Former Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata has just signed for Western Sydney Wanderers. In an interview published back in May, Mata told Manchester United club media that he had no plans to retire from playing football after leaving J-League club Vissel Kobe. Now he has taken his career Down Under, to Australia, in an attempt to win another league title in a different country. The update came from trans... »
After Rasmus Hojlund’s injury setback was announced in the summer, Manchester United decided to keep Ethan Wheatley as forward coverage until ‘at least’ January – rather than loaning him out. The 18-year-old has yet to be utilised in the first-team this campaign, though, having spent the entirety of last Sunday’s Liverpool defeat watching on from the substitutes’ bench at Old Trafford. Wheatley has three s... »
Bruno Fernandes has already written Manchester United out of any potential title race after just three Premier League matches. While, of course, he’s likely just confirming what everyone is already thinking, fans would perhaps prefer to see their club captain set the bar as high as possible. If he doesn’t believe they can do it, why would anyone else in the squad? It comes after the Red Devils sustained two... »
Exchanges between co-commentators Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher often circulate on social media after Manchester and Liverpool matches, and, in recent years, it’s the former Red Devils skipper who’s left looking the most dejected. Yesterday proved no different, either, after Arne Slot’s first competitive meeting with Erik ten Hag in England culminated with the Merseyside outfit cruising to a 3-0 win. Lui... »
Erik ten Hag must address a familiar defensive pattern that has cost them in the first half at Old Trafford against Liverpool. The Red Devils boss will be frustrated that his defence has conceded two goals in the first half leaving his side with a lot to do in the second half. United looked solid initially in the opening half but similar defensive errors have emerged. Last week the Red Devils conceded a lat... »
Manchester United supporters in attendance at Old Trafford are growing increasingly frustrated at how the clash with Liverpool is unfolding in front of them. Luis Diaz was gifted two quickfire goals from Casemiro, whose first-half performance was so dismal that he was replaced by 19-year-old debutant Toby Collyer at the interval, having lost possession 13 times – the most of any player – in 45 minutes. Mome... »
Manchester United have finally announced the signing of their fifth acquisition of the summer, Manuel Ugarte. After spending almost the entirety of the window negotiating with Paris Saint-Germain, the clubs eventually made a breakthrough last week when agreeing to a £42 million fixed fee plus £4.2m in performance-based add-ons. Manu @ManUtd Welcoming a new face in M16: @ManuUgarte8 #MUFC — Manchester United... »
Jadon Sancho faces a race against time to seal his desired transfer away from Manchester United. As it stands, it looks as though another loan is the most likely outcome, but this one would presumably include an obligation to buy rather than what United agreed with Borussia Dortmund last January. Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Chelsea have just submitted their opening proposal to try and welcome Sancho ... »
Several Manchester United players will be in action for their countries during August’s international break. One player set to be involved is Morocco international Noussair Mazraroui, who will be taking part in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The new signing has settled in quickly at right-back, after starting in the first two Premier League games of the season. Mazraroui is one of Morocco’s star play... »
