Manchester United have reportedly been left fuming after Sergio Ramos apparent decision to perform a U-turn on his future plans, despite allegedly indicating that he wanted to move to Old Trafford.

United were keen to sign Ramos this summer and were ready to increase their initial £28 million bid for the centre-back, but it now looks likely that the hopes of signing him are fading.

A United source told the Daily Star, "The club was led to believe he wanted to join them and was willing to leave Real Madrid.

"He was urged to make his feelings public to help speed up the transfer, but it now looks like he was playing a game all along. In the end it appears all he wanted was a new contract at Real and it looks like he's going to get one as well.

"It's not the sort of behaviour you'd expect from a player of his standing in the game. It's like he's betrayed United."

United have signed five players so far this summer - Memphis Depay, Matteo Darmian, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Morgan Schneiderlin and goalkeeper Sergio Romero.
