Centre-half relief
Harry Maguire has shared an update on his injury scare, which will relieve Ruben Amorim and especially the United hierarchy ahead of the January transfer window.
The experienced centre-half suffered a hamstring issue during the 2-2 draw at Tottenham and had to be withdrawn.
But it's not a long-term problem, it seems, and means United won't have to turn to the market to fill the void in the second half of the season.
Maguire shared a couple of posts on his Instagram story to show he was working on his fitness during the international break.
Bet365 Man United offer
Manchester United extended their unbeaten run in the Premier League to five games against Tottenham on Saturday.
Spurs were seconds away from only a fourth Premier League home win in 2025 when Mathys Tel and Richarlison struck late on to put them 2-1 up.
But Matthijs de Ligt struck deep into stoppage time to rescue a point for United.
The Reds face Everton after the international break before concluding November against Crystal Palace.
Games against West Ham United, Wolves and Bournemouth kick start December, and United are 20/1 with Bet365 to win all five games.
El Mala linked with Roma amid Zirkzee speculation
Roma are reportedly exploring attacking options for January as they continue talks over Joshua Zirkzee.
The MEN reported last month that Zirkzee wants to leave United in January and, despite his struggles, is unlikely to be short of offers.
Spanish side Sevilla are keeping tabs on Zirkzee's situation, while West Ham United have also been linked with a move for the forward.
Roma were one of the first clubs to be linked with a move for the forward, but according to Corriere dello Sport, Cologne star Said El Mala has also caught the eye of the Italian side.
Sesko statement released
The Football Association of Slovenia has moved to calm down the club-versus-country row Benjamin Sesko has found himself caught up in.
Slovenia manager Matjaz Kek was left furious earlier this week after he claimed he had been kept in the dark by Manchester United over the injured striker and demanded his country be shown “maximum respect”.
Kek had threatened, according to the Daily Mail, to cause a 'diplomatic incident' and would have preferred his own doctors to examine Sesko. Instead, the forward, who picked up a knee injury against Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, was examined by United’s medical staff and has stayed at Carrington for further treatment rather than link up with the Slovenia national side.

Dorgu transfer slammed
Ruben Amorim's first Manchester United signing has been brutally slammed by a former club scout. Amorim has overseen two trading periods during his 12 months at Old Trafford, with five senior signings made and just under £250million spent.
Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Senne Lammens were the players acquired this summer with all four impressing to some degree. Patrick Dorgu was the first signing made by Amorim when he joined from Lecce in a £29.2million deal in the January transfer window.
The Denmark international appeared to be perfect for Amorim's wing-back system, but he has struggled for regular starts this season, particularly when Amad is deployed on the opposite flank.

Solskjaer reveals Sancho issue
Former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has had his say on Jadon Sancho's time at Old Trafford.
The English winger joined United in the summer of 2021, but fell out of favour at Old Trafford under both Erik ten Hag and Ruben Amorim. After being sidelined from the squad by two different managers, he has been sent on three separate loan spells, the first of which saw him return to his former club Borussia Dortmund, where he played a crucial role in getting the German side to the Champions League final.
He was loaned to Chelsea last season, with his move including a £25million obligation-to-buy clause. However, the Blues chose to pay a fifth of that as a penalty fee for not exercising that option.

£70m 'talks'
Manchester United have reportedly been put on red alert about the possibility of signing Borussia Dortmund star Karim Adeyemi. The speedy forward is enduring a difficult spell at Dortmund and is unsettled as the January transfer window approaches.
Bild report, via the Mirror, that talks are ‘in full swing’ behind the scenes over Adeyemi’s long-term future at the club. He is currently tied down until June 2027, but his new agent Jorge Mendes is pushing for fresh terms, which would include a £70million release clause.
Casemiro curveball
Manchester United find themselves in a predicament when it comes to deciding Casemiro's future.
On the one hand, the Brazilian has managed to become an integral part of Ruben Amorim's team this season. We have said time and time again that United look worse when the midfielder is not on the pitch.
Full credit goes to Casemiro for this. Last season he looked like he would never return to a point where he could perform week in, week out, in the Premier League.

Rashford transfer theory shut down
Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha has dismissed the notion that £28million is a bargain price for Barcelona to sign Marcus Rashford.
"I think Marcus Rashford does provide a bit of worry," he said, via OLBG. "You have to manage him. What happened to him at United?
"I think something could happen again so I think that he has to have his own objective. I think he needs to come back to that level and maintain that to be in the World Cup and win it. That's what I hope for him."

January transfer claim
Sky Sports News report that United are not expected to sign any new players in the January transfer window. Ruben Amorim is set to lose Bryan Mbeumo, Amad and Noussair Mazraoui to the Africa Cup of Nations which begins in late December.
Amorim has also acknowledged that the seriousness of Benjamin Sesko's knee problem might affect their strategy.
"We have to check everything, we have to check what has happened with Ben," he said.
"Of course, we are going to have a problem there [with AFCON], but we already knew. Then you can prepare that in the summer, but then you have a lot of players in the summer who are not going to play because it's one game per week. So the management of that situation is going to be hard.
"But let's see when the window is open, if we can improve the team and try to prepare something that happened. Until then, we have to take the chance."
Anderson 'interest' amid Baleba choice
Sky Sports Germany's Florian Plettenberg has claimed that United remain keen on Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson and have registered serious interest with a fee of £100m-£120m being demanded.
That update suggests that some form of talks have been held whether that be internally, with Forest or to Anderson's camp.
Toney update
Ivan Toney is reportedly open to a Premier League return in January amid speculation around a potential move to Manchester United. The 29-year-old has spent the last 15 months in Saudi Arabia after he left Brentford to sign for Al-Ahli in August 2024.
Since his move to the Middle East, Toney has scored 41 goals and provided eight assists in 59 appearances. With the ex-Peterborough man netting 11 of those in 15 matches this season, talk has increased that he could be set for a move back to English football.
Toney is thought to be considering a return to the Premier League following his exit from Brentford last summer. It's added that numerous top-flight clubs have made enquires about a January deal, with Everton and Tottenham among those interested.
While there is no specific mention of United's name in the report, the Reds wanted Toney before he went to Saudi Arabia. After impressing for Gareth Southgate's England at Euro 2024, the Old Trafford club considered Toney as a striker option as they tried to strengthen their front line.
