Manchester United could very be the next team to try and lure another Real Madrid player away. If rumours are anything to go by, that player could well be Welshman Gareth Bale. United manager Jose Mourinho [https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/jose-mourinho] and Ed Woodward believe that Bale is the perfect addition to their attack. They have prioritised a move for him ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo, Juventus’ newest recruit. Talks regarding a transfer have now reached an advanced stage. However, the choice lies with Bale on whether he heads to Old Trafford or not. Manchester United [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Gareth_Bale_2715979b-300x187.jpg]Gareth Bale The 28-year-old had been growing frustrated about his lack of playing time under Zinedine Zidane last season. Now, new Real coach Julen Lopetegui will need to convince him that he plays a big part of his plans. What doesn’t help matters is the fact that Real president Florentino Perez is eyeing the likes of Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Eden Hazard. It also transpired that Manchester United opted against making a serious play for Ronaldo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/cristiano-ronaldo-signs-deal-juventus/]. Even though it was clear that a move away from Los Blancos was inevitable. A return to the Premier League was certainly one of many options to be considered. But instead, the Red Devils decided kept their focus on Bale. Woodward harboured a strong desire to sign the former Tottenham winger since 2013. Admittedly, Mourinho is also an admirer and was keen to bring him to the club last summer. United’s manager is also interested in adding Chelsea’s Brazilian international Willian [https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-utd-transfer-willian-conte-14882612] to his lineup. 

Following the sensational news of Cristiano Ronaldo leaving Real Madrid, there
are talks that another Real star, Gareth Bale could be enticed away by

<strong><em>Manchester United</em></strong>

<strong>Brief History</strong>

Manchester United is regarded as one of the oldest football clubs in the Premier League. The team was formed in 1878, but under the name?Newton Heath LYR Football Club. It was only in 1902 that it was officially named Manchester United.

The Red Devils are arguably the most successful team in the Premier League. This was even back when the League was known as the Football League.

From 1945 onward, after the second World War, it was also the beginning of one of the greatest eras of Manchester United. In other words, it was the era of the 'Busby Babes'. However, in 1958, the rampant Busby Babes were halted in their tracks, by the Munich Air disaster, which claimed the lives of eight players. However, Matt Busby managed to rebuild the team once again.

Then, from 1986 to 2013, the next great Manchester United era began. Namely, the Sir Alex Ferguson era, where the Red Devils were dominant. Although they had a sluggish start, they came into their own in the 1990s.

Currently, after going through a few managers like David Moyes, Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho. Finally, the team has settled with United legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

<h2><strong>Premier League 2021/22</strong></h2>
The 30<sup>th</sup> season of the top flight professional English football, Premier League 2021/22 will take place from August 13 2021 to May 17 2022. After a not-so-thrilling title race last season against Manchester United, Manchester City emerged victorious for the Premier League title. The 2021/22 edition of the tournament is set to bring an equal amount of excitement, with Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United all in the mix for the title.

<h2><strong>History</strong></h2>
Comprising of four divisions until 1991, the top division of English football split up and all the teams in the top division, after multiple discussions with the football authorities and television broadcasters, formed the Premier League in 1992.

The competition format remained the same, with three clubs relegated and three clubs promoted every season, and the top four clubs in the Premier League would qualify for the Champions League.

The main reason for the change in approach was to bring in more money into the game. The first broadcast rights for the Premier League was to be won at ?304?million over five years by Sky UK. The Premier League is the most-watched sports league in the world, broadcast in 212 territories to 643?million homes and a potential TV audience of 4.7?billion people.

<h2><strong>Transfer Window</strong></h2>
The Premier League has two transfer windows- Summer and Winter, where clubs can buy players. The summer transfer window generally over two months long, which begins and ends before the start of the season, while the winter transfer window is the mid-season window, which lasts the month of January.
<h2><strong>Winter break</strong></h2>
The 2019-20 Premier League was the first season to incorporate a winter break, which has always been included in major leagues across Europe. This came up after much debate about the Premier clubs having a disadvantage in the UEFA Champions League over clubs from other leagues, who come fresh from a winter break.

In February 2020, the Premier League saw one round of matches played over two weekends, with five matches on the weekend commencing February 8, and five on the weekend commencing on February 15.

<h2><strong>Prize money</strong></h2>
Prize money is drawn from broadcast revenue - TV money - and a team's monetary health come the end of the season depends on how many televised games they are involved in, as well as their final position.

The prize money for the Premier League champions is around ?150 million ($182m), although it also brings with it many other financial rewards

Premier League 2021/22

Premier League 2021/22 The 30th season of the top flight professional English football, Premier League 2021/22 will take place from August 13 2021 to May 17 2022. After a not-so-thrilling title race last season against Manchester United, Manchester City emerged victorious for the Premier League title. The 2021/22 edition of the tournament is set to bring an equal amount of excitement, with Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United all in the mix for the title. Premier League 18/19 champions Manchester City lifted the trophy for the fourth time in eight seasons whilst becoming the first team since 2009 to retain it. History Comprising of four divisions until 1991, the top division of English football split up and all the teams in the top division, after multiple discussions with the football authorities and television broadcasters, formed the Premier League in 1992. The competition format remained the same, with three clubs relegated and three clubs promoted every season, and the top four clubs in the Premier League would qualify for the Champions League. The main reason for the change in approach was to bring in more money into the game. The first broadcast rights for the Premier League was to be won at ?304?million over five years by Sky UK. The Premier League is the most-watched sports league in the world, broadcast in 212 territories to 643?million homes and a potential TV audience of 4.7?billion people. Previous winners ?

Since then, he has remained with the La Liga giants after joining for a reported fee of ?77?million. Sadly, the first half of his debut season was plagued with injury. However, his form has picked up since then.

With <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cristiano-ronaldo/">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> in Juventus, Bale now has a chance to step out of the Portuguese star?s shadow. On 9<sup>th</sup> February 2019, Bale netted his 100<sup>th</sup> goal for Real Madrid in a 3-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

Most of his laurels were earned during his Real Madrid career, winning the La Liga title in 2016-17. He even guided Los Blancos to the 2013-14 Copa Del Rey and four UEFA Champions League cups.
