Manchester United splashed the cash to sign center half Eric Bailly from Villareal last year. This year, they spent a decent sum to sign another center back in the form of Lindelof from Benfica.
Not to forget, the Red Devils also have stars like Jones, Smalling, Rojo and Blind, who can effectively play in the central defense. Therefore, United do not need another center back.
However, reports are linking the Old Trafford club with a talented Ajax defender in the form of Matthijs de Ligt.

Last season, Davinson featured in 32 league games for Ajax and directly contributed in 8 goals (6 goals and 2 assists).
He is naturally a center half but can effectively play in the right back position as well. Pochettino mainly uses the likes of Toby, Jan and Eric in his central defense, so we can expect Sanchez to replace Walker and start in the right back position.
This season, the South American defender has played 2 CL qualification games for the Dutch side and scored 1 goal.

Arsenal boss, Arsene Wenger, is renowned for handing out first team opportunities to youngsters and under his guidance, many starlets have excelled over the years.

Liverpool Must Sign Hakim Ziyech and Not Naby Keita

Omer — Fri, 07 Jul 2017 07:18:40 +0000

Liverpool are looking to improve their midfield by signing a versatile star and by now, we know that their priority is to hire the services of Leipzig star Naby Keita.
Yesterday, we covered a report (via Amadou Makadji) claiming that the 22-year-old Guinean international has told the German side that he wants to move to Liverpool.
In my opinion, Liverpool should not pursue the signature of Keita and instead they have to secure the signing of Moroccon international and Ajax midfielder Hakim Ziyech. Like Keita, Hakim can also operate effectively in the central and attacking midfield.
Last season, Keita scored 8 goals and provided 8 assists in all competitions for the Bundesliga side. On the other hand, the 24-year-old Ajax star directly contributed in no fewer than 32 goals in the last campaign (12 goals and 20 assists).

As per transfermarkt, Ajax used him 21 times in the central midfield and in those games he netted 4 goals and provided 10 assists. As an attacking midfielder, he played 22 games and scored 8 goals and provided 8 assists last season.
Keita has got a huge price tag of 70 million pounds (BBC). On the other hand, as per Calcio Mercato, Ziyech is rated around 25 million euros ($28million).
Naby has only proved his talent in just one top flight season but Hakim has been impressive in the Dutch Eredivisie in the past few seasons.

2013-14 (Heerenven) – 11 goals & 10 assists in 36 games
2014-15 (Twente) – 17 goals and 17 assists in 40 games (2 games for Heerenven)
2015-16 (Twente) – 17 goals and 12 assists in 34 games.

In your opinion, should Liverpool sign Naby Keita or Hakim Ziyech?

Omer — Tue, 23 May 2017 07:05:58 +0000

Manchester United’s final game of the campaign is the most important game of the season as a victory over Dutch side Ajax in the Europa League final will book their place in the Champions League.
As far as Jose Mourinho’s team news is concerned, the Red Devils will be without key first choice defender Eric Bailly, who is suspended for the fixture after seeing red in the semi final.
In his absence, we can expect Phil Jones to partner former Ajax star Daley Blind in the central defense in front of Sergio Romero. Antonio Valencia and Matteo Darmian are expected to start in the full back positions.
Marouane Fellaini has a hamstring concern (PhysioRoom), therefore, Michael Carrick will probably start with Ander Herrera in the center of the park for the Old Trafford club.
As far as the attack is concerned, expect the likes of Mkhitaryan and Lingard to start in the wide positions and Pogba may start behind the main center forward in the No.10 role. Marcus Rashofrd should start as the lone striker up front.
