Manchester United could hamper Arsenal’s transfer plans with a move for one of La Liga’s most exciting wingers. Arsenal’s resilient defence carried them to their first Premier League title in more than two decades. However, Paris Saint-Germain showed them they still need a lot of work going forward to be considered an elite side. According to TEAMtalk, Arsenal want reinforcements on the left side of their attack and Nico Williams has emerged as one of their preferred targets. Manchester United in touch over Nico Williams It is claimed that figures at Arsenal believe Athletic Club winger Nico Williams is among the select group of wide forwards on the market capable of genuinely improving Mikel Arteta’s squad. The supremely quick winger, who is also an exceptional dribbler, was chased by Barcelona last summer. He snubbed the La Liga giants in favour of staying in Bilbao. The 23-year-old even signed an extraordinary 10-year contract. However, after a difficult campaign in the Basque Country, Williams is “once again assessing his options” ahead of the summer. TEAMtalk claims the Spain international is “open to transfer” and sources close to Williams have consistently relayed to Arsenal and other interested clubs that he “would be open to testing himself in the Premier League should the right opportunity arise.” Manchester United are also in the mix. It is understood the Red Devils are being kept informed of Williams’ situation as his representatives continue to assess the market. Manchester United open to signing new forward The Spaniard has struggled with injuries over the last two seasons, but when fit, he is a handful for defenders. In 2024, Jose Mourinho snubbed Lamine Yamal and insisted he is “more of a Nico Williams fan”. Earlier today, a Sky Sports report claimed that United could look to add a versatile forward this summer depending on the potential departure of Joshua Zirkzee. It was suggested that the Premier League giants are monitoring Morgan Rogers, Iliman Ndiaye and Lille youngster Matias Fernandez-Pardo. Williams is arguably a more exciting attacker than the aforementioned names. Questions marks over his fitness and the potential finances involved may prevent United from making a serious push for the Spaniard’s signature.

United in contact for incredible La Liga attacker who is “open to transfer”, Mourinho really likes him – report
Picture: Rashford fires immediate reaction after Barcelona opt out of permanent deal
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has reacted after news that Barcelona have opted against signing him on a permanent deal. Barcelona decision Earlier today, news broke that Barcelona have decided not to exercise the £26m option to make Rashford’s stay a permanent one. He spent the 2025/26 season out on loan with the Blaugrana, contributing 14 goals and as many assists as they retained their La Liga crown. Rashford expressed a clear desire to remain at Camp Nou, while Hansi Flick is also believed to have been in favour of keeping him. But Barcelona wanted to either buy him for £13m, which is half of what was agreed with the Red Devils. There were also suggestions that they proposed another loan deal. United made it clear that there was no room for fresh negotiations. Barcelona have now decided not to move forward and as it stands, the England international will return to United. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano states, “Barcelona will NOT pay €30m buy option clause for Marcus Rashford, expiring in 5 days.” “Rashford formally set to return to Man United but Barça remain open to new solutions, like another loan deal.” “Barça are open to discuss again if #MUFC open doors.” 🚨 BREAKING: Barcelona will NOT pay €30m buy option clause for Marcus Rashford, expiring in 5 days. Rashford formally set to return to Man United but Barça remain open to new solutions, like another loan deal. ❗️ Barça are open to discuss again if #MUFC open doors. 🔵🔴 pic.twitter.com/XiF95KGiLG — Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) June 10, 2026 Rashford’s reaction Immediately after the news dropped, Rashford issued a reaction. The Carrington academy graduate responded by removing any trace of Barcelona from his social media handles, presumably indicating the severing of ties. His profile now just reads “Sportsperson” and “England.” (Photo courtesy of Marcus Rashford’s Instagram Page) Rashford’s display picture is also now an image of himself in the England training kit as the Three Lions prepare for the World Cup in North America. The club will be hoping that a strong World Cup performance from the forward attracts additional suitors, thereby enhancing United’s bargaining power in potential transfer talks.

United love 21yo “relentless” dribble king mentored by Amorim, German giants stand in their way – report
Manchester United have decided not to extend Jadon Sancho’s contract while Marcus Rashford’s future also appears to lie away from Old Trafford. There is a clear lack of specialist wingers to play on the left side of the attack, which forced Michael Carrick to adapt when he first took charge. He opted to play Patrick Dorgu and Matheus Cunha in that position, and both excelled when called upon. But the Brazilian is far more suited to the support striker role, while the Dane was signed as a left wingback. Winger needed The Red Devils are mulling over changing the ex-Lecce star’s position, but the new head coach could certainly benefit from adding a specialist left winger. With a midfield revamp high on the agenda, there is unlikely to be much room for a big-money purchase for a winger, which explains why INEOS are not looking to sign someone from within the Premier League. Ligue 1 is a market INEOS know well, due to their links with OGC Nice, and Matias Fernandez-Pardo of Lille has been mentioned as a potential target in recent weeks. Another gem from the French top division is also on the 20-time English league champions’ radar: Afonso Moreira of Olympique Lyonnais. Afonso Moreira fits the bill The 21-year-old enjoyed a stellar debut campaign, netting eight times in all competitions while also registering 11 assists. His dazzling pace and “relentless” energy are hallmarks, and United could certainly do with a player of his ilk at the Theatre of Dreams. The Portugal Under-21 international has a market value of only €20 million, having been signed from Sporting CP’s reserve team for a mere €2 million. Interestingly, Ruben Amorim used to play him as a wingback in his system, which illustrates his versatility with United also looking for Luke Shaw’s successor. Bayer Leverkusen in pole position However, Foot Mercato have claimed that Bayer Leverkusen are in pole position for the Portuguese ace. A deal is yet to be agreed, but with Lyon desperately in need of a cash injection, there is a strong chance Afonso Moreira could be on his way out of the Groupama Stadium. “A year after his discreet arrival from Sporting’s reserve team for €2 million, Afonso Moreira has taken his game to another level. “The 21-year-old Portuguese striker has established himself as one of the revelations of this Ligue 1 season with Lyon (8 goals, 10 assists in all competitions), attracting considerable attention. Will United hijack the deal? “According to the Portuguese press, Manchester United had inquired about his situation ahead of the next transfer window. Meanwhile, L’Équipe reported in May that the player was very close to extending his contract with Lyon until 2030, as his market value had skyrocketed in recent months. “According to our information, Leverkusen greatly appreciates the player’s profile and is currently in discussions with Lyon regarding a possible transfer this summer. Lyon, for its part, wants to complete a sale before June 30th to comply with the DNCG regulations. Afonso Moreira could be among the players potentially sold.” There is still a chance United can hijack the deal if they wish. As relayed by The Peoples Person, United are more inclined to bring in a new left-back rather than a winger. It will be interesting to see if this stance changes as the window progresses.

Hugely positive injury update offers relief for United ace ahead of World Cup quest – report
A big injury update has been provided on Manchester United defender Noussair Mazraoui ahead of Morocco’s participation in the World Cup in North America. Injury fears Mazraoui sustained an injury on Sunday during Morocco’s 1-1 friendly draw against Norway at the Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison. Real Madrid star Brahim Diaz gave Morocco the lead before Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard drew his country level in the 75th minute. But the Atlas Lions were more concerned by the injuries suffered by Mazraoui and Abde Ezzalzouli. Mazraoui was on the pitch for only 30 minutes before he had to come off with an upper arm problem. That has now cast doubt over his World Cup involvement, with Morocco set to kick off their tournament on Saturday against a Brazil side containing his United teammates Matheus Cunha and Casemiro. But, ESPN have revealed that Mazraoui is expected to be fit and available for the clash against the Selecao. Mazraoui update ESPN say that Mazraoui will not be sidelined by the shoulder injury and should be back in time for the African nation’s opener. A source told ESPN, “The situation is the following. For Ezzalzouli, we will wait two days just to be sure, to study [the injury] and to make a deeper analysis.” “For Mazraoui, he received a hit on his shoulder and he will resume training in the coming days.” The news outlet explains that Mazraoui picked up a partial shoulder dislocation, although Morocco are yet to officially confirm the severity of it, or how it will affect his minutes in the tournament. He was subjected to a scan on Monday. Best position Mazraoui is exceptionally versatile, capable of playing anywhere across the backline. For Morocco, however, he has largely been deployed on the left, with Achraf Hakimi established as the undisputed starter at right-back. But the United star feels that right-back is his best role. He said, “Right full-back is my favourite position, my best position as well.” “That’s where everything goes automatic. When I get the ball, I know my options. I know what I can do, what I can’t do. I know how to defend. It’s less thinking, it’s more enjoying.” It’s understood that United have been left pleasantly surprised by how strong, agile and aggressive Mazraoui is.

Gary Neville explains how McTominay went from United reject to Ballon d’Or contender with Napoli
Former Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay has turned his career around since leaving Old Trafford in the summer of 2024 to join Napoli. The Scottish midfielder rose through the ranks at the Theatre of Dreams and was a first-team regular under former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. However, the departure of the Norwegian and the subsequent arrival of Erik ten Hag proved to be a major turning point in McTominay’s career. He struggled to nail down a permanent place in the starting XI during two seasons under the Dutchman, prompting the Red Devils to cash in on their academy graduate to facilitate a move for Manuel Ugarte. The move came as a boon for the Scotsman, who won the league in his debut campaign with the Italian club, was adjudged Serie A Footballer of the Year, and was shortlisted for the Balon d’Or last year. The 29 year old was equally decisive this season, helping his team finish second in the league and win the Supercoppa Italiana.

United legends Gary Neville and Roy Keane recently discussed where things went wrong for McTominay at Old Trafford. Fred behind McTominay’s United struggles? Speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, Neville suggested that McTominay’s partnership with Fred may have been the root cause of his struggles at Old Trafford. He said: “What do you think about Scott McTominay?” “I mean, seriously, like, when he’s rebuilt, you know, he was at United, at times, to be fair, in a period where United players were probably getting mocked a little bit, it was like, you know, was it that? He was alongside, what was it, McFred?” Keane was quick to respond, stating: “Fred dragged them down, I have to say.” Neville went on to point out McTominay has enjoyed a spectacular resurgence from being mocked at Old Trafford to becoming a Serie A star. He added: “It was McFred, wasn’t it, at the time, and that was the sort of thing, McFred. But that’s what they called it at the time; it was like they were being mocked, and Scott McTominay is going over to play at Napoli [now].” “He’s got 14 in Serie A this year for Napoli. That is some going, Roy, by the way.” The McFred partnership The ‘McFred’ partnership was formed under the watch of Solskjaer, who opted to partner McTominay with Fred in the middle of the park for major games. Indeed, the two played together 126 times for the Red Devils, registering 75 wins and 26 defeats while also contributing three goals together. The partnership was broken up in the summer of 2023, when Fred was offloaded to Fenerbahce. The Brazilian currently plies his trade in Turkey. Final Thoughts INEOS’ decision to replace McTominay with Ugarte turned out to be a controversial one, especially given the Uruguayan’s disappointing performances. While United are in the market for a replacement for the outgoing Casemiro this summer, the Scottish midfielder’s return to Old Trafford appears highly unlikely.

United plotting move to sign one of Ligue 1’s best wingers to replace dressing room favourite- Sky Sports
Manchester United are open to adding another forward to their ranks this summer. Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko all arrived at Old Trafford last year. The trio performed well in their debut seasons, with each reaching double figures. However, United need more firepower up front as they head into the Champions League next season. Manchester United interested in Matias Fernandez-Pardo According to Sky Sports, Manchester United could look to add a versatile forward this summer, depending on the potential departure of Joshua Zirkzee. The 25-year-old Dutchman, who joined United from Bologna, is thought to be “a positive influence around the changing room since his arrival at the club in 2024” but has not been able to impress on the pitch. Sky Sports claims that United are showing interest in Lille’s 21-year-old forward Matias Fernandez-Pardo. “The young forward can also play on the wings and was included in Belgium’s World Cup squad having tallied eight goals and five assists in Ligue 1 last season,” the report adds. Last year, French publication L’Équipe described the Brussels-born talent as “one of the best wingers in Ligue 1” due to his “rare physical profile.” The 6ft winger possesses explosive pace and exceptional technical ability, making him a nightmare for defenders. Morgan Rogers and Iliman Ndiaye also on Manchester United’s radar United are also reported to be interested in Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers and Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye. However, Villa are expected to listen to offers around the £80m mark. Meanwhile, Everton are reluctant to lose Ndiaye, who has three years left on his contract in Merseyside. Given that United’s priority is to revamp the midfield, they are unlikely to be able to spend big on a Premier League-proven attacker. As such, Fernandez-Pardo has the potential to be a shrewd acquisition.

United launch sensational raid for Liverpool wizard after INEOS identify him as new “key target” – report
Manchester United are plotting to sign Liverpool wonderkid Isaac Konde, according to a well-placed source. Wing Wizard Konde, 16, is a highly rated winger, considered one of the most exciting prospects currently on the books at Anfield. The English youth international operates primarily off the left, but can play on the opposite flank or more centrally, and possesses electric pace and dizzying dribbling. It is a mark of the regard in which Liverpool’s academy staff hold the youngster that he is already playing for the under-18s side, despite only turning 16 early last season. This impressive rise through the ranks on Merseyside has caught the attention of scouts from Old Trafford, however, with United understood to have initiated talks to bring him to Manchester. The Secret Scout, an excellent source for academy updates, reveals the Red Devils are “exploring a move to sign” Konde after he emerged as a “key target”. Contacts between the Mancunian club and the player’s camp, Unique Sports Group, have “already taken place”. Fellow attacker Vincent Joseph is also in the crosshairs as United aim to strike a joint raid on their arch-rivals in the North West – a continuation of an aggressive new policy in M16. Short-term and long-term planning Since INEOS took the helm in 2024, they have spent the best part of half a billion on revamping the first team – but they are not limiting their attention in the market solely to the senior level. A host of top talents from across the globe have been signed over the past two years, such as Sekou Kone from Malian side Guidars FC and Paraguayan starlet Diego Leon from Cerro Porteño. However, if United’s hierarchy spot an outstanding youngster at a direct rival – such as Konde – they will not hesitate to strike. Just ask Arsenal. Chido Obi and Ayden Heaven were captured from the Gunners six months apart, with the Danish striker thriving for the under-18s and the English centre-back already a part of Michael Carrick’s squad. If INEOS can pull off the same trick to bring Konde and Vincent to the Theatre of Dreams, it could prove an even better – and more satisfying – double swoop than the one on the Emirates.

United’s pursuit of 6’3 PL monster under threat as archnemesis opens talks first
A goalkeeper signing is expected at Manchester United this summer. Last summer, in signing Senne Lammens for £18.2 million, United may have laid their hands on the ultimate heir to David de Gea, if last season told us anything. The 2025-26 Premier League transfer of the season was a revelation between the sticks for the Red Devils. He carried United in games with save after save, the 20-time English champions losing only four times in his 32 league appearances. In truth, Lammens was what Andre Onana should have been for The 20-English Champions after he joined on a £47.2 million deal from Inter Milan in 2023. That said, while Lammens has proved himself, question marks have lingered over his deputy, Altay Bayindir. Like Onana, Bayindir failed to prove he possessed the quality to deliver as a United keeper. Given a big opportunity to prove himself in the first six league games of the season, he failed to show his quality. Double goalie exit Now the Turkish international and Onana are both expected to leave this summer, and United are consequently looking to sign another goalkeeper in addition to handing third-choice keeper Tom Heaton a new deal. There have already been suggestions about which shot-stoppers INEOS can move for, and yesterday, a report claimed Leeds United’s Karl Darlow is one of them. Karl Darlow impressed last season Against all odds, Darlow forced himself into relevancy by bringing stability to the shaky Leeds United goalkeeping department. In 22 appearances, the 35-year-old played a key role in the Whites avoiding relegation, posting an impressive 70% save rate and keeping five clean sheets, a fine return for a team desperate to beat the drop. After the season he had, Leeds should feel safe with him between the sticks. However, if they are to still rely on him, they must move quickly to secure his future, given his current deal at the club expires on 30th June. INEOS are clearly keen on pouncing on the opportunity that Darlow will be available on a free transfer. And while interest from Manchester is doing the rounds, a defiant message has dropped from Elland Road. As they revealed their list of released and retained players, Leeds clarified that “the club remains in discussions over the futures of first-team players Sam Byram, Alex Cairns and Karl Darlow.” Man United or Leeds, Darlow has a decision to make There is hope of Manchester United snatching one of their arch-nemesis’s key players, with the promise of Champions League football and a better deal. But Leeds’ promise of ample game time could equally sway him to stay. In the end, it may come down to what Darlow wants, but while he looks to make his decision, he need not forget that a chance to play for the great Manchester United only comes once.

Morgan Rogers teases United fans with comments about his footballing idol
It’s shaping up to be quite the summer for Aston Villa’s talented playmaker Morgan Rogers. Not only is he in the England squad for the upcoming World Cup, but he has also been linked with a transfer to some of the biggest clubs in the world, most notably Manchester United. The interest in Rogers comes as no surprise given he has excelled since joining Villa from Middlesbrough in 2024. Given that he managed the England international at Villa, Michael Carrick knows the extent of Rogers’ talent better than most. Carrick wants to bring Rogers to Old Trafford, and the player’s comments suggest he would not need a lot of convincing to join the Red Devils. A strong season Despite a shaky start to the season that saw Villa fail to win any of their first five matches in the Premier League, the team soon kicked into gear and Morgan Rogers was pivotal to the change in their fortunes. Across the entire campaign, the skilful attacker scored 14 goals and registered 12 assists, highlighting his creativity and lethal finishing. Rogers and his Villa teammates capped off a phenomenal season by lifting the Europa League trophy after a commanding 3-0 victory over Freiburg in the final. The former Middlesbrough man scored a goal and registered an assist in the final, showcasing his appetite for the big games. Many believe the forward’s relationship with Carrick will be pivotal in the race for his signature. A huge opportunity It is a testament to the quality and drive Rogers possesses that he is a firm favourite of England manager Thomas Tuchel and looks set to play a key role for the Three Lions at the upcoming World Cup. He will fight it out with Galactico Jude Bellingham for the starting spot behind Harry Kane and, should he be successful, it will present Rogers with the chance to showcase his talents on the world stage, following in the footsteps of the former United player he recently revealed to be his footballing icon. Cristiano Ronaldo During a quickfire interview with Dazed, the Aston Villa midfielder was asked to name his footballing icon. “Cristiano Ronaldo,” he said without hesitation. “For me, the best to ever do it. I just think everything about him was different to what we probably seen before. He just brought that originality that I think I kind of took a shine towards.” This link to Old Trafford could yet prove pivotal in United’s pursuit of the 23-year-old. A summer transfer to the Red Devils would present him with the chance to follow in the footsteps of his idol, who went on to win the Golden Boot and nine major trophies during his time as a mighty red. Here’s hoping the England international plays a key role in bringing football home this summer before becoming a key cog in United’s rise towards the summit of the Premier League, back where they belong.
