Manchester United threw away a vital home win against struggling West Ham, conceding a late equaliser from Soungoutou Magassa after Diogo Dalot had put them ahead, wasting the chance to climb into the top five and deepening frustration around their stuttering league campaign. United again lacked creativity and intensity at Old Trafford, with Bruno Fernandes ineffective and Ayden Heaven shaky in his first league start, while poor control of second balls from long deliveries infuriated Ruben Amorim, who blasted his side’s inconsistency and failure to kill the game after scoring.

Manchester United lowball opening bid for Olympiacos prodigy Christos Mouzakiti

December 2025

Manchester United have tabled a €28m offer for Olympiacos midfielder Christos Mouzakitis, but the bid falls short of the Greek club’s valuation, inviting Real Madrid, Arsenal and Brighton to intensify their interest in one of Europe’s most talked about young prospects. The Golden Boy Web Award winner has impressed with composure, athleticism and defensive awareness, helped Olympiacos win the 2024 UEFA Youth League and held his own in a full 90 minute Champions League outing, drawing praise from Xabi Alonso and prompting long term tracking by several top clubs including Brighton after signing Babis Kostoulas.

Onana snubbed from Cameroon AFCON squad in fresh career setback

Andre Onana
December 2025

Andre Onana has suffered another major setback after being omitted from Cameroon’s 28-man Africa Cup of Nations squad, despite coach Rigobert Song selecting four goalkeepers, capping a brutal spell in which he lost the Manchester United number one jersey and moved on loan to Trabzonspor. Eyebrows were raised when the Indomitable Lions’ roster dropped without his name, while fellow Cameroonians Bryan Mbeumo and Georges-Kevin Nkoudou were included, deepening questions over Onana’s international future after previous disputes and adding further uncertainty to a club career already drifting.

Fernandes hails “great player” Mount after Palace winner

Mason Mount
December 2025

Bruno Fernandes praised Mason Mount’s quality and mentality after the midfielder scored a low, late winner at Selhurst Park, insisting his team-mates never doubted him despite a difficult start at United marked by injuries, patchy form and limited goals or assists. Trailing to a Jean-Philippe Mateta penalty, United’s midfield surged after half-time, with Fernandes creating both second-half goals and combining smartly from a free-kick for Mount’s decisive strike, which he hopes will trigger a sustained revival for a player Ruben Amorim already values for his movement and finishing threat.

Deco explains why Rashford is thriving away from Old Trafford

Marcus Rashford
December 2025

Deco says Rashford “suffered” under the weight of being a homegrown leader at a struggling Manchester United, arguing that a reset at Barcelona, where expectations are shared more evenly across the squad, has allowed the forward to relax and rediscover his attacking instincts. The sporting director highlights United’s chaotic rebuild over the last five years and insists Barca specifically targeted Rashford’s versatility across the front line, adding that his desire to wait for their financial situation to clear so a loan with option to buy was possible shows how badly he wanted the move

Amorim calls out anxious Dorgu and demands calm

Patrick Dorgu
November 2025

Ruben Amorim has publicly challenged Patrick Dorgu, saying the 21 year old looks more composed and decisive for Denmark than at Manchester United and admitting he feels “anxiety every time Patrick touches the ball” as the full back continues to struggle for rhythm in a new role. Signed mid season from Lecce and used as a wing back in a 3 4 3, Dorgu has been blamed for lapses in boxes, with Amorim citing a miss against Everton and insisting he must relax, cope with pressure and will get time to develop alongside Diogo Dalot in a still evolving system.

Manchester United weigh huge move for unsettled Valverde

Federico Valverde
November 2025

Manchester United are preparing an offer of around £87 million for Federico Valverde as they chase a flagship midfield signing, encouraged by reports of a recent bust up with Xabi Alonso that has left the Uruguayan more open than before to the idea of leaving Real Madrid. Real are expected to demand close to £100m or point to his release clause, while United must persuade a two time Champions League winner and vice captain, who prides himself on playing any role for the team, to leave a dominant side and front a rebuild without guaranteed Champions League football.

Lisandro Martinez back in contention for Crystal Palace trip

Martinez is available again after recovering from the ACL injury he suffered against Crystal Palace in February, having returned to the bench versus Everton and now cleared to feature as United try to restart their European push from a congested mid-table. Amorim confirmed that if Martinez is on the bench he is ready to play, though his minutes will be managed after ten months out, with United hoping his aggression and leadership can steady a defence that has failed to win in three league games and has struggled away at Palace.

Ruben Amorim pushes for more wing-backs to mirror Amad Diallo profile

Ruben Amorim
November 2025

Amorim admitted United need additional wing-backs with Amad’s attacking punch, explaining that his 3-4-3 system requires profiles who can both run relentlessly and create, and that current options have struggled to impose themselves in the role consistently. Defending his use of Amad at right wing-back, Amorim highlighted the player’s speed on the ball, technical quality and flexibility to play between the lines, but accepted squad characteristics are not yet ideal and signalled that future recruitment will be aimed at perfecting his preferred structure.

Manchester City join race for Forest star Elliot Anderson

Elliot Anderson
November 2025

Manchester City have moved into pole position in a three-way battle with Manchester United and Liverpool for Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, who is now valued privately at around £100m after emerging as one of the Premier League’s most complete young midfielders. City scouts and decision-makers rate his versatility as a number 6, 8 or advanced midfielder and view him as a long-term piece to ease Rodri’s burden. Forest do not plan to sell in January, but accept that a major post-World Cup bid next summer could force their hand.
