🚨 Michael Carrick used the trip to Norway to meet up with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Although Carrick beat Solskjaer to the interim United job in January, the pair remain close and sources said Solskjaer was in good form.

Solskjaer keeps a deliberately low profile in his home country. His appearances in the media are rare in his homeland, and he wasn't involved in any coverage of Norway's World Cup quarter-final against England.

Yan Diomandé is on the verge of joining Real Madrid...only 3 years ago, he was on trial at Chelsea 🤯

🚨🇫🇷 BREAKING: Bradley Barcola will NOT sign new deal at Paris Saint-Germain, the decision is confirmed.

As always reported, he’s open to exploring a move this summer and will NOT sign new contract.

🔴 Liverpool have Barcola on top of their list.

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨 Understand Liverpool remain the club showing most concrete interest in Bradley Barcola.

No truth in Barça links, #LFC deal depends on conditions for the exit as price will be set by PSG.

No talks over new contract so far.

🚨 Rashford’s wages are among the HIGHEST in football, boosted by a Champions League bonus. Any suitors would need DEEP pockets and that heavily increases the chances of him staying at Old Trafford where manager Michael Carrick is OPEN to the idea.

🚨 Hall is the only name really on the agenda at the minute at left-back, with Nathaniel Brown and Myles Lewis-Skelly basically having been considered non-starters.

There is no rush to add a left-back, with Luke Shaw fit, Noussair Mazraoui able to offer cover and Harry Amass still in the building, but United know they need more depth.

For Hall to happen, he will need to make a fuss to leave Newcastle and United will have to make a very good offer. Neither of those are guaranteed to happen.’

🚨🚨🌕| NEW: Manchester United are not concerned that Lisandro Martinez’s injury which saw him leave the field in the World Cup final is a serious one and the Argentinian should be fine for the start of the season. [@AndyMitten]

🚨🚨🌕| NEW: Mathijs de Ligt is expected to take a little longer to return, possibly until the autumn, after undergoing back surgery. He hasn’t played in the Premier League since last November. [@AndyMitten]

[UtdXclusive @UtdXclusive]

🚨 NEW: Real Madrid gave United target Aurelien Tchouameni a three-year contract extension and improved wages in part because they didn’t think Manchester City’s Rodri was available to them. Then Madrid understood that Spain’s World Cup winning captain could be. If Madrid are to buy big then they need to sell big. The Spanish club are looking at multiple transfer operations right now and, should they choose to try to sell him, Tchouameni’s contract extension could help them ask for a higher fee since he previously only had two years left and they did not want him to leave for free.

United have long admired Tchouameni and understand that the midfielder is very happy at Madrid, but would leave if they didn’t want him and, if that was the case, be open to the idea of playing for United.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

#mufc want another midfielder and to strengthen the left side, specifically at left back where Luke Shaw is the only established performer, though Noussair Mazraoui can switch.

Lewis Hall is a target and United wouldn’t target players if they didn’t think they didn’t want to move to Old Trafford [@AndyMitten]

[SimplyUtd @SimplyUtd]

🚨 United hoped to sign Ederson from Atalanta in Italy and terms were agreed. The Old Trafford club felt they had an excellent deal, signing him for a reasonable fee given he only had a year of his contract left, but an issue was flagged in a first medical and United decided NOT to go ahead.

🚨🗣 - Fabrizio Romano:

"Man Utd spoke with Manu Kone's agents and had CONCRETE conversations with them, but United are yet to reach out to Roma because they're yet to decided which player they want as defensive midfielder." [@FabrizioRomano, YT]

🚨🇮🇹 Como have become one of the first clubs to BAN heading in their youth academy in a major move to protect young players' brain health. 🧠❌

▪️ U10: Heading banned completely. Kick-ins replace throw-ins and corners are played along the ground.
▪️ U11: Heading still banned, with limited technique work only introduced at the end of the season using lightweight balls.
▪️ U12: Maximum of one heading session per month, with no more than five headers.
▪️ U13: Heading allowed only in training once a week (max five headers), but remains banned in matches.

The initiative, led by Raphaël Varane, aims to reduce head impacts while children's brains are still developing and encourage greater technical ability with the ball at their feet. 👏🇫🇷

The most expensive English players of all time 🤑:

Morgan Rogers → Chelsea — £117m (2026)
Elliot Anderson → Man City — £116m (2026)
Jude Bellingham → Real Madrid — £115m (2023)
Jack Grealish → Man City — £100m (2021)
Declan Rice → Arsenal — £100m (2023)

Which Englishman has been worth the money? 🤔

ON THIS DAY in 2019, Arsenal signed William Saliba 🇫🇷🔴

Since then, the Gunners have won 89 of the 130 Premier League games the Frenchman has started 😳💪

Is Saliba Arsenal’s best signing of the Emirates era? 🤔

[Stretford End @StretfordEndx]

🚨 NEW: Manchester United are enjoying a sense of calm after completing three signings last week and playing their first pre-season friendly in Helsinki. With key areas addressed, the club is content for now, with next steps focused on midfield targets and the left-hand side.

No move for Crysencio Summerville shows wing reinforcements are off the agenda while Rashford remains. The squad will head to Dublin for a training camp in the coming weeks, with friendlies in Gothenburg and Wroclaw. [@TyMarshall_MEN] #mufc

🚨 Middlesbrough are reportedly eyeing a move for Radek Vítek. #MUFC [@SportsPeteO]

[SimplyUtd @SimplyUtd]

🚨 Manchester United are not looking to rush Gabriel's development. He is still only 15 years of age and if he continues to impress for the academy next season, that is no bad thing.

His inclusion in yesterday's travelling squad to Norway shows how highly Carrick thinks of him. As the forward put it, United fans need to be patient and trust the process.

Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher spent years as teammates at Manchester United 🤝

Now, years later, Carrick is managing United… while Fletcher’s 19-year-old son, Tyler, captained the side in pre-season 🤯👏

Three generations of football connections, all linked by Manchester United 🔴

🚨🚨| NEW: Arsenal remain focused on signing Bruno Guimarães as their 𝐓𝐎𝐏 𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐆𝐄𝐓 this summer. 👀🇧🇷

Newcastle would only consider offers around £100m..the level of Sandro Tonali's transfer fee.
