‘Media want to make it personal' - Amorim on his feud with Rashford amid Villa move
Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has blamed the media for fuelling his fallout with Marcus Rashford, who is now close to completing a loan move to Aston Villa with an option for a permanent transfer.
For Arsenal, Tel represents a potential solution to their injury woes, particularly with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus sidelined for an extended period. Mikel Arteta's squad could benefit from Tel's flexibility, as he can play in various attacking positions.
Arsenal have reportedly made contact with Tel's representatives, and the indications are that he's open to a move to north London.
However, the devil is in the details – the Gunners still need to iron out the terms of the loan deal with Bayern Munich, and must now be wary of a last-minute swoop from Ruben Amorim's men.
The Red Devils are in the market for a forward, with Marcus Rashford set to join Aston Villa on loan.
Rashford fell out of favour with Amorim, and even though this is a loan deal, the expectation is that his time in Manchester is done.
