Man Utd likely to sell Garnacho in the summer
Alejandro Garnacho was linked with a move away from Old Trafford during the January transfer window amid interest from Napoli but the Argentine winger eventually stayed back. The club, however, will look to cash in on the player in the summer transfer window.
Speaking to GiveMeSport, journalist Ben Jacobs said: “There’s still a feeling, even though it’d be a reluctant sale, that Alejandro Garnacho is a player that, on the books, could be very valuable, and in the same way that Manchester United would have considered a sale in January, it will be the case again for financial reasons in the summer too."

Man Utd and Chelsea find out Ipswich star's price tag
Ipswich Town star Liam Delap, who has scored 10 goals in the Premier League this season, has attracted interest from top Premier League clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea.
According to former scout Mick Brown, Ipswich are likely to demand a fee in the region of £40million. Brown told Football Insider: "It could be difficult for them to hold on to him. For these clubs who are looking to sign a striker, he’s going to be on their list. At the moment he’s a ‘could be’, ‘might be’ sort of player, but clubs are going to keep an eye on him and make a decision at the end of the season. He’s playing every week in the Premier League, but the question will be about whether he’s going to play regularly if he moves away from Ipswich. Is he better than Rasmus Hojlund? If the answer is yes, what price do you pay for Delap? Hojlund cost United around £70million – and to answer my own question, I think Delap is better, so it could end up being a huge fee. The interest in him comes as no surprise, and if Ipswich go down, he’ll be viewed as a sellable asset. I think they’d seriously consider offers of £40million for him, especially if they get relegated. They might decide they can’t afford to turn down offers like that, so the £20million they’d be making on him would go a long way towards strengthening."
Van Dijk gives uncertain update on Liverpool future
Virgil van Dijk, who is in the final months of his existing contract with Liverpool, is yet to agree to sign a new deal and extend his stay at Anfield. Amid rising speculations, the Netherlands star has provided an update on his future.
Speaking to Sky Sports, the 33-year-old said: "In the coming months we just have to give it our all. We are still active on three fronts and that is the primary goal I have in mind. I have very, very big plans in that area. Unfortunately, I can't talk about personal conversations I have with the club. We've been talking for a while and the only thing I can say now is that I love this club. I'm very calm about the situation. As long as I'm calm about it, the fans can be too. If there's news, you'll hear about it. For now, I really don't know where I will be playing next season, but again: I am calm about it."
Arsenal told hot-headed ex-Chelsea star would TURN THEM DOWN
Arsenal have been told any move to sign 36-year-old ex-Chelsea forward Diego Costa on a free transfer would be unsuccessful.
Speaking to Slingo, William Gallas said: "Diego Costa is a big character that can be good for your squad when you need the mood to be lifted. However, I could see him clashing with Mikel Arteta. He won’t fit in with the mood at the club and I think it would go the wrong way. Even though they need a striker. Chelsea fans would also be gutted. I think he would turn down the move because of his history there and how the fans would react."

I’ve had such an amazing time already.
“Let’s see what the future brings. But as long as I’m calm, I think the rest of the world can stay calm as well. When there is a definite answer on my future, it will probably be out. Then everyone can know. I’m quite calm about it."

Bournemouth manager Iraola dismisses Real Madrid links
Bournemouth head coach Andoni Iraola has brushed aside speculation linking him with a potential move to Real Madrid. The Spanish manager insisted that he remains committed to his current role despite reports suggesting he could be considered for the Madrid job if Carlo Ancelotti departs this summer.
"For me nothing changes really," Iraola told reporters. "You cannot control things that are spoken outside here (Bournemouth). I definitely don't pay any attention to these things. We focus on the next game and the situation is exactly the same as last week.
"I've been in this business a lot of years as a player and coach and know how these things work, what has importance and what doesn't have importance. The important thing this week is the game we play against Wolves. It's going to be demanding but a good chance for us to keep adding points."
