man utd's alvaro fernandez-is-benficas next priority target

Man Utd’s Alvaro Fernandez is Benfica’s next priority target

Manchester United left-back Alvaro Fernandez is on the priority target list this month for Benfica, according to Portugese publication Record (page 11). Benfica recently entered an agreement with Santos to sign striker Marcos Leonardo. They agreed to pay €18m for his services.  Record claims that Benfica will now face Fernandez, who is presently on a season-long loan deal at Granada from the Red Devils. The club has discussed with Granada and United. They intend to sign the Spaniard for €7m while parting ways with David Jurasek. Fernadez has delivered less than 500 La Liga minutes for Granada which is struggling this campaign, but he began the 2-0 victory over Cadiz on Wednesday. Fernandez may leave Man Utd this winter Fernandez was with United during pre-season last summer, but he has not yet made a competitive appearance for them.  There was a suggestion that he would stay after Tyrell Malacia injured his knee, but United chose to sign Sergio Reguilon on loan from Tottenham Hotspur. Reguilon has today returned to Spurs after a break clause was triggered in his contract, but this is unlikely to change the position of Fernandez. Malacia is expected to return some time this month. Besides him, United have Luke Shaw and Diogo Dalot, who can fit nicely at left-back. Therefore, there is no surprise that Fernandez will be leaving the club. Experts also report that, Manchester may want a sell-on clause to be added as part of the deal. If Fernandez becomes a top defender in future, the Red Devils could directly benefit from his success as Befica sets high price tags.

Salvini defends ending Italian football’s Growth Decree

Italian Minister Matteo Salvini defended the discontinuation of the Growth Decree.  The tax break for Italian clubs has been scrapped amid claims that doing so will set back Serie A teams in the global transfer market.  AC Milan fan Salvini posted to social media:  “The objective of the Government is to help Italian football and above all get the best out of the youth academies. “For this reason, the Lega decided to stop the decree that allows foreign players to pay fewer taxes. “I am convinced this is a choice based on equality and common sense. The Growth Decree allowed clubs to sign athletes from abroad with a discount: an extraordinary help that lasted for years, which should’ve been an opportunity to relaunch our leagues. Making them more competitive and attractive. “That was not the case, so I am surprised by the reactions of the clubs: they make it look like the problem in Serie A is a sort of lack of universal benefits for players who came in from abroad. “I take responsibility for my decisions, as always. If other colleagues have different ideas, I invite them to discuss them publicly. “The good of Italian sport is above all based on football: I am open to any debate and proposal.”
