🚨 One of Sir Alex Ferguson's biggest transfer regrets wasn't because Manchester United were outbid.
United had done the groundwork. Ferguson wanted Eden Hazard. The club had convinced one of Europe's brightest young talents and were ready to bring him to Old Trafford.
But according to later reports, the deal collapsed when a secret payment was allegedly demanded during negotiations. United refused to proceed, Ferguson stood by the club's principles, and the move fell apart.
Hazard joined Chelsea instead, became a Premier League superstar, and Manchester United were left wondering what might have been. 🤯🇧🇪
🚨 NEW: Mateus Fernandes to Man United is still very much possible if the club push forward strongly.
West Ham are understood to doubt United will meet the £80M valuation, while there is also uncertainty over whether they will hold firm on that full price throughout the window.

🚨 Paul Pogba on Michael Carrick: “He’s doing a GREAT job, and he did it also at the time when he was assistant to Solskjaer.”
“He's a great guy and he has experience. I think it’s going to be good for United. I wish them the best obviously.” ❤️ #MUFC
🚨 Manchester United are among the clubs monitoring Morgan Gibbs-White's situation this summer.
However, Forest want him remain at the City Ground for at least one more season. His situation is one to watch as the transfer window progresses.

🚨NEW: United are pushing to reach an agreement with logistics company Freightliner in the coming weeks and months over the land needed for the new 100,000-seat stadium.
A deal with Freightliner is understood to be the key to unlocking the project. Until United know what land they can use, they cannot settle on a final design, which is needed to establish how much it will cost and to work out the best way to fund it.

🚨 Manchester United's interest in players like Aurélien Tchouaméni just tells me all I need to know about theirs plans for the summer window.
The club is not just looking for players with quality/talent, they are also aiming to add serial winners to the club.
It now comes down to Real Madrid, let's hope they consider a sale. I will be watching the Frenchman tonight. 🔥
🚨 NEW: West Ham have set an asking price of £80M for Mateus Fernandes.
The club are yet to receive any offers for the Portuguese midfielder, with Manchester United and PSG among his suitors.

🚨 Morgan Rogers is low-block kryptonite. There are not many better ball carriers than him in world football. He's also an elite passer, his passing is the most underrated aspect of his game.
We could be getting an elite ball carrier, creative passer at LW/AM/RW in one player. He's a hard-worker off the ball as well. Do it INEOS! 🔥 #MUFC
Iker Casillas was unstoppable for Real Madrid. Honestly one of the greatest keepers ever.
His saves against Liverpool and his performances in big games is actually insane.
I'm so excited for the World Cup...🔥⏳
🚨NEW: United have added Iliman Ndiaye to their shortlist as they weigh up plans to sign a left winger this summer.
However, the desire to sign a left-winger isn't as high up the agenda as it was six months ago, with Dorgu's emergence in that position and Cunha's performances there handing Michael Carrick options.

🎙️ Patrice Evra: "We were there in a dressing room in Moscow, fighting for a common cause."
"Through football, we became brothers. We got goosebumps, then won the Champions League. That's Manchester United. That's why I love this game." 🤩
Special. Everything at Stake.
