    In addition to Juan Mata, the short-term future of club captain Antonio Valencia remains unresolved.

    The 33-year-old has endured an injury-plagued campaign and has featured only once under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

    Valencia’s contract is due to expire in the summer and United have until 1 March to decide whether to trigger an option for an additional year.

    And here's more from what was an emotional news conference with Neil Warnock at Cardiff yesterday...

    Media caption,

    Emiliano Sala: Neil Warnock 'flown by David Ibbotson'

  3. 'I think about quitting' - Warnockpublished at 08:55 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    Daily Mirror

    And finally from today's papers, the Mirror goes big on yesterday's news conference at Cardiff, when manager Neil Warnock spoke for the first time since the disappearance of Emiliano Sala.

    The Bluebirds boss said it had been the 'toughest week of his career'. And when he's been a manager for 40 years that really means something.

    Here's the latest on the Sala family's search for the Cardiff striker.

  4. Interest in Matapublished at 08:49 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    Juan Mata is at the centre of interest from a number of clubs in England and overseas amid continuing uncertainty over his Manchester United future.

    Mata’s representatives have been negotiating with United about an extension to his current deal, which expires in the summer.

    Although it is thought the 30-year-old former Chelsea man, who became the second significant signing of the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era when he moved to United for £37.1m in January 2014, would prefer to stay at Old Trafford, so far there has been no agreement.

    That has alerted some of Europe’s top clubs, who know Mata will be available for nothing in the summer.

    There is no suggestion Mata will leave immediately but he has started just two Premier League games under interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

    The first few TV replays, I thought it was terrible by Watkins. But the more times I watch it, I actually think he just slips. So my verdict: no foul, no pen. Also, brilliant free-kick from Sparkes for Barnet, but the "foul" to award it simply wasn't, Brentford player wins the ball cleanly. Draw about right and a thoroughly enjoyable game of footy!

    James, Brentford fan

    And here's a reminder of what happened in last night's thrilling 3-3 draw between Barnet and Brentford...

  6. Paul Scholes EFL talks continuepublished at 08:42 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    BBC Sport

    Talks are continuing between the EFL and Paul Scholes over the precise ruling about whether his 10% ownership of Salford City prevents him taking up a managerial or coaching post.

    Scholes has spoken to League Two Oldham about their vacant job but EFL rules prevent anyone having an interest in two clubs at the same time.

    The issue is complicated further by the prospect of National League promotion hopefuls Salford being in the same league as Oldham next season.

    Salford do not believe it should be an issue as Scholes plays no executive role in the club.

    Meanwhile, Pete Wild will continue in temporary change for Oldham's game at Milton Keynes tonight.

  7. Wenger exit cost £17mpublished at 08:39 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    Unai Emery took over from Arsene Wenger last summer and the Times has reported that it cost Arsenal £17m in pay-offs to bring Wenger's tenure to an end.

  8. Today's gossippublished at 08:35 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    Unai Emery has already said that Arsenal can only make loan signings during the January transfer window so his apparent interest in Chelsea's Gary Cahill must be over a temporary switch.

    That is the top story in today's gossip

  9. Emery promised summer fundspublished at 08:32 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    The Independent

    The Independent has two of the best lines from yesterday's news conferences, when Rafael Benitez said he could not commit to Newcastle beyond the summer, while Arsenal boss Unai Emery is hoping for some transfer funds in the summer.

    We're due to hear from Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri at lunchtime, but the first Premier League news conference of the day will be with Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe at around 09:00 GMT.

  11. Postpublished at 08:25 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    Alex Scott made the draw on BBC One with fellow BBC pundit Ian Wright.

    That's another Premier League scalp guaranteed in fifth round.

    Even if Wolves and Brighton win their replay next Tuesday, that's a maximum of seven top-flight sides that will be in the last 16.

  12. Man City tie a 'big carrot' - Flynnpublished at 08:18 Greenwich Mean Time 29 January 2019

    It was also a brilliant game when Newport County beat Leicester in the last round and they earned a replay against Middlesbrough at the weekend.

    The League Two side now welcome Boro to Rodney Parade knowing a home tie against Manchester City is the prize for the winners.

    And Newport boss Michael Flynn says the possibility of pitting his wits against Pep Guardiola would be "special".
