According to Italian media reports, Manchester United are ready to pay 50 million euros (42 million pounds) and send French striker Anthony Martial to exchange Argentine atmosphere with Inter Milan. But the offer has been rejected, and Inter only needs money, not the director of the horse factory.
United's forward line this summer will certainly be restructured, with Ronaldo going to stay, Cavani's contract expiring and leaving, Martial and Rashford's future hanging in the air, and Mason Greenwood still awaiting a legal trial. New boss Tenhag will need to bring in new strikers, but Harry Kane and Erlin Haaland are certainly out of the way, with United's current options targeting Inter's Lautaro, Benfica's Darwin Nunez and Ajax's Alai.
Italian football journalist Marco Barzaghi said Man lenovo would exchange 50 million euros in cash with Martial's chips to exchange Lautaro with Inter. Last season, the 24-year-old Lautaro scored 17 goals and assisted 10 times to help Inter win the Serie A title, and this season has also scored 17 goals in 32 league games, as well as three assists.
Lautaro, who renewed his contract last year until 2026, has no intention of leaving Inter, and Manchester United's offer has not been recognised by the Nerazzurri, especially The Favourite Martial, who is not interested at all. Inter fans are even more ironic that with Martial's performance, if he is added to the transaction, it is equivalent to 50 million euros of transfer fees minus 20 million euros!
If Lautaro is sold, Inter will demand full cash transfer fees, denying player swaps, especially not Martial. Lautaro's agent said that if he left the Meazza Stadium, he would like Manchester City and Liverpool in the Premier League team, not Manchester United.
In addition to Martial, this week's Manchester United superstar C Ronaldo has also become the protagonist of transfer rumors. First of all, the British "Daily Mirror" said that Real Madrid intends to buy back C Ronaldo for 10 million pounds; another news from Italy's "Football Market Network" said that Bundesliga overlord Bayern Munich also contacted Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes and intended to introduce him.
Whether Ronaldo will join Real Madrid and Bayern remains to be seen, but the emergence of transfer rumors undoubtedly indicates that the agent team of the Portuguese superstar is indeed considering leaving the team this summer. As United's missed Champions League ending is getting closer and closer to reality, Ronaldo's farewell to Old Trafford is no longer alarmist. It is rumored that C Ronaldo may also introduce Ligue 1 tycoon Paris Saint-Germain, if you drive to the Parc des Princes Stadium, C Ronaldo and Messi may form a high-profile double partner.
Ironically, in the Manchester United first-team front, the only player who really convinced Cristiano Ronaldo seems to be Sweden international Anthony Erlanga. In an interview with United's official website, Erlanga praised Cristiano Ronaldo for his positive role: "You can see his record, and the number of goals he scored. He knows how to get to the top, so it's very right to talk to someone like that. We'll chat the day before the game, or even during the race, and you might see us talking in the warm-up. He would talk to me and Sancho about what he could do in the game to influence the outcome. It's important to have someone like that in the team, he's a player I respect, I talk to him, I ask him for advice, it's so special to be able to work with him."
