Lewis Hall has emerged as a transfer target for Manchester United, with Chris Waddle telling GOAL why the opportunity to “double” his salary will hold obvious appeal to the Newcastle left-back. A mass exodus of talent, on and off the field, has been taking place at St James’ Park. There is a chance that an England international defender will form part of that process.

Michael Carrick has helped to turn Manchester United’s fortunes around, but Lee Sharpe has sounded a trophy-winning warning to the Red Devils’ new permanent boss. A return to the Champions League party will be enjoyed in 2026-27, but pressure will build on the man at the helm if major silverware falls out of reach across domestic and continental competition.

Manchester United have confirmed that goalkeeper Altay Bayindir has left Old Trafford to join La Liga outfit Celta Vigo on a season-long loan. The Turkish international, who has struggled for consistent game time since arriving in England, heads to Spain in search of regular first-team football under Claudio Giraldez.

Michael Owen has explained to GOAL why Manchester United need to “break the rules” when it comes to Bruno Fernandes, with it imperative that the club captain at Old Trafford commits to a new contract. The Portuguese playmaker, who made Premier League history last season, is yet to agree an extension to terms that are due to expire in the summer of 2027.
