Neymar Jnr insists leaving Barcelona for Paris St Germain will not be the end of his football career after scoring a goal at his debut game. The Brazil international made an impact in his first game since completing a world-record 222million euro (£200.6million) move with a goal and an assist as PSG cruised to a 3-0 win at Guingamp. Critics argued that leaving Barcelona for Ligue 1 is a set back, but the 25-year-old is happy to prove them wrong and his content at the moment. “I knew it would be very difficult to leave Barca but I am very happy to be here,” he said in quotes reported by L’equipe, “People think that you die after leaving Barca, but no, it’s the opposite. I’m more alive than ever, I play, I’m very happy. The country, the city and the team change, but football is the same.” After Jordan Ikoko’s own goal gave PSG a 52nd-minute lead, Neymar brilliantly set up Edinson Cavani to make it 2-0 before opening his account for the club with a simple close-range finish with eight min...

United Made An Offer That 'cannot be refused' For Monaco Playmaker

-
Manchester United have made an offer that “cannot be refused” to swoop Monaco star, Bernardo Silva this summer according to report.
Silva has been heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford over the last six months, while Manchester City are also said to be in the running for the player.

French outlet Le10Sport recently claimed that Jose Mourinho has made the 22-year-old a priority target, while Canal+ reported that United had moved ahead of la liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona after having long talks with the player.
However, France Football now suggest that United have made a bid “that cannot be refused” to sign the Portugal international as reported in the Express.
Mourinho is reported to have a £200m transfer budget this summer and is looking forward to completely strengthen a United side that has been struggling to collapse the opposition, mostly at home, this season.
With the possibility of Champions League football next season, if United eventually beat Ajax in the Europa League final on Wednesday, parts of the Old Trafford team need a greater stature and Bernardo Silva would be an additional welcome to the squad. 

Silva revealed this week that he would be open to leaving the French champions, despite being contracted until 2020.
“I am finishing my third season in Monaco, who gave me the opportunity to play at a higher level,” Silva told Portuguese TV station SIC Noticias.
“But of course, every player dreams of playing for the best teams and in the best divisions one day.
“I’m no exception.”

Diego Costa demands Chelsea exit

Chelsea striker Diego Costa has expressed his disapproval concerning the club's treatment of him this summer and said he is “not a criminal” as he hope for a move to Atletico Madrid. Costa claims he was told he was not wanted by the Italian manager Antonio Conte via text message in the summer, has yet to exit Stamford Bridge but did not return from his post-season break. The 28-year-old said he was happy at the club until Conte made it clear he had no future in his team, and now wants to return to his former club he left in 2014 before joining Chelsea. Costa said he is yet to report for training as he does not want to train with the Chelsea's reserves, and is enjoying his stay in Brazil and paying club fines until his future is decided.  “I am waiting for Chelsea to set me free. I didn’t want to leave. I was happy. When the manager does not want you, you have to go,” he told the Daily Mail. “In January, things happened with the coach. I was on the brink of renewing my contract ...

Mike Ashley admits Newcastle errors; regrets on Allardyce and stadium

Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley opened up that his naivety made him make some "unacceptable" decisions when he first took over the club.  In an exclusive interview with  Sky Sports , which will be aired on Sunday evening’s ‘Mike Ashley: Speaks Direct’ special on Sky Sports Premier League at 7pm, the 52-year-old directly disclosed all, following the marking of his 10 years at St James’ Park. Ashley declared that he was too fast to sever all ties Allardyce had with the players in 2008 after buying the club, and also should not have renamed the stadium to the Sports Direct Arena, but that all his wrong actions were in hindsight. When asked to give a description of himself throughout his 10-year work, Ashley told David Craig: “Very naïve in the beginning. In the middle I thought I was just about beginning to get my arms around it a little bit, we had a manager on an eight-year contract [Alan Pardew]. “We had the finance right, talked about investing in the training ground and ...

Antoine Griezmann to consider Man Utd offer after U-turn

-

Atletico Madrid attacker Antoine Griezmann is reportedly still considering an offer to join Manchester United this summer. The offer has been connected with a move to Old Trafford since the beginning of the summer and a possible twist at Atletico could provoke him to leave for the Premier League. A report in  Don Balon  claims the Frenchman would be willing to join United if Atletico decided to sell goalkeeper Jan Oblak to PSG. The 26-year-old was a target for United when David De Gea’s future was gloomy, is being tipped to move to the big-spending French giants and Griezmann believes that would show a lack of ambition on Atletico’s part and would proboke him to quit. The forward had previously stated that there was a ‘6 out of 10’ chances  that he would be playing in England this season while he also felt that he would be letting Atletico down by leaving now, given their current transfer ban. However, Oblak’s potential exit could then emit a bidding war for Griezmann, wh...
