Jesse Lingard get Shock Paris St. Germain Move

Image
In a stunning move, Jesse Lingard has left Old Trafford and will no longer play for his boyhood club, Manchester United. Lingard has been productive the season, scoring 6 goals and assisting 5 in all competitions despite mainly making substitute appearances. This was actually the reason for his departure, as PSG have promised him a similar role but with a chance to win the Champions League this year as well as a wage increase. The Parisiens paid United a fee of £32,300,000 for the English midfielder's signature.

Adnan Januzaj Returns to Old Trafford after Red Devils Trigger Release Clause

Image
He's the "boy who can do anything" and he's back at Old Trafford. After losing another academy graduate in Jesse Lingard, United acted swiftly to trigger the £34,500,000 release clause of Real Sociedad's, Adnan Januzaj. The 23-year-old winger brings supreme dribbling skills and playmaking abilities that will allow him to slot in as a backup on either wing and even centrally. He will likely be one of the first names called off the bench regularly for Manchester United moving forward.

United Sell Disgruntled Goalkeeper, Sergio Romero

Image
Romero has been a loyal soldier for Manchester United these past few years since being signed by Louis Van Gaal, but he has finally grown tired of being a backup. The Argentinean number one reportedly started looking for an exit since his role as Europa League keeper was handed to De Gea after a few bad games early in the group stage. Arsenal came knocking with a £15,000,000 offer and United accepted it. He is expected to step in as the first choice goalkeeper there. To replace Romero as backup, United have recalled Dean Henderson from his loan at Sheffield United.

Hadn't scouted him fully so I couldn't see his value. Just paid the release clause. Tbh it's more realistic given that it's unlikely Sociedad would just let a key player go midseason.

I'm 2nd in the table. Would've been 1st if I had won the Spurs game I just lost. 3 points back of the leaders, Everton.

I basically have every team in the league left on my schedule, about halfway through the season.
