Rangers News: Massive boost as club makes big transfer decision on Gerrard’s prized asset

The future of Rangers superstar Alfredo Morelos has been under a question mark for quite some time now as recent reports suggested he might be packing his bags for Ligue 1 in the ongoing summer transfer window.

Of course, this would’ve been a huge blow for Steven Gerrard’s squad, seeing how instrumental he’s been for their campaign. Still, according to the latest update from Daily Record, Morelos is set to stay at Ibrox despite strong links with Lille.

The two parties have apparently agreed terms for his potential switch but the French outfit has now opted against going through with the deal as they are on the brink of finalising the transfer of Gent’s Jonathan David for £27m instead.

Morelos was happy to join Lille but Rangers were the ones blocking the transfer as they believed an offer of £17m – which is reportedly what the French team had offered them – just wasn’t enough for them to part with their prized asset.

Of course, with his ever-growing popularity, the Colombian forward is attracting a lot of interest from the Premier League as well but, as Daily Record explain, he is still committed to the Scottish Premiership titans and will gladly continue at Ibrox.

Either way, it will be interesting to see whether Gerrard can fend off all the inquiries as his in-demand player continues turning heads from abroad. Rangers have secured the signings of Cedric Itten and Kemar Roofe but retaining Morelos is a huge boost for them going into the season.

Verdict

Needless to say, losing Morelos would’ve been a big blow for Rangers but alas, it seems that the Colombian is set to stay at Ibrox for a while longer. This, without a doubt, will come as a relief to Gerrard for the time being.

But the transfer window is still open and we’ll have to wait and see what the future holds for the coveted forward.

A cinco rodadas do fim do Brasileirão, Coritiba demite Ney Franco

MatériaMais Notícias

Ney Franco não é mais o técnico do Coritiba. Ele foi demitido no fim da tarde desta terça-feira, após 30 jogos à frente do Coxa, que ocupa a zona de rebaixamento do Campeonato Brasileiro – é o 18º, com 34 pontos. São seis jogos consecutivos sem vitórias na competição, sendo cinco derrotas.

O treinador havia sido bancado pelo presidente Rogério Bacellar após a derrota para o São Paulo, no último dia 25, quando houve tentativa de invasão ao vestiário do time no Couto Pereira por parte de alguns torcedores. Na ocasião, parte dos conselheiros do clube queriam a demissão do técnico. A situação de Ney ficou ainda mais complicada após o empate do Coxa diante do Figueirense, em Curitiba, na última rodada. Marcelo Serrano, auxiliar de Ney, também foi demitido.

Contratado para substituir Marquinhos Santos em junho, Ney chegou a comandar uma reação do Coritiba no Campeonato Brasileiro, mas o rendimento do time caiu nas últimas rodadas. Foram sete vitórias, 13 empates e dez derrotas nos já citados 30 jogos entre Brasileirão e Copa do Brasil.

Tcheco, que comanda o time Sub-23 do Coritiba, passa a ser um possível candidato a assumir o Coxa. Ele foi a opção da então diretoria para substituir o demitido Péricles Chamusca na reta final do Brasileirão de 2013 e manteve o time na elite. Após a competição, ele retornou ao cargo de gerente de futebol.

Ney Franco, que dificilmente continuaria no Coxa em 2016 – seu projeto é ir com a família para os Estados Unidos – encerrou sua segunda passagem à frente do Coritiba. A primeira começou em 2009, quando não conseguiu evitar o rebaixamento do time à Série B, mas permaneceu no clube. Na temporada seguinte, o Coxa foi campeão paranaense e da Série B antes de Ney assumir como técnico da Seleção Brasileira Sub-20.

Tottenham Hotspur: Spurs enter negotiations with Inter over Tanguy Ndombele transfer

Tottenham Hotspur have entered negotiations with Inter Milan to sell Tanguy Ndombele this summer, reports say. 

Ndombele has struggled to settle down under Jose Mourinho this season and the Spurs duo have a fractured relationship which is seemingly beyond repair at this point.

According to Fabrizio Romano via The Guardian, Tottenham are in talks with Internazionale to sort out a deal for the club’s record signing in the summer.

Ndombele, 23, has largely failed to live up to expectations in his first season in the Premier League since joining Spurs from Lyon last year, as he has only started 12 games in the English top flight so far.

While Mourinho claimed that he is confident the Frenchman can turn his form around, he seems to have changed his mind.

Although Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has insisted he is not up for sale in the transfer window, this turn of events marks quite a dramatic U-turn.

The Italian transfer guru claims the Lilywhites will accept €50m (£45m) for the French international, which is a fraction of the price Levy originally paid for him to part ways with Lyon.

Recent reports revealed Inter are prepared to try and prise Ndombele away from north London by using Marcelo Brozovic to sweeten the deal.

While Antonio Conte has made it clear that the Croatian World Cup finalist is considered surplus to requirements, it appears the Nerazzurri want to use Slovakian defender Milan Skriniar as part of a swap deal instead.

The Portuguese privately believes Skriniar is an ideal replacement for Jan Vertonghen, who left north London at the beginning of the week.

Ndombele may be about to follow suit, as Mourinho is fed up with the Frenchman’s lack of effort on the training pitch.

The transfer saga has rumbled on for several months and the only way it will get resolved is if one of them leaves the club. Skriniar is highly rated by Mourinho, who won’t be leaving Spurs anytime soon, and he may not get a better opportunity to trade the mercurial midfielder for another top-class player.

Tottenham fans, do you think Levy should sell Ndombele in the summer? Let us know down below!

Liverpool: Reds’ value increases by 19.3% to £2.26bn

The latest KPMG figures show that Liverpool’s club value has increased by a huge £365m over the last year, which is more than any other club on the planet.

The latest financial figures were released on Tuesday and the Reds were arguably the biggest winners. Their value increase stands at 19.3% from where they were last year and they are now said to be worth £2.26bn. In the process, they also jumped ahead of both Chelsea and Manchester City and they now sit fifth in the worldwide table. They aren’t the number one in England, though, as Manchester United sit in second position. [via KPMG Football Benchmark]

The team’s success on the pitch is likely to have had a big impact on their positive market value movement. The Reds are the reigning European champions and have reached the Champions League final in back-to-back seasons, whilst they currently lead the Premier League by a huge 25 points. Undoubtedly, those achievements have had a strong impact on the club’s financial position.

The Reds have come a long way in the past 10 years. A decade ago, they were on the edge of administration before FSG took control of the club – they are now the fifth most valuable football club on Earth. The current owners have received their fair share of criticism in the past but perhaps they deserve more credit for the work they have done in making Liverpool a financial as well as footballing powerhouse.

Reds fans, how significant is this news for the club? Let us know what you think by commenting below!

Sol Campbell believes Sunderland need to return to basics to move up the table

This article is part of Football FanCast’s Pundit View series, which provides opinion and analysis on recent quotes from journalists, pundits, players and managers…

Sol Campbell spoke highly of Sunderland as a club after his team were defeated by the Black Cats on Saturday, but stressed that their aim of promotion won’t be easy to achieve.

What did he say?

The former Newcastle defender spoke of the good aspects of the club which should make them a big contender in the promotion race, but in a division as wide open as League One it won’t be straight-forward.

Sunderland have stuttered so far due to a lack of consistency and even a new manager hasn’t helped too much, with two wins matched by two defeats in league competition under Phil Parkinson.

So far the Black Cats’ home and away form has been a contrast, something which hasn’t been lost on Campbell, whose side were only narrowly beaten at the Stadium of Light despite one win in 16 league games this year.

Speaking post-match, as reported by the Sunderland Echo, he said:”They have the budget, they have the fans, the home form will definitely get them there, that is key if you want to get in the play-offs and have a chance of going up.”Where they want to be, they aren’t now, it doesn’t really match up with the facilities, the set-up, Sunderland need to be higher than where they are.”But there are no gimmes, you have to work and earn it. You have to earn the right to play before you can start bossing the game.”Watch League 1 Live Streams With StreamFootball.tv BelowBack to basicsThere have been positives and negatives to Sunderland since Parkinson took over, but he has simplified things and instilled his hard-working values already.Those are the kind of basics Campbell is referring to, and has been reflected in the two clean sheets Sunderland have kept in his two home games.If the team can maintain the positive home form Campbell alludes to then they will have a great base to build a promotion campaign, and if Parkinson can settle on his favoured team soon that will help massively.Sunderland are still struggling on the goal front with the exclusion of the home match against Tranmere a couple of weeks ago, and therefore the familiarity of a regular starting could be of benefit to the team.Will Grigg has scored just one of their 22 league goals, a record which is just the ninth-best in the league, and suggests their place outside the play-off places is well deserved.The team has lacked discipline, too, with 30 yellow cards and two red cards picked up. If Parkinson can get that right, and improve the lack of quality which leaves their pass accuracy at a lowly 72%, then Sunderland should begin to move up the table.

Man Utd boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must unleash attacking trio against Norwich

This article is part of Football FanCast’s Opinion series, which provides analysis, insight and opinion on any issue within the beautiful game, from Paul Pogba’s haircuts to League Two relegation battles…

After securing a creditable 1-1 draw with leaders Liverpool last time out in the Premier League, Manchester United arguably face just as important a test when they take on Norwich on Sunday afternoon.

The Red Devils’ game-plan against Jurgen Klopp’s side was designed to completely nullify the Reds’ attacking threats, and by and large, they succeeded. But for a late equaliser from Adam Lallana, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men would have walked away from the contest at Old Trafford with all three points.

But against the newly-promoted Norwich, United will surely have to adopt a more attacking approach. Sitting back and hitting the reigning Champions League holders on the counter-attack is all well and good, but against a Canaries side that have already conceded 21 goals this season, nothing less than going all-out will do.

And with that in mind, here’s a look at how the Red Devils could line-up for the clash at the weekend.

After being rested for the game against Partizan Belgrade in the Europa League on Thursday night, David de Gea will undoubtedly reclaim his place in between the sticks. In front of him, the Red Devils may persist with the back-three that served them so well against Liverpool, and so Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof and Marcos Rojo are likely to take on the centre-back duties.

At wing-back, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Ashley Young will continue their responsibilities at flying forward and getting back in equal measure. Further forward, is where things could potentially get very interesting for United. The return of Anthony Martial from injury has give Solskjaer a welcome and much-needed boost in terms of options up front, and that could well pave the way to a subtle change in tactics too.

Daniel James has been one of the highlights and silver linings of United’s season thus far, netting three times already. But with Marcus Rashford finding his goal-scoring touch last time out against Liverpool, Solskjaer may well be tempted to field all three in the same line-up.

That could potentially see the United boss go for a 5-2-3 formation instead of the 5-3-2 seen at Old Trafford last weekend. A central midfield duo of Fred and Scott McTominay could provide the solidity in the middle of the park, with Rashford from the left, James on the right, and Martial straight through the middle.

It is an attack brimming with potential and one that will no doubt excite United fans.
