“I want to play as many games as possible this season”. I don’t know if he fancies to be back for that and put himself to be available for the team or stay on holiday.
Daniele Rugani’s agent says the Blues are interested in the 23-year-old Juventus and Italy centre-back.
The Manchester United winger quit the club’s pre-season tour after telling boss Jose Mourinho he was jetting to Paris to witness the birth of his child.
Maguire played every minute of Leicester’s Premier League campaign last season but rose to stardom during the World Cup.
The 28-year-old accepts he may have little choice but to leave after United chose to let him go ahead of Eric Bailly, Chris Smalling, Phil Jones and Victor Lindelof.
Alderweireld is wanted by Mourinho to add more steel to the United backline, as well as quality in possession.
“I know the club believe me – I’ve spoken with them, the manager, I’ve had discussions, meetings”.
“It’s an option. Yes, probably”, Darmian said of a possible Serie A switch.
“If I stay, I stay and I do what I did up until now”.
Manchester United are ready to sell Marcos Rojo to help fund their swoop for Leicester City centre-back Harry Maguire this summer, according to the Daily Mail.
“We made a couple of defensive mistakes, but with the ball we were unsafe, especially when fresh, our problem at the moment is to play 90 minutes, but for 65 minutes we were very good”.
Jose Mourinho’s side have so far played out draws with MLS side San Jose Earthquakes and Liga MX outfit Club America, before beating AC Milan on penalties earlier this week.
“If I came out and said what he said, they would question me and I would be criticised everywhere”.
With no agreement over fresh terms forthcoming, Alderweireld is set to move on as the Red Devils are expected to make an offer for the Belgian global.
Having not been picked for the now world champion France squad, Mourinho would have been relying on Martial as one of his big-name players in the run-up to the start of the season.
