December 2025

United are in serious talks with Auxerre forward Lassine Sinayoko, whose deal expires next summer, aiming to secure a pre-contract for a free transfer at the end of the 2025-26 season while he features for Mali at AFCON. Having already added Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, Amorim still wants more attacking depth and values Sinayoko’s versatility across the front line. United are now focused on finalising personal terms this month, viewing the Auxerre striker as a low-cost way to deepen their long-term forward options.

De Zerbi explains Greenwood benching before Atalanta

Mason Greenwood (Marseille)
November 2025

Roberto De Zerbi benched Mason Greenwood for Marseille’s 1-0 win over Auxerre, citing sharpness and mental freshness rather than a physical issue. He stressed Auxerre wasn’t deprioritised for Atalanta, preferring Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Vitor Roque Vaz to start. Greenwood remains central, but rotation protected standards today carefully accordingly as needed without compromise or panic as required by context. De Zerbi said Greenwood and Gabriel Veron Paixao looked less incisive in recent sessions and matches. He managed workloads with Champions League intensity looming, seeking better pressing and decision speed from starters. Plan: reintroduce Greenwood promptly if training sharpness returns, maintaining options for Brest while sustaining tactical cohesion today carefully accordingly as needed without compromise or panic as required by context.
