Manchester United Boy Rejected before Transfer by Premier League Struggler Days

Manchester United managed to secure a last-minute deal for Sergio Reguilon on Deadline Day, thanks in part to Burnley’s prior decision to decline the opportunity to sign him. The talented Tottenham defender joined United on a season-long loan, featuring a January break clause, primarily as emergency cover for the left-back position. This move was prompted by injuries to Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw, leaving manager Erik Ten Hag in a predicament. After ruling out Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella, Reguilon emerged as the preferred choice to bolster the squad.

Following his stint on the bench during the 3-1 loss to Arsenal, Sergio Reguilon is poised to make his debut for Manchester United in their upcoming match against Brighton this Saturday. United secured the transfer by committing to cover Reguilon’s substantial £120,000-a-week wages, a financial commitment that Burnley, unfortunately, found themselves unable to match.

Man Utd to Face another Spanish Team in the Europa League

After drawing Sevilla, a champion in the Europa League, in the quarterfinals, Manchester United will now play a third Spanish team in a row. In the Europa League knockout stages, Erik ten Hag’s team has already defeated Barcelona and Real Betis. Now, they will play Seville in the last eight next month. United will play the winner of Juventus’ match with Sporting, the team that eliminated Arsenal on Thursday if they beat Sevilla in the next round.

In another match in the draw, Bayer Leverkusen will play Union Saint-Gilloise, the sister club of Premier League team Brighton, in a rematch of the Europa Conference League final from last year. Jose Mourinho’s Roma will play Feyenoord. Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen will play Union Saint-Gilloise. United will face the team that is known as an expert in the Europa League. Sevilla has won the competition six times since 2006. The Andalusian team’s most recent victory came in 2020 when Sevilla defeated United in the semifinals. (more…)

Manchester United Looking for Buyers


Manchester United’s search for investors is likely to result in the club’s complete sale. Following the Premier League giant’s announcement that they were open to outside parties purchasing a stake or the entire team, there are early signs that the latter option is more appealing to those who have expressed an interest. The Glazer family, who own United Airlines, is still open to all possibilities. The cost of re-developing Old Trafford or building a new stadium, as well as the possibility of a significant upgrade to the training facility will be enormous for now.

Even though the sums involved do not appear to rule out new ownership, some have wondered if that is the case. The situation remains to be in its infancy even though the announcement was made in November. Access to the club’s finances has been granted to those who have expressed interest and signed confidentiality agreements. It is understood that the situation, which is being managed by the Raine Group, a US merchant bank, will progress to a more formal stage within the next three to four weeks. (more…)

The Brutal Response of Erling Haaland to Man UTD Looks Very Different Due to Erik ten Hag

 

It can be said that Manchester United has been on a roller coaster in recent times but things have started looking up. They have been in form and looks like they are going to have a clear direction yet again under the guidance of Erik ten Hag. He appears to have brought in a clear vision and fair approach to the firm that is taken as tipping them as the contenders for the title in the first season they are in charge.

The team’s early signs under the Dutch manager seem highly positive and playing out under the background of the wholesale changes behind the scenes will revamp the set of Man UTD. While the Glazer family that wants to sell has spawned some uncertainty, Manchester United’s football operation suddenly appears to be much more coherent and smooth-functioning than it has ever been for a long time.

Erik Ten Hag: The Man United Manager Gives Update on the Future of Dean Henderson

 

Manchester United is not going to decide on the future of Dean Henderson until the end of the loan season with Nottingham Forest. He has been criticized by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the former manager for reneging on his pledge to put him as the top goalkeeper before David de Gea, describing the handling of the Norwegian as a criminal.

The graduate of the academy hasn’t spoken to Erik ten Hag who was refused training by Henderson out of fear that he will not be kept from joining Forest. The goalkeeping coach of Manchester United, Richard Hartis has always been in contact this season with Henderson. (more…)

                          AC MILAN JOIN MAN UNITED IN RACE FOR CODY GAKPO

Manchester United have been joined by AC Milan in the race for PSV Eindhoven forward and Holland international Cody Gakpo, according to Fichajes (h/t Manchester Evening News). The 23-year-old has been in fine form for the Eredivisie outfit this season. In the recent transfer window, the Red Devils were linked with a move for the winger. However, a deal did not end up materializing. Such have been Gakpo’s performances in the 2022/23 campaign that Spanish giants are keeping an eye on the forward. The 23-year-old is also expected to be on the plane to Qatar to play a part for the Netherlands at the World Cup.


Gakpo has already hit double figures for both goals and assists this season. In 18 appearances in all competitions for PSV, the Holland international has found the back of the net 13 times and given 11 assists. United signed Antony from Ajax in the recent transfer window for £85 million. The Brazilian has had a quick start to life in Manchester. The 22-year-old scored in his first three Premier League appearances for the Red Devils. Antony scored on his debut against Arsenal in the 3-1 victory at Old Trafford. Since then, the winger has had his ups and downs. However, the Brazilian has great potential. (more…)

VARANE KEEPS CLEAN SHEET FOR FRANCE

Manchester United star Raphael Varane was at the heart of the defence for France as they secured their first win in the UEFA Nations League this season. The Manchester United centre back was given the captain’s armband in the absence of the injured Hugo Lloris and he marshalled the France rearguard on the way to a 2-0 win over Austria in Group A1.

Varane has played five times for Manchester United in the Premier League this season and his four starts in the competition have yielded four wins. (more…)

MAN UNITED HAVE NEVER CONCEDED AGAINST SOCIEDAD BUT FACE OLD FOE THIS TIME

Manchester United get Europa League campaign underway this evening and face a favoured foe in Real Sociedad. The competition might not be the one Red Devils fans want to be in but it represents a good chance of silverware. It was the last competition that United won in 2017 and they start the tournament as one of the favourites. If they can get off to a good start against Sociedad, they could set up the rest of the group quite nicely. And they boast a fine record over the La Liga side as in four previous meetings (W2 D2), the Old Trafford-based club haven’t conceded a single goal.

This is the longest run they have against any side without conceding, and that could be extended to six games this term. The La Liga club have also never beaten an English team in six, so the history suggests Erik ten Hag’s men will continue their good form. But standing in their way and looking to end that defensive record is former Manchester City maestro David Silva. The 36-year-old represented the Citizens for ten years and won countless trophies.

TEN HAG BAGS FIRST UNITED WIN

Dutchman Erik Ten Hag has won his first game as the Manchester United manager after he masterminded the impressive victory over Liverpool on Monday night. Ten Hag was the architect as Manchester United recorded a 2-1 win over their arch rivals to kick-start their ailing season. The former Ajax Amsterdam had masterminded a 4-0 win over Liverpool in a pre-season friendly clash this summer and he was able to reprise the outcome when the top two teams in English football met earlier this week.

Manchester United have been perennial underachievers since the exit of legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson almost a decade ago and they turned to Dutchman Ten Hag this summer in the bid to reclaim their place at the top of English football. Things didn’t start well for Ten Hag and United after the first two league games of the season ended in defeats. (more…)

          MANCHESTER UNITED IN TALKS WITH TRABZONSPOR TO SELL AXEL TUANZEBE

According to Italian journalist Rudy Galetti, Turkish club Trabzonspor are interested in signing Axel Tuanzebe in the ongoing transfer window and are in talks with Manchester United over a possible transfer.Tuanzebe is a product of the Manchester United academy. The youngster made his first-team debut during Jose Mourinho’s reign as manager but has found it hard to carve down a regular berth in the senior setup and, as a result, has been farmed out on various loan spells in recent times.

Tuanzebe joined Aston Villa on a season-long loan last summer but cut the spell short in January to move to Napoli for the remainder of the campaign. However, the stint in Italy turned out to be a poor choice as he hardly saw any game-time with the Partenopei. Now back in Manchester, Tuanzebe finds himself out of favour under new manager Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman has brought in Lisandro Martinez to reinforce the backline. And with Victor Lindelof, Raphael Varane, Harry Maguire, Eric Bailly and Phil Jones ahead of Tuanzebe in the pecking order, an exit beckons for the academy graduate. (more…)
