Ruben Amorim Manchester United renew interest in Agoume Manchester United are in the market for a midfielder this summer, and could turn to La Liga to fill that need. The Red Devils have been closely linked with Brighton and Hove Albion man Carlos Baleba, but they could be priced out of a move. It seems Ruben Amorim is keen to have someone through the door that can glue things together in the midfield though, and Sevilla man Lucien Agoume has emerged as a surprise candidate for a move. Agoume, who arrived from Inter 18 months ago, initially on loan, started Matias Almeyda’s first game on Sunday and scored a brilliant goal in their 3-2 defeat to Athletic Club. It was reported by Caught Offside that United had an interest in Agoume back in January, but the trail went rather q...

Daniel Farke Daniel Farke hails Lukas Nmecha’s ‘ice-cold finish’ in Leeds’ win over Everton Daniel Farke revealed he almost took the ball off Lukas Nmecha before the substitute’s late penalty secured Leeds a winning return to the Premier League against Everton. Summer signing Nmecha, a free transfer from Wolfsburg, held his nerve to bury his 84th-minute spot kick – just six minutes after stepping off the bench to replace Joel Piroe – to clinch Leeds a deserved 1-0 victory at Elland Road. Farke said: “I was a bit worried. He’s on the sheet for taking penalties, but as a substitute, he needed more touches and I was thinking of stepping in there and taking the ball off him. “Thank God I calmed myself down and he prove me right with an ice-cold finish. He deserves today to be in...

Rasmus Hojlund Manchester United’s new season did not start as expected. In the first ten minutes of the match against Arsenal, the team showed both energy and intention, but that lead soon disappeared. Altay Bayindir made a mistake in catching the ball on a simple corner, and Riccardo Calafiori scored with his head to give the lead. After this, United tried, and Benjamin Sesko was brought on from the bench by Ruben Amorim, but the equaliser was not found. Bryan Mbeumo created a chance with a brilliant bicycle kick, then tried to score with a header, but David Raya stopped it. When the match ended, only disappointment was clearly seen on the faces of Manchester United. More than this defeat, there was talk about Rasmus Højlund. Amorim left him out of the squad for the Arsenal match and ...

latest scores:Villa 0-0 Newscastle

Ezri Konsa Newcastle failed to score without wantaway striker Alexander Isak as they were held by 10-man Aston Villa. Villa played the final 24 minutes plus stoppage time with 10 men after Ezri Konsa was dismissed but with Isak missing - as he tries to force a move to Liverpool - the Magpies were unable to find a winner. Anthony Elanga and Anthony Gordon wasted their best chances during a dominant first half. Debutant Marco Bizot made a fine save to deny new £55m winger Elanga inside three minutes before Gordon planted a free header over. The forward, playing centrally in place of Isak, also tested Bizot as the Magpies failed to make their superiority count. Passive Villa failed to have a shot in the first half - the first home team to suffer that fate in a Premier League game since Fulh...

Liverpool Liverpool kicked off the 2025-26 Premier League season in style by beating Bournemouth 4-2. While the Reds showed their quality in the final third, a few defensive concerns were raised. Hugo Ekitike certainly impressed during his first Premier League outing, producing a goal and an assist on his Anfield debut. After being two goals down, Bournemouth battled valiantly to get back into the game and a brace from Antoine Semenyo brought the game back to 2-2. With the game firmly in the balance, Liverpool threw the kitchen sink at Andoni Iraola’s side and goals from Federico Chiesa and Mohamed Salah wrapped up the game for the Reds. While there were certainly lots of positives to take from the game from a Liverpool perspective, Bournemouth did highlight some of their defensive vulne...

Gianluigi Donnarumma Manchester United have reinforced their attack with three top signings this summer, and must now focus on improving things at the back. The Red Devils conceded 54 goals in the Premier League last season and Cameroonian shot stopper, Andre Onana, was one of their biggest weak links. To replace the African goalie at Man Utd, Ruben Amorim has set his sights on hiring the services of Italian international, Gianluigi Donnarumma. As per Spanish source, Fichajes, the deal to sign the Azzurri superstar from PSG is expected to be around £43.3million (50 million euros), and United are preparing the offer as they consider the figure a huge market opportunity.

Dominic Calvert Lewin Everton are stepping up their summer transfer plans as they close in on their next signing. The new season is now less than a week away, and David Moyes will be hoping to put the finishing touches on his squad with some new additions. Everton are close to signing Jack Grealish after the Manchester City winger underwent a medical on Merseyside on Monday. These are exactly the kind of signings that a lot of Everton fans would have been hoping for this summer under the new owners. The Friedkins were keen to land a marquee signing, and they finally look like they have got their man in the 29-year-old forward.

Crystal Palace Crystal Palace beat Premier League champion Liverpool 3-2 on penalties to win the Community Shield after an entertaining 2-2 draw at Wembley on Sunday, with goalkeeper Dean Henderson reprising his penalty-saving heroics from the club's triumph in the FA Cup final. Substitute Justin Devenny scored the winning spot kick, after Mohamed Salah skied the Reds' first penalty and Henderson — who saved an Omar Marmoush penalty to help Palace win its first major trophy against Manchester City in May — saved efforts from Alexis Mac Allister and Harvey Elliott. "They were 2-1 up, you would think we were out of the game," Henderson said. "The manager said we would get chances in the second half ... and we deserved that in the end."

Liverpool star is banned vs Bournemouth for Premier League opener

Ryan Gravenberch Liverpool will be without Ryan Gravenberch when they open their Premier League campaign against Bournemouth next Friday. The Netherlands international is serving a one-match ban after being sent off against Crystal Palace on the final day of last season. Gravenberch joined Liverpool from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2023 but was restricted to just 12 Premier League starts during Jurgen Klopp’s final season in charge. However, the talented midfielder soon became a key player following the appointment of Arne Slot and started all but one of the Reds’ league matches during his compatriot’s maiden campaign at the helm. Liverpool were held to a 1-1 draw by Palace on the final game of last season after wrapping up the title almost a month previously. The Reds were forced to...

Everton given boost in pursuit of Jack Grealish

Jack Grealish Everton have been given a boost in their pursuit of Jack Grealish as the Manchester City outcast appears not to be part of Pep Guardiola's plans this season. Daily Mail Sport previously reported that Fenerbahce were knocked back with an ambitious move for the England international. In June, we revealed how the Merseyside club were monitoring the situation with the former Aston Villa man, who would become a marquee signing as they mark their move to a new stadium. Now, an approach has been made over the possibility of a season-long loan switch for Grealish, who is thought to be on around £300,000-a-week at City. Those with knowledge of the season believe a move may not materialise until late in the window, given the belief that a number of clubs who are interested are yet t...

After missing out on Liam Delap and Viktor Gyokeres to Chelsea and Arsenal, respectively, Man Utd are fully focused on getting a deal done for Sesko at the moment. Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins is willing to move to Manchester United if the Red Devils fail to beat Newcastle United in the race for Benjamin Sesko, according to a report, but there are two other strikers that manager Ruben Amorim has in mind.

man united : Sesko wants old Trafford move

Benjamin Sesko Manchester United are increasingly confident of beating Newcastle to the signing of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko and believe the 22-year-old 'only want to join' the club, a report has claimed. The Red Devils finally made their interest in the Slovenian striker concrete on Tuesday, with a £73.8million bid, slightly less than the improved offer worth a total of £78.2m that rivals Newcastle tabled on Monday night. While the Magpies remain in the hunt for the forward as they look to secure a replacement for their wantaway star Alexander Isak, there is a feeling that United would not have made an official approach if they had not received encouragement from the player's camp. According to Fabrizio Romano, United's confidence in completing a deal has only grown ...

Although big things were expected of the versatile attacker, he left Molineux on loan less than six months later having failed to settle at the club.Three loan stints followed - two at former club Benfica and one at Villarreal - before he spent the 2024-25 campaign at Wolves. However, the 28-year-old was never more than a backup option. Despite racking up 29 Premier League appearances last season, just 987 minutes were accumulated.

Florian Wirtz’s first look at Anfield gave fans a glimpse of why the club made him their – and with add-ons potentially a British – record signing with some clever touches and interplay and almost the opening goal. Head coach Arne Slot believes the Germany international will replace the creativity they lost from the departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid. “I think there is always room for improvement in every department and we have added a few, in my opinion, extra weapons,” said the Dutchman.“Florian has a lot of creativity ...

Fernandes branded parts of the display at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday as "lazy." And asked afterwards whether he supported his captain's claim, Amorim insisted he doesn't have a problem with players pulling each other up as he continues his drive to improve the culture at Old Trafford. "I think I'm happy for the players to have that feeling," said Amorim. "It's saying that they understand the situation. So, it's a good feeling.

Tottenham ‘in talks to sign £44m ex-Premier League star on loan’

Joao Palhinha Tottenham's summer business under new boss Thomas Frank will reportedly continue with talks over what would be their fourth signing of the transfer window. Spurs have already moved quickly to reshape their squad ahead of the new campaign, securing a £55million deal for Mohammed Kudus from West Ham, and strengthening their defence with Luka Vuskovic and Kota Takai. The north London club have already missed out on one midfield target, Morgan Gibbs-White, who had been expected to undergo a medical before a dramatic U-turn saw him sign a new contract at Nottingham Forest last week. But it appears that setback has only accelerated efforts to add another figure to the spine of Frank’s team. Now, Spurs are in advanced talks with Bayern Munich over a loan deal for former Fulham sta...
