Eintracht Braunschweig U23 Panoramica

Michael Owen has hit out at Manchester United’s recruitment strategy, suggesting the Red Devils made a massive mistake by not signing Joao Pedro before his big-money move to Chelsea. The former United striker believes the Brazilian forward possesses qualities that the Old Trafford side have lacked for several seasons.

Reece James has admitted that he still has "rust" to shake off despite making a successful return to action in Chelsea's final pre-season friendly. The Blues captain featured in the 3-1 victory over Real Sociedad at Stamford Bridge, but he warned that the squad is still finding its rhythm under new management.
