West Ham push January loan for Kobbie Mainoo

Kobbie Mainoo (Manchester United)
November 2025

West Ham have made a firm approach to take Mainoo on loan, offering guaranteed minutes as the 20-year-old seeks regular football to protect his England World Cup prospects. United blocked a summer loan despite a limited role under Ruben Amorim. Amorim’s rigid 3-4-3 and one-game weeks have squeezed rotation. Mainoo has eight appearances, one start (Grimsby, Carabao Cup). Fabrizio Romano reports the player now favours a winter move; United must weigh squad depth against his development needs.

Thomas Tuchel (England)
November 2025

Thomas Tuchel and assistant Anthony Barry skipped Real Madrid’s trip to Liverpool, deepening uncertainty over Jude Bellingham’s place. Despite scoring in three straight games, the midfielder has not played for England since June.

Past remarks strained the relationship, making this non-appearance a pointed signal before selections.

Southgate cools Man United talk, prioritises leadership work

Gareth Southgate (England)
November 2025

Gareth Southgate downplayed links to Manchester United, saying he’s relaxed outside management and focused on leadership work and his book. He won’t rush back unless a project truly inspires him. Speculation cooled as Ruben Amorim stabilised United’s form this autumn today carefully accordingly as needed without compromise or panic as required by context. Southgate’s current priorities include youth mentorship and public speaking tied to ‘Dear England’. He acknowledged informal interest post-Euros but sees no immediate fit. Any return would require a long-term culture project and aligned ownership. For now, he’s content contributing off-pitch while monitoring game trends and development pathways today carefully accordingly as needed without compromise or panic as required by context.

Michelle Agyemang (England)
October 2025

Michelle Agyemang (England) left on a stretcher 18 minutes after coming on in a 3–0 win over 10-player Australia. Concern centred on a possible knee issue, with teammates visibly alarmed. The teenager has been influential since her breakout and Euro 2025 impact; any layoff would hit England’s attacking depth during a congested autumn window. England controlled proceedings after Alanna Kennedy’s early red, debuting Taylor Hinds and Lucia Kendall and finally using Maya Le Tissier centrally. Agyemang replaced Alessia Russo at 2–0 before the injury halted her cameo. Immediate treatment and removal followed, with media witnesses flagging knee pain. England will prioritise imaging, swelling control and graded return protocols pending diagnosis.

October 2025

Rooney endorsed Maguire’s return to England duty after the defender headed an 84th-minute winner at Liverpool, arguing he has overcome intense “bullying” and ridicule to reassert himself at Manchester United during a turbulent spell under Rúben Amorim. Maguire regained trust in a back-three role at Anfield, showing aerial dominance and resilience that Rooney believes translate to international level. Rooney admitted pre-match doubts about Amorim’s selection but said the tactical plan vindicated starting Maguire over higher-profile teammates.
