Pep Guardiola has criticised the Leeds United supporters who booed the Muslim Manchester City players observing Ramadan when they broke their fast during Saturday's Premier League match. The City coach called for more tolerance and said that respecting other religions was part of living in the modern world, while Leeds' assistant boss Edmund Riemer said he was also disappointed with the reaction.

Former Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka has revealed how much he suffered when he first joined the club in 2019. In an honest and open interview, the player gave an insight into his struggles to adapt to his new life after leaving his friends and family behind in London. And he revealed the lengths he would go to in order to stay in touch with his loved ones.

Just five months ago Oliver Glasner was looking like a serious candidate to be the next Manchester United manager. On the day serious doubts about Ruben Amorim's future began to emerge following the limp defeat at Brentford in late September, Glasner's Crystal Palace beat Liverpool, halting the Red's seven-game winning streak and leaving the Eagles as the only unbeaten team in the Premier League.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka has lifted the lid on his complicated relationship with former Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag and explained what led to him leaving the Red Devils to join West Ham in 2024. Wan-Bissaka joined United in 2019 from Crystal Palace for £50m but he has revealed how difficult it was for him to settle in at the club despite him getting on with then coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Manchester United boss Michael Carrick has given an update on Matthijs de Ligt as the Dutchman continues his recovery from a back injury. The coach also had positive news about another stricken United player as his side prepare to welcome Crystal Palace to Old Trafford on Sunday, when the Red Devils will be looking for their fourth consecutive home victory.

Angel di Maria has lifted the lid on why his time at Manchester United was such a disappointment. The winger joined United for a then club record fee of £60m just after helping Real Madrid win their first Champions League in 12 years and reaching the World Cup final with Argentina. But after a promising start he began to struggle at the Red Devils and sought an exit after his first season.

They say you should never meet your heroes, but Brazilian teenage prodigy Dell probably wouldn't agree. The Bahia and Brazil Under-17s striker has idolised Erling Haaland since he was a child, so imagine the excitement he got when, one day in training, he received a video message from the Manchester City hitman.

Pep Guardiola said one should always be careful when criticising strikers like Erling Haaland. All it takes, the Manchester City boss explained, is for them to score again and "shut your mouth". Lately, however, Haaland has been shutting mouths without scoring. Over the last year he has turned into the complete forward, an even more frightening prospect to opponents than he was before, and an even greater asset to City's hopes of winning a quadruple.

Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada hailed the club's off-pitch transformation after squad costs fell due to a summer clearout of players. Despite bringing in Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Senne Lammens for a total of £225.5m, United were able to shave £14m ($18.9m) off their total wage bill due to player sales and sending others out on loan.

Manchester United's 1-0 win at Everton was the perfect showcase for the recruitment team. The goal was the work of the three summer signings: started by Matheus Cunha, packaged by Bryan Mbeumo and clinically dispatched by Benjamin Sesko. The lead was then protected by the man who is proving to be United's best signing of the last year and looks like their best hire for many years: Senne Lammens.

Benjamin Sesko has revealed the truth about rumours he has been taking shooting advice from Dimitar Berbatov amid his scoring hot streak for Manchester United. Sesko fired the Red Devils to a priceless 1-0 win at Everton on Monday, scoring his sixth goal in seven appearances and his eighth in total as he continues to pay off his £74m ($100m) transfer fee since arriving from RB Leipzig last summer.

Manchester City hoped, and may even have expected that a midfielder called Nico would transform their fortunes during the second half of last season. The man that has become key to Pep Guardiola’s side’s mid-season surge and made them contenders to pull off the quadruple is not, however, the gangly Nico Gonzalez, who was recruited from Porto for £50 million last January, but rather academy graduate Nico O’Reilly, who cost nothing at all.

Benjamin Sesko spoke about his self-belief after snatching a vital victory for Manchester United at Everton and gave his true feelings on still not starting a game under Michael Carrick. Sesko's strike decided a stodgy encounter at the Hill Dickinson Stadium which sent United three points clear of Chelsea and Liverpool in the race to finish in the Premier League's top four.

Benjamin Sesko came off the bench to fire Manchester United to a narrow and barely deserved 1-0 win at Everton which could be utterly priceless in their quest to finish in the Premier League's top four. The Slovenian started on the bench for the sixth game in a row but for the third time in four appearances he made all the difference, banging in the crucial goal in the 71st minute.

Manchester United have been dealt an untimely blow as a key defender was ruled out of their clash at Everton hours before kick off with a calf injury. Michael Carrick's side can tighten their hold on fourth spot in the Premier League, with a victory in their first visit to the Hill Dickinson Stadium set to take them three points ahead of Chelsea and Liverpool.

Legendary Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar has given an insight into why Andre Onana flopped so badly at the club. Van der Sar, who won four Premier League titles and reached three Champions League finals with the Red Devils, knew the Cameroon international well from his time as Ajax's CEO and fully expected him to be a success at Old Trafford.

Sergio Aguero has rubbished claims that Erling Haaland has been on a goalscoring slump, saying the Manchester City superstar has spoiled all football fans due to his ridiculous strike rate. Haaland struck 14 times in the opening 11 Premier League games of the season but has slowed down since, going eight matches without scoring in open play between December and February.

Nico O'Reilly continued his incredible season by powering Manchester City to a 2-1 win over Newcastle which cut the gap with Arsenal in the Premier League title race to just two points. O'Reilly scored a brilliant opener which was soon cancelled out by Lewis Hall. But City's homegrown midfielder restored his side's advantage with a well-taken header set up by a fine cross from Erling Haaland.
