Al Ahli v Al Ittihad: Saudi Pro League

📽️ | Toney's samba tribute to Vini Jr in Al-Ahli win

Ivan Toney continued his sensational form in the Saudi Pro League, proving once again why he is the division’s most feared marksman. During Al-Ahli’s high-stakes Sea Derby clash against arch-rivals Al-Ittihad, the England international opened the scoring in a 3-1 victory that saw his side reclaim top spot in the table. However, it was his post-goal antics that caught the eye of social media users across the globe.

Toney warns Ronaldo in Saudi Golden Boot race

Cristiano Ronaldo has his sights set on footballing immortality once again, but England international Ivan Toney is stood firmly in his path. The Portuguese icon entered the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League campaign looking to build on a period of unprecedented dominance, having secured consecutive Golden Boot awards since his arrival in the Middle East. Ronaldo’s goal-scoring exploits saw him hammer home 35 goals in 31 league appearances during the 2023–24 season, a feat he followed up with another impressive 25-goal haul last term. With 21 goals from as many games in the current campaign, he will be confident of taking the crown once again despite Toney's exploits.

Toney roasts Saudi Pro League rival over 'bad breath'

England international Ivan Toney has found himself at the centre of one of the more bizarre flashpoints of the Saudi Pro League season following Al-Ahli’s narrow victory over Damac. The former Brentford talisman, who has been in clinical form since his high-profile move to the Middle East, was involved in a heated and unusual exchange with an opposition defender that quickly went viral across social media platforms. While the match itself was a tight affair decided by a single goal, the post-match fallout has been dominated by Toney’s blunt assessment of his opponent's personal hygiene.

Brits Abroad: Kane & Toney continue fine goal-scoring form

GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.

Red-hot Toney must be England's Kane back-up at World Cup

There has been heated debate over who should play back-up to Harry Kane for England at the World Cup this summer, but in truth the answer is becoming increasingly obvious. There is only one striker who can hold a candle to the Three Lions captain this season, and it is one who is operating out of sight and out of mind in Saudi Arabia, where he has eclipsed Cristiano Ronaldo.

History

Manchester United, often simply referred to as "United," are one of the most iconic and successful football clubs in the world, based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club was founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878 by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway depot at Newton Heath. The team changed its name to Manchester United in 1902 and moved to its current home, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Famous players

Manchester United have been home to some of the greatest footballers in history. Sir Bobby Charlton, a World Cup winner with England in 1966, is arguably the most iconic figure in the club's history. Other legendary players include George Best, known for his flair and skill, and Eric Cantona, who brought a winning mentality to the club during the 1990s. More recent stars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, and Paul Scholes have also contributed significantly to the club's success.

Manchester United are one of the most decorated clubs in English football, having won a record 20 Premier League titles (formerly the First Division). They have also lifted the FA Cup 12 times, the League Cup five times, and the UEFA Champions League three times.

Managers

Sir Alex Ferguson is undoubtedly the most successful manager in Manchester United's history. He spent 26 years at the club, leading them to an unprecedented era of success. Before Ferguson, managers like Matt Busby and Wilf McGuinness played crucial roles in shaping the club's identity. More recent managers, including David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, and José Mourinho, have faced the challenge of maintaining the club's high standards.

Stadium

Old Trafford, often referred to as the "Theatre of Dreams," is one of the most famous stadiums in the world. With a capacity of roughly 75,000, it is among the largest football stadiums in the United Kingdom. The stadium has hosted numerous major matches, including UEFA Champions League finals and FIFA World Cup matches.

Location

Manchester United are based in the city of Manchester, which is located in the northwest of England. The club's home ground, Old Trafford, is situated in the Trafford borough. Manchester is a major industrial city with a rich footballing heritage.

Owners

In February 2024, British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe's company, INEOS, acquired a significant 25% stake in Manchester United. This acquisition granted Ratcliffe sporting control over the club, placing him in a position to influence key decisions related to its operations.

Ratcliffe has already made a substantial financial commitment to Manchester United. His large investments demonstrate his dedication to the club's success and his willingness to provide the necessary resources for its growth.
