3 Celta Vigo president Carlos Mourino has confirmed that highly-coveted midfielder Gabri Veiga will leave Estadio de Balaídos when the summer transfer window opens. United retain a heavy interest in Veiga and would like to add the Spaniard to their ranks. The Peoples Person reported earlier this month that Celta Vigo are keen to offer the 20-year-old a new deal to see his current £35m release clause doubled. It seems that Celta Vigo have given up on this pursuit if Mourino’s comments are anything to go by. Los Celestes’s president said via The Mirror, “We don’t want him to leave,…

2 Manchester United midfielder Casemiro celebrated his appointment as captain of Brazil in style yesterday as he bagged a goal against Morocco in Tangier. The international friendly ended in a 2-1 victory for the African side, with goals from Boufal and Sabiri. It was their first ever victory over Brazil. The Moroccans proved that reaching the semi-final of the World Cup, one stage further than the Seleção, was no fluke as they were worthy winners of the bad-tempered tie. Casemiro’s goal had an element of luck to it as it bobbled under goalkeeper Bounou, a third howler of the night…

0 Manchester United striker Wout Weghorst has divulged that his stint as an auxiliary attacking midfielder came about after a private talk with Erik ten Hag. Weghorst also indicated that Anthony Martial‘s struggles to remain fit have been a big part of why he is a regular starter under Ten Hag. Since Weghorst joined United in January on loan from Besiktas, he has started all 18 games including the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle at Wembley. Weghorst has largely been unchallenged in his quest to retain a starting berth with Martial sidelined with a nagging injury since he joined the…

6 Manchester United legend Andy Cole has advised his former club to abandon their transfer pursuit for Harry Kane and instead focus all their efforts on signing Victor Osimhen. The two world-class goalscorers – Kane and Osimhen are at the top of United’s wishlist when the summer transfer window opens. Kane, who recently broke Wayne Rooney‘s record to become England’s all-time goalscorer, is out of contract in June 2024. There is uncertainty over whether the Three Lions captain will put pen to paper over fresh terms that will keep him at the North London outfit beyond the end of his…

1 Manchester United forward Anthony Elanga has described his reduced role in the team since Erik ten Hag’s arrival as “frustrating”. Elanga was a regular presence in the starting XI under former interim boss Ralf Rangnick but Ten Hag has used him sparingly. The Swede has had to be content with a place on the bench on most occasions with most of his appearances coming as an impact substitute or to see out the game. Last season was Elanga’s breakout campaign at United. During a disastrous period for the 20-time English champions, the academy graduate played 27 games, with 16…

3 Manchester United centre back Raphael Varane says he is open spending the rest of his career at Old Trafford. The World Cup winner has just turned 30 and is looking to make the most of the coming years, as he approaches the twilight of his glittering career. Speaking to GQ Magazine, the Frenchman was asked on where he sees himself when he decides to hang up his boots. “I will finish my career either in Madrid, Manchester or Lens. For sure I won’t do another club. But Madrid, it seems complicated to me. The most likely today is that…

2 The state of Manchester United’s midfield makes it quite obvious that manager Erik ten Hag needs to bring in further reinforcements if the team are to continue to challenge for the biggest prizes next season. United have a long list of players who are currently out with Christian Eriksen and Donny Van de Beek both out for the long-term while key player Casemiro remains suspended for three more domestic games. With only the much maligned pair of Scott McTominay and Fred along with loan signing Marcel Sabitzer to choose from, the top-four race has certainly got more tougher. Frattesi,…

2 It is well-known that Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is pressing ahead in his plans to find the perfect striker ahead of next season after practically playing the entire season without an elite goal-getter. Cristiano Ronaldo left before the World Cup under acrimonious circumstances, while loan signing Wout Weghorst has scored only twice since his January arrival. United No 9 Anthony Martial has missed 27 games this season through injury while top-scorer Marcus Rashford has thrived on the left flank rather than up front as a striker. United’s striker hunt The Red Devils have been linked with a…

2 Sunderland manager Tony Mowbray has compared Amad Diallo to Manchester United talisman Bruno Fernandes. Amad is currently on loan at Sunderland and has impressed the Black Cats boss this season. Speaking to MUTV, Mowbray praised the on-loan youngster and said that he has the ability to play almost anywhere on the pitch. “He can play wide, he can play inside, he can play deep. I think he can play centre-midfield for us in the Championship, you know. Just give him the ball and he very rarely loses it,” said Mowbray. The veteran manager then drew a comparison with United’s…
