one less top-flight league title than Manchester United. When Ferguson retired, he certainly did not expect that the legacy he had accumulated through half a lifetime of effort would be squandered by his successors in just over a decade. In the 2024-25 Premier League season, Liverpool, the arch-rival of Manchester United, has been leading for a long time, with a six-point lead after half the season and one game fewer played. Sloot's team is currently the biggest favorite to win the Premier League title. If they can maintain their lead until the end, they will have 20 top-flight league titles, equaling Manchester United. Who will be knocked off the throne? Manchester United is seven points above the relegation zone at the halfway point of the season. Given their current losing streak, it…
