It has just emerged, that a current Manchester United player was in talks to join Arsenal back in 2015.

Manchester United have endured a miserable season but ended the campaign on a high note, defeating Brighton an💜d Hove Albion 2-0 at the Amex.

They missed out on qualification to any form of European competition but still have the chance to c🌠ompete in the Europa League next term if they are to defeat rivals Manchester City in the FA Cup final.

Evidently, it’s been a transitional season for The Red Devils, with m▨any new signings still bedding in and injuries taking t𓆏heir toll.
