Manchester United’s latest acquisition targets becomes Neymar and Kylian Mbappé considering Sheikh Jassim’s transfer wish list’

The latest news on the Manchester United takeover process on Monday 3rd July.
Manchester United are busy in the transfer market and looking ahead to next season, but in the background the club’s takeover saga continues.

United are closing in on the potential £60million signing of Chelsea’s Mason Mount. The midfielder was at Carrington training ground for a medical before becoming Erik ten Hag’s first signing of the summer. However, neither Sir Jim Ratcliffe nor Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani are any closer to gaining exclusivity and ultimately taking over at Old Trafford. Months of negotiations and offers to the Glazer family follow, but as it stands there is no conclusion in sight.

Manchester United are busy in the transfer market and looking ahead to next season, but in the background the club’s takeover saga continues. United are close to completing the potential £60million signing of Mason Mount from Chelsea. The midfielder was at the club’s training ground in Carrington for a medical before becoming Erik ten Hag’s first signing this summer.

However, neither Sir Jim Ratcliffe nor Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani are any closer to securing exclusivity and ultimately taking over Old Trafford. Months of negotiations and offers to the Glazer family ensue, but the process is not yet in sight.

Sheikh Jassim’s Galactic Approach

If Sheikh Jassim’s bid to take over United is successful, there could be a revolving door at Old Trafford this summer.
According to the Daily Express, the Qatari wants to travel the galactic route that Real Madrid has been famous for for years. The report highlights transfer links including PSG duo Neymar and Kylian Mbappé.

United have little experience of signing big names for high fees. However, it has recently been claimed that they have an interest in Brazilian star Neymar and that Shiekh Jassim is also “tempting” by the prospect of taking Mbappé to Old Trafford.

Sheikh Jassim ‘confident’ of success

Sheikh Jassim’s offer differs from Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s in one key respect: Qatar’s approach would result in a full takeover of United, while Ratcliffe would hold a majority stake with the Glazer family remaining at Old Trafford.

“So, instead of Qatar looking this as them vs Ratcliffe, which has been the narrative for much of the takeover, I think Nine Two Foundation feel like it’s about whether they’re picked for the sale or whether the Glazers opt for a no deal with some form of financing, then put the club on the market at a later date.”

Former Ajax player looking foward to reunite with Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford – Reports

According to Gazzetta, former Ajax star Andre Onana is keen to reunite with Erik ten Hag at Manchester United. The Red Devils have been linked with the player, who plays for Inter Milan.

United are actively looking to sign a new goalkeeper. David de Gea’s contract has expired, and the Spaniard looks unlikely to stay at the club. Hence, United are looking to sign a new shot-stopper in the summer. Onana is United’s primary transfer target.
He previously played under Ten Hag at Ajax. The goalkeeper was a key player for Inter Milan last season as the Nerazzuri reached the UEFA Champions League final. He made 41 appearances across competitions, keeping 19 clean sheets.

Manchester United are looking for a goalkeeper who can distribute well with the ball on his feet. Onana corresponds to this profile. Its range of passes was fully exposed throughout last season.
Having played under ten hag before, Onana is well aware of the style of play of the Dutchman. Therefore, it could prove to be an excellent addition to Old Trafford and adapt well.

What did Frank Lampard said about Manchester United-Target’s Mason mount? Mason Mount is set to join Manchester United from Chelsea. The Red Devils have reportedly agreed a £60m deal for the player.
However, Mount was not in his best form last season. He made just 35 appearances in all competitions, scoring three goals and providing six assists. Along with spending time on the sidelines due to injuries, Mount also failed to secure a regular starting spot. Hence, many are sceptical whether Mount can make a team like Manchester United better. Frank Lampard, who served as Chelsea’s caretaker manager after Graham Potter’s sacking last season, defended Mount in April. He said about the 24-year-old (via Manchester Evening News):

“I’m not going to tell anyone what opinion they should have on football, but if anyone thinks Mason Mount is not already a top-level player, then I’m not sure what they’re seeing.”

Lampard added:

“From working with Mason – you can ask myself, you can ask Thomas Tuchel, you can ask Gareth Southgate, you can ask Graham Potter – it’s clear he’s a top player and a top lad.
“One thing I know about Mason, the first thing a top player should have is a real hunger to succeed and play and do well for Chelsea, and he’s had that since the first day I took him to Derby. That’s simple for me. He is still a young player. He can go further, but he is already a top player.

Mason Mount is a very technical player and has demonstrated his skills at the highest level. He could prove the critics wrong by returning to form under Ten Hag at Manchester United.

Man Utd takeover: The reason for the delays in the club sale process

Qatar’s bid to take ownership of Manchester United is growing in confidence they will win the race to buy the club from the Glazer family understands 90min.

Led by Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani, the Qatari bid has gained the edge over a rival bid from Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS in recent weeks. It’s a proposition that would see the 13-time Premier League champion 100% owned, up from Ratcliffe’s latest offer of a partial buyout.

The family has pledged £6 billion, although all offers to date have come in below the asking price. The valuation was set by the Glazer family and the Raine Group, who negotiated the sale on their behalf. United’s valuation is compared to the valuations of other sports franchises, notably the NFL, and it is understood the Glazers believe United are worth far more than the $6 billion sale of the Washington Commanders in April.

Instead, they believe the value is more in line with that of the Dallas Cowboys, the world’s most valuable sports franchise, last valued at $8 billion – and that United even have the potential to surpass that figure. .

READ THE LATEST ON THE MAN UTD TAEKOVER

However, none of the buyers are willing to increase their offer at this stage, as the whole sales process takes nearly eight months and counts. The Glazers’ trial, and the property in general, has caused frustration and massive protests from United fans over the course of 18 years – with the protests becoming even more violent in recent months and years.
The delay in the sale has so far impacted United’s proposed transfer deal as manager Erik ten Hag was looking for players but none had signed by early July. There is also uncertainty about goalkeeper David de Gea, whose contract expires on Friday.

This delay was caused by internal disagreements between the six Glazer family brothers, with Joel and Avram – the two most involved in the day-to-day running of the club – favoring Ratcliffe’s eventual offer. However, the other four brothers prefer a full sale, payment and exit, which would be allowed by accepting Qatar’s offer.

A settlement could be reached between the brothers at any time, with Qatar currently confident their bid will win if a decision is made. But as it stands, the “strategic alternatives” process initiated by the Glazers in November continues.

Rice, 24, is determined to join Arsenal and aims to complete a move to the Emirates by the end of June which should put Arsenal in a strong position. Manchester City have also been linked with Rice, but Arsenal are confident he is in pole position amid doubts over whether Pep Guardiola’s men are really waiting for the West Ham captain.

Rice has been given the green light to leave West Ham if a Champions League club can meet his price demands.

Arsenal to make second offer for Declan Rice on Tuesday

Arsenal really appreciate Rice’s ball skills as well as his versatility as he can play in a deeper midfield, as an energetic box-to-box player and also as a midfielder.

Rice helped West Ham win the Europa Conference League and it seems like the perfect way to say goodbye to the London stadium this summer. After the European Cup triumph, CEO David Sullivan said: “We promised him he could go. He carried on with all his heart. You can’t wish for a man who has shown more commitment to us this season.”

“In due time he will have to step in and we will have to get a replacement – ​​or more replacements. We don’t want that.” We offered him £200,000 a week 18 months ago. He refused.
