Cantona - Ratcliffe 'destroying' United
Man Utd legend Eric Cantona has taken an incredible swipe at co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
The Frenchman claims the Ineos owner and his team are trying to "destroy everything" and blasted the decision to move away from Old Trafford.
"Cantona, 58, said: “I support United because I really love United, but now if I was a fan and I had to choose a club I don’t think I would choose United.
“For me, that is very important to respect these people like you respect your manager and your team-mates.
“I think since Ratcliffe arrived it’s the complete opposite and this team of directors they try to destroy everything and they don’t respect anybody.
“They even want to change the stadium.
“The soul of the team and the club is not in the players. All the people around is like a big family."

Sesko race
Benjamin Sesko could join Man Utd rather than Arsenal, according to one transfer insider.
The RB Leipzig forward has been attracting attention from Prem clubs ahead of the summer.
The Athletic's David Ornstein claims Arsenal have put "significant work" into Sesko.
But he adds that the Gunners have "reservations" about a possible deal and the forward could yet end up at either United or Chelsea.

Oh no-na

It looked set to be a huge comeback win for Ruben Amorim's side in France.
The Red Devils trailed after a first-half error from Andre Onana, but showed spirit to fight back.
Leny Yoro netted the equaliser right before half time, with Joshua Zirkzee grabbing what appeared to be a crucial winner in the 87th minute.
But deep into stoppage time, Rayan Cherki levelled the tie ahead of a huge second-leg at Old Trafford.

Roo can do it
Man Utd legend Wayne Rooney made sure to stop by and support a fellow wonderkid during the Premier League Darts in Manchester.
The England and Everton bagsman was in the crowd to watch Luke Littler, 18, try and make history with a record fifth nightly win.
Stockport star Nathan Aspinall said: "I believe Wayne is going to be here.
"One of the drivers told me he was coming down. I don’t think he is coming to watch me.
“That is the thing with darts at the moment, it’s attracting so many big names to come and watch us play. I think they appreciate the talent and the pressure that we are under night after night."

Amorim's Desire
Manchester United are reportedly huge admirers of PSG's Desire Doue.
But they would have to shell out an eye-watering sum to land the 19-year-old from France.
Fichajes state that PSG boss Luis Enrique views the French international as a "cornerstone" of his project.
The teenager has racked up 12 goals and 12 assists in 43 games this season.
And the Ligue 1 champions have valued Doue at £258million.

Dane in the dumps
Rasmus Hojlund's Man Utd career could soon be over as the Red Devils consider shipping him out.
That's according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, who says Serie A clubs are keeping a close eye on the Danish striker.
Hojlund has been heavily linked with Napoli and a deal that could see Man Utd sign Galatasaray loanee Victor Osimhen in return.
The forward is already proven in Italy, having enjoyed a stellar season at Atalanta before moving to Old Trafford.

Amorim - Mainoo can improve
Ruben Amorim has admitted Kobbie Mainoo is a work in progress - as speculation over the teenager's future at Old Trafford continues to swirl.
The 19-year-old has yet to pen a new deal ahead of a potential squad rebuild over the summer.
Amorim said: "When I see Kobbie Mainoo, I see a lot of talent.
"But in the way I see it - I could be wrong, that's for sure - I see some things that Kobbie Mainoo has to improve.
"When I see Kobbie Mainoo, I see not as a full player in the moment because he's 19 and if I say to Kobbie, 'No, you are done, you are the final player', I think I am not helping Kobbie. That's all."

Can't go on
Red Devils legend Eric Cantona claims Manchester United have lost their soul.
The French forward was back in Manchester at the weekend and took in the disappointing goalless derby draw against City.
Cantona, 58, said: "I support United because I really love United, but now if I was a fan and I had to choose a club I don’t think I would choose United.
"For me, that is very important to respect these people like you respect your manager and your team-mates.
"I think since Ratcliffe arrived it’s the complete opposite and this team of directors they try to destroy everything and they don’t respect anybody.

Marcus Rashford Exclusive
Aston Villa are set to go head to head with Paris Saint-Germain this summer in a battle for Marcus Rashford.
Sun Sport can reveal the Premier League side want to make the current loan arrangement they have with the England star a permanent switch.
Manager Unai Emery has told Villa chiefs he’s confident the Manchester United forward’s head is in the right place and that signing him would help take the club to the next level.
The big issue will be Rashford’s salary but Villa hope he could be persuaded to take a drop in his wages in order to secure a move that will help resurrect his career with the club and England.
Emery - who took a risk by signing Rashford - rates him very highly.
So highly in fact that Villa sources said he’d be prepared to make him their main striker should Ollie Watkins leave over the summer.

Chelsea transfer competition
Manchester United will face competition from Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
That is according to Sky Sports, who report the Blues are keeping tabs on some similar targets.
The West Londoners are eyeing Ipswich Town star Liam Delap, who poses as a top target for United.
Chelsea are also keen on Eintracht Franfurt's Hugo Ekitike, who's been linked with Man Utd.
RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko and Lille's Jonathan David are also options.

Ferdinand transfer advice
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has named four players manager Ruben Amorim must sign this summer.
I agree with Gary Neville that they need five players, I think they need four or five players but they will be constrained by [Profit and Sustainability Rules]. I want a centre midfielder to play alongside [Manuel] Ugarte.
That player needs to be able to take the ball and transfer it through to Bruno [Fernandes] and the strikers. And you know who I'd go for? Adam Wharton.
We need [Victor] Osimhen. We need experience. We need someone who knows how to score. We need someone who can come and show these young strikers at Man United how to do it.
Another one I'd go and buy is [Matheus] Cunha. He's made it clear that he wants to leave so I'd go and get Cunha.
You know who else I'd go and get? [Jeremie] Frimpong at right wing-back.
Rio Ferdinand -
Liam Delap demand
Ipswich Town star Liam Delap will be available for a cut price deal if his team gets relegated to the Championship.
Ipswich are 18th in the Premier League table with 12 points separating them from 17th-placed Wolves, which means that the drop is becoming increasingly likely.
And SunSport understand Delap will be available for as little as £30million if the Tractor Boys are relegated.
Any deal to sell the striker will also see Manchester City, who sold him to Ipswich for £15m plus £5m in add-ons last summer, earn 20 per cent through a sell-on clause.

Jack Grealish incident
A Manchester United fan who is charged with assaulting Manchester City ace Jack Grealish at the end of Sunday’s Manchester derby has been banned from Old Trafford.
Alfie Holt, 20, is alleged to have slapped Grealish as he walked off the pitch following the 0-0 draw.
The winger was walking towards the tunnel at the end of the Premier League game when Holt is alleged to have beckoned him over and raised his hands to the England international.
The 29-year-old, who came on as sub in the 74th minute, complained to club officials and cops later arrested a man.
A Gtr Manchester Police spokesperson said: "Alfie Holt, 20, of Droylsden, has been charged with assault. He will appear at Manchester Magistrates Court in July.
“This charge relates to an incident which took place at Old Trafford Football Club.”

Man United front
Manchester United legend Gary Neville has stepped in to raise money for former players after minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe pulled the plug.
In a big cost-cutting drive, billionaire Ratcliffe axed the ailing club’s annual £40,000 donation to an ex-stars fund.
The Association of Former Manchester United Players was set up in 1985 with its main objectives of promoting friendship, support as well as charitable work.
Neville has worked with the club to organise an event to honour ex-striker Andy Cole, with the proceeds going to AFMUP.
Guests at the £125 a ticket bash on April 24 will include legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

Dan Ndoye boost
Manchester United have been linked with a transfer war against Napoli over Bologna star Dan Ndoye.
But United may have the edge as Ndoye has a past with minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe's INEOS.
The versatile winger started out at Lausanne-Sport, which is one of the clubs owned by Ratcliffe's group.
The Switzerland international then moved to Nice – another Ineos club.
However, Napoli’s interest poses as a real threat as they are still searching for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia', but United’s Ineos ties may just play a key part in any deal.'s replacement.

Matheus Cunha interest
Manchester United are tipped to open talks over recruiting Wolves star Matheus Cunha.
According to Give Me Sport, United are close to launching negotiations with Cunha’s representatives.
Until now, the Gunners have been rated as the versatile forward's biggest admirers but Man Utd are also in contention.
Therefore, a transfer war looks very likely between the two Premier League giants.
