Mourinho and Shaw Rift Sparks Transfer Race
Following Manchester United’s 2-0 win over Brighton, tensions between José Mourinho and Luke Shaw have reportedly reached a breaking point. Mourinho publicly criticized the English left-back’s performance during the post-match press conference, fueling speculation that both parties are ready to part ways at the end of the season. As interest in Shaw’s future heats up, fans are turning to Crickex Sign Up for real-time transfer updates and exclusive football insights.
According to The Sun, the conflict between Mourinho and Shaw has escalated beyond repair. Shaw was substituted at halftime during the FA Cup match, and Mourinho did not hold back in blaming the player’s attitude. Their fallout reportedly included a heated exchange during training earlier in the week. Sources indicate Mourinho has made it clear that Shaw will be offloaded this summer. Meanwhile, Daily Mail reports that Chelsea is closely monitoring the situation and could make a move for the defender.
Shaw joined Manchester United from Southampton for £31 million but has struggled to meet expectations due to a combination of injuries and inconsistent form. With just one year left on his contract, United may look to cash in during the summer transfer window. Unless Mourinho departs, a contract renewal seems unlikely. Shaw currently earns £70,000 per week, and his potential exit could pave the way for United to pursue Tottenham’s Danny Rose as a replacement. However, prying Rose away from Spurs won’t be easy, especially given his importance to the England squad.
In addition to Chelsea, several other Premier League heavyweights—including Manchester City, Arsenal, Everton, Tottenham, and Shaw’s former club Southampton—are all reportedly interested in signing him. The race is expected to intensify as the summer window approaches, with clubs keen to strengthen their squads with domestic talent.
With so many top-tier teams entering the chase, the coming weeks could determine where Shaw will restart his career.
