Sam Allardyce has urged Manchester United to target Brentford striker Igor Thiago this summer, arguing that the Brazilian’s scoring output already proves he is the right answer for United’s attack.

Barry Tells Everton to Keep Ndiaye Happy Amid United Interest

Iliman Ndiaye
April 2026

Gareth Barry has warned Everton they must do everything possible to keep Iliman Ndiaye happy as transfer interest grows around one of their most creative players. Ndiaye’s rise at Goodison has made him a valuable asset and a possible target for bigger clubs. Barry said players like Ndiaye are hard for Everton to attract and even harder to replace. With Ndiaye under contract until 2029, Everton are in a strong position, but the message is clear: they need to build around him rather than entertain a sale.

Ugarte-Tonali Swap Talk Emerges as United Weigh Midfield Reset

Manuel Ugarte
April 2026

Manchester United are being linked with a possible summer move that could involve Manuel Ugarte as part of a deal for Sandro Tonali. This remains transfer speculation, not a confirmed club-to-club negotiation, but it fits the wider expectation of a midfield rebuild at Old Trafford. Newcastle retain interest in Ugarte, while United continue to be linked with Tonali. The key limit here is that no formal swap agreement has been publicly confirmed, so this should be treated as a developing rumor rather than an advanced deal.

Michael Carrick
April 2026

Michael Carrick said Manchester United will not rush Lisandro Martinez back for Leeds even though defensive options are stretched. Martinez has returned to training after his calf injury, but Carrick made clear the club will take a longer-term view rather than force him into a high-stakes comeback. Martinez is back on the grass and being assessed, while Matthijs de Ligt is still behind him in recovery and remains unavailable. Carrick said the decision will be based on readiness, not desperation, even with United chasing Champions League qualification and Maguire unavailable in the pasted version of the story

Materazzi Says Manchester United Made a Huge McTominay Mistake

Marco Materazzi
April 2026

Marco Materazzi has blasted Manchester United for selling Scott McTominay too cheaply, arguing the midfielder is now worth far more after his rise at Napoli. He described the 2024 sale as one of the club’s biggest recent transfer mistakes. Materazzi’s comments come after McTominay’s outstanding season in Naples, where he helped Napoli win the Scudetto and rebuilt his reputation as a high-level all-round midfielder. Materazzi said United let him go for a fee that now looks far below his true level.

Harry Maguire
April 2026

Harry Maguire has said Manchester United need a big summer window if they want to become genuine title contenders. He believes the club are improving under Michael Carrick, but warned that United still need better quality and more players capable of walking straight into the starting team. Maguire recently extended his contract until 2027 and tied his comments about England ambitions to his wider belief that United are moving in the right direction. He said the next transfer window will be decisive because the squad still needs strengthening if the club want to close the gap at the top.

Holland Tells Manchester United to Chase the Top, Not Just the Top Five

Steve Holland
April 2026

Steve Holland said Manchester United should not frame the run-in as merely a fight for Champions League qualification, insisting the club must aim to finish as close to the top as possible. He stressed that United’s standards demand more than simply looking over their shoulder. On the club’s Dublin camp, Holland said the staff have been speaking more about winning matches than tracking teams below them. He accepted that Champions League football would be a good outcome, but said United should always push for more, while Carrick also described the camp as a chance to reset focus, connection and spirit.
