5 h. ago Problems piling up for Ruben Amorim as Manchester United struggle to rebuild | Jamie Jackson

The ‘infamous five’ told to train separately, lack of new signings and a restricted budget – United’s manager is stuck in summer of discontentThe on-off Bryan Mbeumo saga and Liam Delap choosing Chelsea are troubling bellwethers of Manchester United’s predicament a month from the start of the season. So, too, is having half an outfield first team in a bomb squad that skulks in for training in the late afternoon when those not in the same club-decreed quasi-shame have left for the day.As time ticks towards Arsenal’s opening Premier League Sunday visit and, beyond, to the window’s close on 1 September, Ruben Amorim can hardly be ecstatic at how the summer is progressing. The head coach has added only Matheus Cunha from Wolves, for the forward’s £62.5m release clause, a sizeable chunk of a transfer budget constricted by a looming debt mountain and the need to sell to buy a No 9 and, possibly, finally prise Mbeumo from Brentford.

2 w. ago Football transfer rumours: Arsenal join Premier League race for Hugo Ekitike?

Today’s fluff has the ice machine onAs always, every single football team in the country needs a brand new striker to take them from mediocre to champions. Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United have already taken a long look at Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike, done the calculations and have not yet signed him. This casual messing about has allowed others to consider their position and Arsenal are now also interested in the Frenchman, who is worth an absolute shedload.One reason Mikel Arteta may have turned his attention to the Frenchman, is the lack of movement in Arsenal’s pursuit of Sporting striker Viktor Gyökeres. The Swedish international is keen to depart the Portuguese club and he might just get his wish after a bit of complaining. Sporting president Frederico Varandas has admitted the club are willing to accept a fee lower than his €100m (£85.6m) release clause. Continue reading...

Today’s fluff is the footballing equivalent of BazballJadon Sancho must be wondering where to turn next, as Chelsea chose not to sign him and Manchester United certainly do not want to reintegrate him into Ruben Amorim’s squad. It might not always seem as if there is a solution in these situations but there often is and it comes in the form of the Turkish Super Lig. Supposedly José Mourinho’s Fenerbahce have agreed personal terms with the former Borussia Dortmund winger, who is available for around £17m. His fellow unwanted United forward Marcus Rashford has been offered some hope of moving to Barcelona on loan.Any money earned by Jason Wilcox could be splashed on Wilfred Ndidi, who would cost £9m from Leicester thanks to a release clause. Everton are also keen. Continue reading...

Today’s rumours are still feeling that late-Sunday fileDespite a breakthrough season at Paris Saint-Germain, where he registered double digits for both goals and assists in Ligue 1 and made a sizeable contribution to the club’s maiden Champions League triumph, Bradley Barcola finds himself as the odd one out in Luis Enrique’s forward line. Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia appear to be in the box seats for PSG’s starting XI, the latter signing in January from Napoli, which has meant the absurdly talented Barcola could move on this summer. Europe’s elite are lining up, fluttering their eyelashes at the 22-year-old, with Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Liverpool all seen as frontrunners, should Barcola (and PSG) decide to move on.Nothing stirs the heart quite like the words “Japanese wonderkid” and the latest J1 League star to make his way to England is Kōta Takai, who is on the verge of a £5m move to Tottenham from Kawasaki Frontale – which would constitute a record s...
