Turkish giants Fenerbahce have reportedly come forward with an opening bid for Manchester United striker Anthony Martial.

The France international is now free to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with teams outside of England after entering the final six months of his deal at the Theatre of Dreams.

Martial's terms do include the option to extend until the end of the 2024-25 season, and the Red Devils have exercised their right to keep Victor Lindelof, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Hannibal Mejbri at the club for another 12 months.

However, neither Martial nor compatriot Raphael Varane saw their options triggered, and while talks are occurring with the former's camp behind the scenes, a new contract is believed to be off the table.

Man United, Dortmund 'reach broad agreement over Jadon Sancho loan'

Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund have reportedly reached a 'broad agreement' over a deal to loan Jadon Sancho back out to the Westfalenstadion for the remainder of the season.

The 23-year-old's Old Trafford career has been in tatters ever since he publicly hit back at Red Devils manager Erik ten Hag over his omission from the squad to face Arsenal in September.

Ten Hag told the media that poor performances in training were to blame for Sancho's absence, accusations which the England winger vehemently denied with a bombshell social media post, in which he claimed that he had been made a "scapegoat".

Sancho pinned the post to his X profile for a short while before removing it, but he has been banished from the first-team picture ever since, and neither he nor Ten Hag appear to be backing down in the stand-off.

Ange Postecoglou makes angry "integrity" claim over Eric Dier transfer

A miffed Ange Postecoglou warned the media not to question his "integrity" when asked about Eric Dier's absence through injury from Tottenham Hotspur's 1-0 FA Cup win over Burnley on Friday.

The England international - who has now entered the last six months of his contract at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - was not named in the squad to face the Clarets while speculation over a move to Bayern Munich heats up.

Dier is believed to have agreed terms over a switch to the German champions, whose move for the 29-year-old has been endorsed by his former Tottenham teammate Harry Kane, and the Bavarians now intend to push through with a January deal.

However, Tottenham still have the right to demand a nominal fee for the soon-to-be free agent while he remains under contract in North London, and the two clubs are yet to reach a full agreement over a mid-season transfer.

Leroy Sane has reportedly changed his mind about signing a new contract with Bayern Munich amid links of a possible return to the Premier League with current league leaders Liverpool.

The 27-year-old has been excellent for the Bundesliga champions this season, scoring nine goals and providing nine assists across all competitions.

The German international joined The Bavarians from Manchester City back in 2020 and signed a five-year contract worth in the region of £40m that would keep him at the club until 2025.

Sane entered the final 18 months of his current deal with Bayern this month, and due to his excellent form this season, it is understood that the Bundesliga giants are keen to extend his stay in Germany.
