Liverpool’s blockbuster swoop for Darwin Nunez could lead Manchester United to plot a move for Bayern Munich goal machine Robert Lewandowski. That is according to the Daily Star, who claim the Red Devils will try to tempt the wantaway striker away from his ideal destination of Barcelona. Lewandowski is one of a host of Europe’s elite strikers expected to be on the move this summer, with the prolific Poland international outlining his intention to leave Bayern. The 33-year-old has entered the final year of his contract, and publicly declared his career at the Allianz Arena is over.

Manchester United will sport yet another new home shirt for when Erik ten Hag takes charge. The Red Devils, like every other team in the Premier League, change their jerseys year after year. And the new kit certainly looks like it’s throwing things back to the 1990s when Sir Alex Ferguson ruled the roost.

Erik ten Hag is emerging as the front runner for what is possibly the toughest job in football – the manager of Manchester United. But how has a man who doesn’t love the limelight reached this possibility? Despite Mauricio Pochettino’s name having been in the ring for years, it seems increasingly likely that the man who will ultimately take the job will be Ajax manager Erik ten Hag.

As Ten Hag becomes United’s preferred candidate in the managerial race, he’s already been told about life at United by a club legend.  The Ajax boss has emerged over the past few days as United’s preferred candidate to become the club’s next permanent manager. Although no plans have been finalised, United still intend on making an appointment before the end of the current season.
