There's an unwelcome headline this morning as an AI supercomputer prediction named Michael Carrick among the Premier League managers who could be next to lose their jobs, according to the Manchester Evening News (Manchester Evening News).
On the transfer front, the Manchester Evening News reports United have been urged to pay around £80million for Harry Kane despite his age, with suggestions he remains one of the few guaranteed goal threats available (Manchester Evening News). Elsewhere, the same outlet reports that United could land a transfer windfall, with Real Madrid and other Premier League clubs said to be interested in Scott McTominay, who left for Napoli in 2024 after 22 years at Old Trafford, and is now valued at around £25million (Manchester Evening News).
Away from the pitch, the Manchester Evening News also reports that United's current "shield" in the title race could disappear if Manchester City are expelled from the Premier League over their financial charges, which would reportedly increase pressure on United to challenge for the title (Manchester Evening News).
