United waiting for ´reasonable´ Depay bid, says Mourinho

Sports By · January 15, 2025 · 0 Comment

Jose Mourinho says Manchester United are still waiting to receive an appropriate offer for Memphis Depay.

United completed the £24million sale of Morgan Schneiderlin to Everton on Wednesday, but Depay – another player the manager has said he will allow to leave this month – remains.

Lyon have reportedly had a £13m bid rejected for the Netherlands winger, while Everton and Nice have been linked with loan moves, but Mourinho is not keen on a temporary switch.

And he wants to see a better offer before he allows Depay to leave as he seeks more regular first-team football.

The latest is that the offer that we have had is far from being reasonable for us, Mourinho said ahead of Sunday s home Premier League match against Liverpool.

At the moment, he is our player and if in the end [of the window] nothing happens, he is one more option for us.

Depay joined United for a reported £25m from PSV in 2015, but is yet to start a Premier League match this season having been heavily involved in his debut campaign under Louis van Gaal.

Josef Martinez broke an MLS record by scoring in a 10th consecutive game for Atlanta United on Sunday.

The Venezuelan forward headed in a Julian Gressel cross for the opening goal – and MLS record – in the 42nd minute against New York City at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Martinez continuing his hot streak meant he surpassed the previous best mark he briefly shared with Portland Timbers star Diego Valeri.

The 26-year-old has netted 14 times during his run, which started in May, to close in on Los Angeles FC star Carlos Vela atop the MLS goalscoring charts.

Steven Taylor makes switch to Wellington Phoenix

January 17, 2025 0

Steven Taylor has officially completed his move to Wellington Phoenix. The 32-year-old spent more than twenty years of his life on the books at Newcastle United before eventually departing in 2016, and since then, he s been bouncing around a series of clubs such as Ipswich Town and Peterborough United. Now, however, it s time for him to start a new chapter as he approaches what will likely be the final few years of his playing career.

Taylor was an imposing defender who always seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to that next level, but for one reason or another could never quite manage it. He played for England throughout the youth system but was never able to earn a call-up to the official senior team, although his impact on the game and Newcastle United will likely …

Bitesize Prediction: Leicester vs Swansea – 30/01/24

January 16, 2025 0

Market: Leicester win

Odds: 2/5 @

Simply looking to widen their buffer at the top of the Championship standings on Tuesday night, Leicester will welcome Swansea to the King Power.

Starting with the hosts, while Leicester might have lost their Premier League status last season, the Foxes are certainly breezing their way to an immediate top-flight return. Opening Tuesday’s showdown at the King Power holding a commanding seven-point buffer over the chasing pack, Enzo Maresca’s side have also broken a string of Championship records. Last seen over the weekend extending on their FA Cup adventure as they claimed a 3-0 romp at home against Birmingham, the former Manchester City coach has seen his squad suffer just a single defeat from any of their previous 14 strai…

FIFA have gone totally mad

January 16, 2025 0

It is officially true, FIFA have gone totally mad. The FIFA medical chief, Michael D’Hooghe, has said Referees should show more red cards to help curb violent play.

Riches

He also went on to make a link between violent play and the financial riches on offer to players. He produced a DVD of some of football’s worst tackles in recent years to show the delegates at the FIFA medical congress.

We see more violent fouls over the whole world, as games gain in financial importance. Some of the fouls send shivers down your spine. We see more violent fouls over the whole world. The referees have the key. They are the only ones who can impose an immediate sanction. They do not do it often enough and there is a lack of uniformity.

Zidane backs Navas and defends Benzema as Madrid aim to bounce back

January 15, 2025 0

Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane dismissed speculation over Keylor Navas future as rumours after the goalkeeper s performance in Sunday s 2-1 LaLiga defeat to Sevilla came under scrutiny.

Costa Rica international Navas was criticised for failing to keep out Stevan Jovetic s dramatic winner, as Sevilla came from behind to end Madrid s Spanish record unbeaten run in stoppage time.

Despite helping Madrid to chalk up 40 matches without defeat, the 30-year-old has appeared short of his best form after returning from an Achilles surgery earlier this term.

Madrid have been linked with a move for Chelsea s Thibaut Courtois over recent months, while an attempt to bring in Manchester United s David de Gea with Navas heading in the other direction famously collapsed a…

A Hectic Summer At Anfield: Who are the midfield superstars that are topping Jurgen Klopp’s summer wishlist?

January 14, 2025 0

Managing to claim what was an essential at home against Brentford over the weekend, Liverpool are still believing that they can secure a top-four finish this month.

While Jurgen Klopp’s side might have shown some extended Premier League issues this season, the ex-Borussia Dortmund boss has now seen his side win each of their last six straight top-flight appearances.

However, still needing favours from elsewhere over the final few weeks, Liverpool have come under some scrutiny for their midfield issues this year.

Along with accepting last month that they will be unable to bring Jude Bellingham back to England this summer, veteran star James Milner will be heading to Brighton on a free transfer ahead of the 2023/24 campaign.

Likewise, with growing specu…

Frank Lampard says Chelsea will only focus on themselves as the season ends

January 14, 2025 0

Frank Lampard said pride will motivate his side in the season’s final weeks rather than the impact Chelsea could have on the fates of other teams.

The Blues are adrift in 11th but could yet have a say in the race for the title, the Champions League and the struggle to avoid relegation with games to come against three of the Premier League’s top four after they face 16th-place Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Victory over Steve Cooper’s Forest at Stamford Bridge would open the door for Lampard’s former club Everton to make headway in their bid to avoid the drop, with three points the difference in a tense four-way fight to stay up.

Putting in the work. Forest next.

January 13, 2025 0

Blackburn have confirmed that Australia captain Lucas Neill is currently training with the Championship club.

The 35-year-old defender is desperately searching for a new club in a bid to play regular first-team football ahead of this year s FIFA World Cup.

Neill has been without a club since his short-term deal with J.League outfit Omiya Ardija expired in December.

Midfielder Steven Defour will ask to leave Porto amid interest from Anderlecht, Tottenham and Aston Villa, according to his agent.

The Belgium international moved to the Portuguese champions in 2011 from Standard Liege but has made just 13 starts in all competitions this season.

Hannover 3/4 to beat Karlsruher SC in Wednesday’s Bundesliga II showdown

January 12, 2025 0

Market: Hannover win

Odds: 

With German football once again taking center stage in midweek, a high-flying Hannover will welcome an inconsistent Karlsruher SC to the HDI-Arena on Wednesday evening.

Starting with the hosts, appearing to have started off where they finished in March, the mood in Hannover s camp should be at a continued high. Putting in yet another eye-catching display and picking up a 4-2 win away at Osnabrück, Kenan Kocak s men also put in a thumping display after landing a 3-0 romp against Nurnburg on their return to action. Although Hannover might find themselves stuck in Bundesliga II limbo, the Reds have won their last three matchups on the bounce, their brightest run of the season so far. Losing just a sole matchup since the end of January a…
