​TRIBAL TRENDS - TOP 5: James wants Man Utd, not Inter; Bayern's Sanches looking for exit; Isco heartbreak before Real Madrid UCL final

It's that time of week again where we look back over the past seven days and check out what Tribal readers have fancied the most. Overall, we've got stories from across the major clubs including Liverpool, Manchester United and Barcelona.

The fall out from Ajax's Europa League final loss to Manchester United topped our most viewed article this week.

The Tribal feature analyses why the Amsterdam club have directed all their anger and resentment towards Red Devils manager Jose Mourinho.

Diario Gol has claimed Real Madrid James Rodriguez hasdemanded a move to Manchester United after it was revealed his club was planning on selling him to Inter Milan.

25-year old Rodriguez seems destined to leave the Bernabeu but will need either United to go above their €40m offer, or have Real drop their €60m asking price.

Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches has hinted that he may be leaving the Bundesliga giants this summer.

The Mirror reports that 19-year old – as nineteen year old's do – liked several Manchester United players Instagram and Twitter posts that were posted during the Red Devil's Europa League celebrations. It is understood that Bayern may be open to letting the Portuguese leave for the right offer.

Real Madrid midfielder Isco will be heartbroken after being informed that Gareth Bale will start ahead of him in this Saturday's Champions League final.

Given his rich vein of form in the closing stages of Real's La Liga winning season, the Spaniard has every right to be upset. It is has been reported that Real chief Florentino Perez is urging manager Zinedine Zidane to start Bale so as to appease his critics who say the Welshman is injured far too often.

Last but not least is another Tribal feature piece, this time detailing the case for why Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp should make a bid for Arsenal ace Alexis Sanchez.
