MAN UTD WILLING TO OUTBID REAL MADRID IN DANILO CASH BATTLE

Manchester United are refusing to step aside in the race for Porto fullback Danilo.

The Brazilian is keen on joining Real Madrid ahead of United, but hasn't shut the door on a move to Old Trafford this summer.

Danilo's representative Bruno Misorelli has held talks with United about his situation and knows their manager Louis van Gaal is eager to sign him this summer.

With Real unwilling to meet Danilo's €50 million buyout clause, United are still favoured in the race as the Premier League giants are prepared to pay over the odds for the defender.

Real believe a price in the region of €20 million is more realistic with Danilo's contract expiring in 2016.

Record says United could have a deal done before the end of the season such is their willingness to meet the player's buyout clause.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn

Headmaster Pep Guardiola injects new rules into City camp; bans mobile phones

It's safe to say Pep is a perfectionist and also a headmaster, lol. But seriously, Pep has no intentions to drop his standards after a record-breaking 2017/18 season. He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
