According to a recent Rene Meulensteen interview, Sir Alex Ferguson was interested in bringing Ilkay Gundogan to Old Trafford back in 2013. The legendary Scot was able to manage some of the best players in world football throughout the course of his illustrious career, and as it turns out, he was hoping to add one or two more to his ranks before hanging up his managerial chewing gum for good.
Gundogan, 27, was with Borussia Dortmund at the time, and this was three years before he eventually made the jump over to United s local rivals Manchester City. The German midfielder was seen as the next incarnation of Paul Scholes, which is arguably one of the highest forms of praise he could ve received.
While the trajectory of both clubs likely wouldn t have changed all too muc…
Ronald Koeman is certain that Ross Barkley will leave Everton this summer but insists that no offers have come in thus far, according to the Mirror.
Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur have all been linked with a move for the England international during the close season but no club has yet made a bid.
Barkley had been offered a lucrative new deal by the Toffees though he has insisted that he is ready for a new challenge and it remains to be seen whether any other club will meet his demands.
The twenty-three year old has racked up one hundred and seventy-nine appearances in all competitions since breaking into the Everton first team back in 2011, scoring twenty-seven goals.
He has spent his entire career so far at Goodison Park…
A dire defeat against Liverpool proved to be fatal for Jose Mourinho at Manchester United in 2018, but an even more humiliating loss to the Reds didn t – somehow – spell the end for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and he continues to cling on.
That s not to say it was a comfortable week for Solskjaer after that 5-0 annihilation at Old Trafford – if you believe the speculation, he probably wouldn t have been in charge for Saturday s trip to Tottenham were it not for Alex Ferguson coming into bat for his former player in the boardroom.
Solskjaer was afforded time, how much we can t be sure, but it was enough to at least prevent United suffering three successive league defeats for the first time since December 1961, with the Red Devils so effective and clinical in a 3-0 victor…

Julian Brandt described Germany s 2018 as like getting smashed in the face , yet he is confident Die Mannschaft can recover and become an elite side again.
World Cup winners in 2014, Joachim Low s side offered a meek title defence in Russia as they bowed out at the group stage, and they were then relegated from the Nations League top tier having finished bottom of a group featuring Netherlands and France.
This calendar year has not started much better for Germany, who were booed off at half-time of Wednesday s 1-1 draw with Serbia in a friendly in Wolfsburg, yet Brandt is confident that the team s quality will soon shine through.
Sometimes you have a year where nothing goes right and you get smashed in the face, that happens, the Bayer Leverkusen midfielder to…
West Ham United are interested in signing Antonio Rudiger from Premier League rivals Chelsea in the summer transfer window, according to . However, according to the report, the Hammers are wary that any approach for the central defender would mean that they could be drawn into negotiations over Delcan Rice, with the Blues interested in the England international, who can play as a defender or as a defensive midfielder.
