Calum Scanlon and Lewis Koumas went from teammates to rivals as the pair played against each other for England U19s and Wales U19s, respectively. Thankfully, they can remain friends after the points were shared, with the match ending 1-1. With Koumas starting in attack for the Welsh, he came up against Scanlon in the England defence, but couldn’t manage to score himself. However, Koumas’ teammate, Ben Lloyd, did net after 55 minutes, but the visitors couldn’t hold out as Millwall’s Romain Esse scored an equaliser and, with 20 minutes left to play, that’s how the scoreline remained. At under-21 level, Liverpool had another…
Gravenberch agreed to move to Merseyside having struggled to establish a role with Bayern Munich upon leaving Timber’s side. The pair both graduated out of the academy at AFC Ajax to become essential first-team figures. Arsenal ended Timber’s time in Amsterdam this July. Timber joined Ajax back in 2014 upon leaving the academy squads of their fierce rivals, PSV Eindhoven. The following eight years saw the 22-year-old play 129 games with Gravenberch for club and country. He has only ever played alongside Brian Brobbey more often with 145. Gravenberch and Timber have played together for Ajax’s U17, 19, 21 and senior teams, plus…
The 26-year-old recently scored a stoppage-time brace to dig United out of a hole against Brentford, relieving the mounting pressure on manager Erik ten Hag after an inauspicious start to the season. United had been trailing to Mathias Jensen’s first half goal at Old Trafford, which saw Andre Onana make another handling error, but McTominay made an immediate match-winning impact after being thrown on by Ten Hag late in the game. McTominay’s exploits follow a remarkable run of goalscoring form for Scotland, who are on course to book a place at Euro 2024 despite losing 2-0 to Spain on Thursday night -…
NUMBER ONE SALAH REPLACEMENT Liverpool see Bayern Munich winger Leroy Sane as their number one target to replace Mohamed Salah next summer, according to reports. The Reds had to deal with constant speculation in the final weeks of the summer transfer window with rumours Salah could be joining Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Ittihad. Liverpool reportedly turned down a bid of around £150m for the Egypt international with claims the Saudi side could go even higher before the end of the window. But the Merseysiders made their stance clear that Salah was not going anywhere and the 31-year-old has contributed six goals and…
Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is reportedly ready to do all in his power to sign RB Leipzig striker Lois Openda in 2024 amid claims he has become obsessed with bringing the Belgian to Old Trafford. The Red Devils have struggled across the park this season, with a lack of goals a worrying aspect of their dire performances so far. Indeed, Manchester United have just nine goals in eight Premier League games to their name, with only seven sides scoring fewer to date. And while summer signing Rasmus Hojlund has adapted pretty quickly to his new surroundings, Marcus Rashford’s loss of…
According to Fichajes, Manchester United are reportedly interested in 26-year-old La Liga forward Umar Sadiq. The Nigerian has had a challenging time since joining Real Sociedad. Yet, his goalscoring prowess remains formidable as Erik ten Hag targets a new forward ahead of the next window. If anyone does not know Umar Sadiq, he is Real Sociedad’s striker, signed from Almeria during the summer of 2022 in a €20 million deal. The fact that he remains linked to Manchester United may surprise many; the Nigerian boasts a stellar goalscoring record. After spending two seasons with Almeira in the Segunda Division, Sadiq…
Casemiro was substituted in the 79th minute of Brazil’s 1-1 draw against Venezuela, leaving Manchester United fans worried after the Seleção Canarinha manager admitted that the player had asked to come off due to an ankle problem. Although there was initial hope that Casemiro may be okay after he was spotted with the squad on Saturday, reports from Brazil have now dampened the news. Globo have revealed that Casemiro has, in fact, twisted his ankle and that it is badly swollen. He continued to play despite the pain on Friday against Venezuela but was eventually substituted due to the injury. The report explains…
Ajax wonderkid Jorrel Hato has hinted that his dream is to one day sign for Arsenal, despite rumours that Liverpool are interested. With the Netherlands international signing for Arsenal this summer, Hato has since stepped in for Timber for Ajax, with the teenager already attracting some major interest, namely from Liverpool. Football Transfers claimed that Jurgen Klopp wants to bring the youngster to Anfield, though Hato himself has seemingly hinted that his dream is to join Arsenal. The Dutch teenager said: “Unfortunately he [Timber] was seriously injured in his first Premier League game for Arsenal, but he is still young and…
The Manchester United striker headed to LaLiga last month after bosses ruled he could not continue his career at Old Trafford following an investigation into his off-field behaviour. Greenwood, 22, scored to earn a draw against Celta Vigo last Sunday. He later said online: “Happy to score my first goal for Getafe. “Amazing team spirit to come away with a point.” A source told SunSport he is hoping to stay at the Madrid-based club for the forseeable future, saying: “The players and fans have all given him a welcome he could only have dreamed of. “He really feared his career was over.…
It is no secret that Real Madrid could do with another striker. Joselu has done a fantastic job lately and is proving a lot of people wrong, as he has shown that he can consistently find the back of the net for Los Blancos when given chances. But he is the only option that Carlo Ancelotti has right now at centre-forward. The Italian manager has changed his formation this season, going from a 4-3-3 to a 4-4-2. But that is more out of necessity than a tactical choice. The results have been consistent though and there seems to be no…
