- Good day buddies, welcome to another episode of sport update, i remain your host
. Good news and at same time bad news for Manchester united. Currently now, Nemanja Matic has withdrawn from Serbia's squad for their upcoming Nations League matches against Montenegro and Romania. Matic is very instrumental and has proven his impact buy contributing massively to the United and Serbia midfield. He played the whole 90 mins in the Manchester United game against Newcastle and his versatile strengthen was proven and tested.
- According to source, Matic has since pulled out, though, and returned to his club's training complex for treatment on an unspecified injury. It remains to be seen whether Matic will be fit to face former club Chelsea on October 20. Jose Mourinho will be desperate to have a proven performer available to him for a crunch clash at Stamford Bridge. The Portuguese finds himself under severe pressure at Old Trafford as he prepares for a return to familiar surroundings in west London.
Will be a big blow if he misses out of the Manchester United squad that will face Chelsea F.c. Mourinho will be desperate to see Matic get back to the game ahead. Will get us updated on the required outcome.
- From Information reaching me, Chelsea f.c management are now trying to convince Eden Hazard to stay at the club. They want to make sure they tie him down in order to kill the interest of those who are suitors. Hazard currently has two years left in his current deal and the west London club are hopeful of agreeing new terms.
Chelsea were in talks with Hazard over a new deal last season but those discussions were put on hold amid interest from Real Madrid. After scoring his eighth goal of the season in the 3-0 win at Southampton on Sunday, Hazard admitted he was torn between his dream of playing for Real or sticking at Stamford Bridge.
