In the end, Manchester United probably didn't have much other choice; after leading the club back into the Champions League during a remarkable interim tenure, Michael Carrick has been appointed head coach on a permanent basis.

Cole Palmer and Phil Foden are reportedly set to miss out on England's 2026 World Cup squad, with Thomas Tuchel's final 26-man list being leaked ahead of Friday's official announcement.

Manchester United are ready to flex their financial muscles this summer as they plot an ambitious double raid for Newcastle's Sandro Tonali and Atalanta enforcer Ederson.

Barcelona have reportedly agreed personal terms with Marcus Rashford as Hansi Flick pushes to keep the Manchester United forward. However, the Red Devils remain firm on their €30 million (£25m/$34m) valuation despite the player’s desire to stay in Catalunya.
