Manchester United are exploring ways to overhaul their squad this summer, with Roma midfielder Manu Kone emerging as a primary target for the Premier League giants.

Manchester United have invited Marcus Rashford to appear in the club's Amazon documentary, despite ongoing uncertainty about his future. The move has raised fresh questions over whether the England forward could yet remain at Old Trafford for the 2026-27 season.
Manchester United have reportedly received a major boost in their pursuit of Aurelien Tchouameni after Real Madrid softened their stance on the midfielder's future. The French international could now become the final piece of the Red Devils' midfield reinforcements if a £68 million deal can be agreed.
Nicky Butt has criticised Manchester United's season ticket restrictions after supporters were caught up in the club's anti-touting crackdown. The former Red Devils midfielder believes genuine fans should be allowed to share tickets with family and friends without facing penalties.
Michael Carrick has become the latest manager to take on the challenge of rekindling former glories at Manchester United, but can he achieve a first since Sir Alex Ferguson? The Red Devils have failed to capture the Premier League title after bidding farewell to the iconic Scot, and have also found stability in the dugout hard to come by. Mikael Silvestre has told GOAL that the next man up is capable of enjoying a rare form of longevity.
Benjamin Sesko has been set a goal target for the 2026-27 campaign that should be “written in his contract” at Manchester United, with Dwight Yorke explaining to GOAL why the Slovenian striker can “fly” for the Red Devils. Michael Carrick needs his leading marksman to do just that if a return to Premier League title contention is to be enjoyed at Old Trafford.

With the new Premier League season now less than a month away from kicking off on August 21, pre-season friendlies are about to get into full swing as the majority of clubs jet off around the globe to ensure the best possible preparation for the 2026-27 campaign. However, due to the World Cup, a number of squads are far from full strength as those who reached the knockout rounds in North America enjoy some belated time off, creating opportunities for others to stake their claim for greater roles over the next 10 months.
It feels as though Marcus Rashford and Manchester United are back at square one. Both player and club must have been desperately hoping that Barcelona would take up what looked like a bargain £26 million ($35m) option to buy the attacker at the end of a productive loan spell in Catalunya in 2025-26, but, much to United's disbelief and anger, they turned in another direction. Now, Rashford faces limbo at Old Trafford.
