According to the aforementioned publication, Jude Bellingham will only leave Birmingham City for Manchester United or any other club if the proposed team is ready to send the player back to the Midlands club for the next 18 months until the summer of 2021.

The player also has reservations about getting enough playing time when he signs for the Red Devils.

He is already a regular for Birmingham City this season and that would be almost impossible at a big club like Manchester United.

Bruno Fernandes is a top midfield target for Manchester United and they have already made several offers for the player but Sporting Lisbon are holding firm on their €80m valuation.

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has delivered a damming verdict on Anthony Martial and his inconsistent displays for the Red Devils.

According to the former Manchester United skipper, the club is frightened to death to sell Anthony Martial.

Gary Neville criticized the French international player shortly after his below-par outing for Manchester United during the Premier League clash at the home of league leaders Liverpool.

The ex-Manchester United right-back told Sky Sports that manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would give Anthony Martial enough time to prove himself worthy of playing for a big club like Manchester United.

Anthony Martial was heavily criticized for his performance during the Liverpool game at the weekend especially after he missed a very good chance for Manchester United while the scoreline was 1-0 in favour of hosts Liverpool who had taken a 15th-minute lead through Virgil Van Dijk.

The Frenchman and Manchester United were eventually on the receiving end of a 2-0 defeat with Mohamed Salah netting the clinching goal in added time.

Anthony Martial has scored 11 goals in all competitions for Manchester United this term.

Manchester United might need to delve into the transfer market to add to their attacking options especially after the injury to leading goalscorer Marcus Rashford.

After Marcus Rashford who has scored 19 goals in all competitions, the next goalscorer for Manchester United is Anthony Martial who has 11 goals in all competitions.

Manchester United could explore the loan option to get in a replacement for Marcus Rashford on the short-term.
