man united latest news: Matthijs de Ligt injury update

Matthijs de Ligt Ruben Amorim has said he expects Matthijs de Ligt to be fit for Manchester United’s Premier League clash against Wolves on Monday night. For the 1-1 draw with West Ham on Thursday, De Ligt was one of three players to drop out of the Man Utd team that started the 2-1 win over Crystal Palace a few days prior. Though unlike Leny Yoro and Mason Mount who were introduced in the second half as part of Amorim’s much criticised substitutions, the Dutchman was not named in the matchday squad at all. As a result, De Ligt missed his first Premier League minutes of the season with a knock that is not expected to keep him sidelined for too long. "It's a small thing,” Amorim told Sky Sports. “I expect to have him in the next game.” Amorim added that the loss of De Ligt...

Amorim: Sesko has 'struggled' since Man Utd move Ruben Amorim has admitted Benjamin Sesko has "struggled" since his summer move to Manchester United, following criticism directed at the striker from former defender Gary Neville. Sesko has scored two goals in 11 games following his £73.7 million ($97m) move from RB Leipzig.After a frustrating game in the 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest, during which the 22-year-old managed just 21 touches in 90 minutes, Neville said he "wants to see more" from the Slovenian, who he also described as "awkward." Asked about the comments, Amorim accepted Sesko has found it tough at United. But, ahead of the trip to Tottenham on Saturday, he says he's confident the youngster will be a success in the Premier League."Of course, nobody likes to hear, but ...

Man United Man United loanee unlikely to return to Old Trafford England welcome Wales to Wembley for an international friendly on Thursday night.

One player that could start against Wales is forward Marcus Rashford, who has been included in the squad after scoring in England’s win over Serbia in Belgrade last month. The forward has been enjoying a good run of form for Barcelona of late, and it has now emerged that he is unli...

Man United eyeing move to sign Brentford Midfielder Manchester United’s recruitment team appear to be casting their net widely as they prepare for another pivotal transfer window. According to Caught Offside, the club have placed Brentford’s highly regarded Ukrainian midfielder Yehor Yarmoliuk on their list of summer 2026 targets, with Tottenham Hotspur also firmly in the race. This development underscores United’s ongoing commitment to strengthening their midfield under manager Ruben Amorim. For a side looking to close the gap on the Premier League’s top contenders, pursuing emerging talent such as Yarmoliuk makes strategic sense. Yarmoliuk, only 21, has been one of Brentford’s standout performers since breaking into their first team. His blend of defensive composure and...

news on man united: Jadon Sancho

Jadon Sancho Manchester United are ready to extend Jadon Sancho’s contract to prevent him from leaving for free. One of the most intriguing story of this summer was Jadon Sancho. Last year, he had a public quarrel with Erik ten Hag, and after that, his loan spell at Chelsea did not turn into a permanent deal. This time, the situation became more difficult after the arrival of Ruben Amorim. Sancho did not get a single minute in the first team and was completely out of the team. Manchester United were clear from the beginning that they needed to get rid of Sancho, but the task was not so easy. Teams like Borussia Dortmund, Juventus and Roma were interested, but no one dared to accept his salary and transfer fee, and this proved to be the biggest obstacle. Eventually, on ...

man united football news: Amorim plans team bonding trips

Ruben Amorim Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim is reportedly exploring the option of taking his players on overseas bonding trips during the season amid gaps in their schedule. The Red Devils were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by League Two Grimsby last week having also failed to qualify for Europe last season. United's reduced fixture schedule means they face just one midweek game before Christmas – a home match against West Ham on December 3. The club is therefore looking at ways to use the extra preparation time effectively, as reported by The Sun. United's schedule leaves as many as eight days between league games, giving Amorim the chance to plan short overseas camps. Amorim believes short training camps abroad, in destinations such as Portugal's Algarve or the Middle Ea...

Man Utd: Fernandes scores in 3-2 Win Over Burnley

Man United Manchester United needed every ounce of composure from captain Bruno Fernandes to snatch victory against Burnley in a pulsating Premier League clash at Old Trafford. The Portuguese midfielder converted an injury-time penalty to seal a 3-2 win that highlighted both United’s attacking flair and their defensive fragility.For manager Ruben Amorim, it was a result that kept momentum building, but the manner of the victory will also provide food for thought. United’s recurring problems between the posts nearly cost them dearly again. Altay Bayindir, deputising in goal, was culpable for Burnley’s second equaliser. His handling error gifted Jaidon Anthony a simple finish, bringing the visitors level and threatening to take two precious points from United’s grasp. Earlier i...

Man United Napoli and Manchester United have agreed a deal for Rasmus Hojlund to join the Serie A champions on loan with a conditional obligation to buy him next summer. It is up to the Dane, who had said earlier this summer that he wanted to stay at Old Trafford, if he agrees to move to Napoli. But United have accepted a package that includes a €6m loan fee and a €44m clause to complete a permanent move for the striker. It could bring an end to Hojlund’s United career, just two years after he joined from Atalanta for £64m, which had the potential to go up to £72m including add-ons. The 21-year-old has scored 26 goals in 95 appearances for United, but had a 21-game run without finding the net last season.Head coach Ruben Amorim has signed three attackers this summer, at a c...

The Red Devils suffered an embarrassing EFL Cup second-round exit on Wednesday, losing on penalties to fourth-tier side Grimsby Town, with Amorim making eight changes to the team that began the 1-1 draw at Fulham in the Premier League last weekend. Andre Onana was recalled between the sticks, but the mistake-prone goalkeeper did not cover himself in glory against Grimsby and Amorim may decide to recall Altay Bayindir - who has also endured a shake start to the new season - or Tom Heaton. Harry Maguire scored a late equaliser to force the midweek tie to penalties, but he could be replaced in...

Despite fighting back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Blundell Park, United suffered a 12-11 penalty shootout defeat after misses by summer signings Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha. Goalkeeper André Onana only saved one Grimsby penalty.The defeat was the first time United have lost a Carabao Cup tie against a fourth-tier team and it means they suffered a round two exit for the first time since 2014.

Amorim When a team changes manager and the dust settles following the initial hysteria, often one of the first questions to be asked is which players will benefit most from the new man's arrival. If a manager can start to get a tune out of an expensive recruit who has so far failed to prove their worth, they've instant credit in the bank from fans and those within the club's hierarchy. But there's a lot more to it than 'they played well under them before and so this time should be no different'. Take Erik ten Hag's arrival at United as an example. The Dutchman was keen to surround himself with home comforts, regularly targeting players either from, or who had spent time in, the Eredivisie. Yet, having inherited a player he had coached previously at Ajax in Donny van de Beek, he failed t...

Ruben Amorim Manchester United remain without a Premier League win this season after being held 1-1 at Fulham on Sunday. Ruben Amorim's United were left to rue Bruno Fernandes' wayward first-half penalty as they were pegged back at Craven Cottage. Rodrigo Muniz's own-goal put United in front on the hour mark, but Emile Smith Rowe came off the bench to rescue a point for Fulham. "After the (United) goal we were just thinking about the result. We were OK until the goal and then we were not smart in that moment," said Amorim. The Portuguese coach is under pressure to show improvements after a disastrous 15th-placed finish last season, but so far his new £200 million forward line of Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, who again started on the bench, is yet to fire.

Manchester United have agreed personal terms with Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens over a move to Old Trafford.

Amorim picked Bayindir for Manchester United’s Premier League opener against Arsenal, with Onana not even on the bench for the 1-0 defeat. Despite dropping Onana and then watching Bayindir made a crucial error for Arsenal’s goal, Amorim defended both players and suggested United would not be signing a new goalkeeper before the transfer deadline.

Although he isn’t officially part of the so-called ‘bomb squad’ with Jadon Sancho and fellow outcasts, the 22-year-old has become surplus to requirements at Carrington since the arrival of Benjamin Sesko. Ruben Amorim has made it abundantly clear by leaving the Dane on the bench for the duration of the friendly contest against Fiorentina, and then dropping him from the squad altogether ahead of the Premier League opener against Arsenal. In recent weeks, the former Atalanta star declared his intention to stay at Man Utd and fight for his place. However, the manager’s recent selections suggest that the striker might not be handed enough opportunities (if any) to ...
