  • last year
An update before Friday’s deadline.
Transcript
00:00 Michael, starting with Manchester United, just a bit of an update on any transfers, news, what can you tell us is the latest?
00:09 Yeah, I'm expecting a bit to happen between now and Friday's deadline.
00:14 I'm certainly expecting Dean Henderson to leave Manchester United and Bayern Munich's goalkeeper from Fenerbahce to join.
00:22 That one looks pretty likely to happen.
00:25 I think that United will probably get a left back across the line. Obviously they're in the market now for another left back after the injury to Luke Shaw.
00:34 Obviously Tyrell Malasio already injured from earlier in the summer.
00:38 And of course United allow Alex Tellez and Brandon Williams to leave before these injuries.
00:43 So they've obviously had a bit of a nightmare, a bit of a difficult situation for United.
00:47 So that's what I expect to probably happen in terms of any bigger things.
00:54 I mean, I keep saying it, you know, they need to sell players before they can bring anyone in.
00:59 They don't have the resources to spend big money.
01:03 I think that Harry Maguire looks like he's going to stay.
01:06 There's no big interest from Anthony Martial.
01:10 And I think the only one that potentially there could be a bit of movement on is Scott McTominay.
01:15 But if I had to guess right now, I suspect he will stay as well.
01:19 But again, not 100% sure on that.
01:22 And I think if McTominay goes, they'll try and bring in another midfielder.
01:26 I think Tannhaig certainly wants to bring in another midfielder.
01:29 But, you know, as I say, United have been limited with that.
01:32 Graeme Bursch is one they're interested in.
01:34 Amribat as well. A lot of talk yesterday about Huyberg.
01:37 I think that one looks unlikely, if I'm honest.
01:40 Yeah, there's just a lot going on at United in terms of that.
01:45 I think it's, truthfully, always turned into a pretty disappointing window for them.
01:49 Their inability to sell has basically impacted them throughout the window.
01:55 And I think that, yeah, just their inability to sell important players for big money is just holding them back
02:03 and is therefore reduced to finances.
02:05 I think finances in general are a worry.
02:07 United used to dwarf other clubs in terms of income, in terms of sponsorship.
02:11 That is simply not the case anymore.
02:13 There's all the issues around the players.
02:15 There are concerns at United, I still think, really.
02:20 So, overall, I think it's turned into quite a disappointing window for United.
02:23 Let's see if they can add anything in the final days.
02:26 But I do think ultimately United fans will feel a bit underwhelmed by it all.
