Manchester United

Manchester United have made the forward Antony and goalkeeper Martin Dubravka their fifth and sixth signings of the summer.

United’s football director, John Murtough, said: “Antony is one of the most exciting young talents in European football and has exactly the right profile for the attacking, dynamic team Erik is building. His style of football and coaching brings out the best in me, and I am excited by what he has told me about his plans and ambitions in Manchester. He is expected to be in the squad for Sunday’s game at home to Arsenal.

Manchester United have signed Newcastle United goalkeeper Martin Dubravka on loan, the club announced on Thursday.

The chance to work with David de Gea, alongside Tom Heaton, is one that I am relishing. I enjoyed every minute of my time there and made amazing memories to look back on. There is an obligation to sign him permanently at £6m if Dubravka starts a certain number of Premier League games.

KING POWER STADIUM, LEICESTER — Although transfer deadline day is dominating the headlines, there is some football to be played tonight, too, as Leicester ...

20 mins to KO: The Red Devils are searching for a first win in six over Leicester. United strike as Rashford plays a nice short ball behind Leicester's last man and into the path of Sancho, who gets beyond Danny Ward and slots in coolly. 30th min: United are quite happy to keep possession now, with the scoreline giving Christian Eriksen a chance to start purring from his deep midfield position. Fernandes then plays in his compatriot for a third chance, but Ronaldo goes too wide and there are no teammates to meet his ball across the box. Ronaldo is of course up top, with Rashford moving to the left. HALF-TIME: Boos from a smattering of home fans as the players head down the tunnel. Moments later, the Brazilian made an interception in a dangerous area and then immediately played a great cross-field ball to Fernandes on the right flank. But that in itself will satisfy the Dutchman, who rode the rockiest of waves to start his United career, and has now enjoyed a memorable win over Liverpool to stem the tide and some plain sailing with back-to-back away victories. Ronaldo was surprisingly strong from the bench, too, crafting several opportunities to extend the lead, and being lively across the frontline. The Red Devils held on to end a run of five games against Leicester without a win, and ensure spirits are high ahead of Sunday’s huge home clash with league leaders Arsenal. United took their foot off the gas and controlled proceedings with comfort, as Leicester struggled to make any inroads. The former Borussia Dortmund star had began the game well, interchanging with Bruno Fernandes and each of United’s attacks seeming to flow through him.

Jadon Sancho fired United to a third straight win as the England forward showed he still has a role to play despite the big-money signing of Brazil winger ...

That’s the reality. A chorus of boos echoed throughout the stadium as the full-time whistle sounded, and the Leicester fans continued to come to grips with the reality that they could be in a relegation scrap this season. Justin had time and space to steady himself as he lined up a shot, but ended up sending the attempt way off the target in the 93rd minute. Ronaldo had hoped to leave United before the transfer window shut on Thursday, but the Portugal star was unable to find a suitor willing to meet the club’s asking price and his desire to play in the Champions League. After winning the league in 2016, Leicester rose to prominence as one of the most competitive and feared clubs in English football. United moved up to fifth place and sit just one point adrift of the top four as Ten Hag begins to make an impact after a nightmare start to his reign.

Jadon Sancho lifted Man United past Leicester City and the Red Devils look more confident than they have in a while. But attacking concerns persist.

Once we have Cristiano Ronaldo and Casemiro getting fitter it will get better still -- we need not only a team we need a squad." Manager United manager Erik Ten Hag on the win: "It is another step forward so I am happy with that. Replacing him will be impossible, but Leicester need to find a younger striker with the ability to score as regularly as Vardy used to.

The Foxes look a broken team, with United comfortably seeing out the win with not much effort.

Jadon Sancho scored Manchester United's only goal of the game on Thursday night, and it was enough to beat Leicester City and secure all three points in the ...

“I think he had a quite good pre-season,” Ten Hag told reporters at his post-match press conference. “We knew Leicester would come out fighting in the second half, and as you could see, they had a few chances towards the end. Hopefully, I can score next time.”

Jadon Sancho's first-half goal gave Manchester United a 1-0 win that left Leicester bottom of the Premier League and booed off at the end.

Barnes did draw gasps after a curling effort out of nothing from 20 yards flashed over David de Gea’s upright but they came closest to equalising in the second half when James Maddison forced De Gea into a fine save from a free-kick. Leicester failed to make the ball stick and United feasted on their opponents’ dishevelment. “I know where the statement came from and I know it wasn’t Wesley Fofana,” he said. The galling thing for Rodgers was that it stemmed from Danny Ward booming a clearance upfield. More often than not programme notes amount to nothing more than empty platitudes but the Leicester chairman, Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, used his to address some of the questions that have surrounded the club throughout a trying and destabilising summer in which Wout Faes, a £15m arrival from Reims, represented their only outfield signing. The performance was largely as gutsy as it was pretty but Jadon Sancho’s superbly taken first-half strike was enough to secure United successive away wins for the first time since last September.

Manchester United beat Leicester 1-0 to move them up to fifth in the Premier League.

It was the first time Manchester United have won three consecutive games in the division since December 2021, which points to the improvement made under their new manager. Jadon Sancho's strike secured a third straight win for the Red Devils as Erik ten Hag's revolution continues to gather pace. The England international rounded Danny Ward in the first half to leave Leicester rock bottom and move Manchester United up to fifth ahead of Sunday's meeting with leaders Arsenal.

Manchester United have confirmed the signing of Brazilian winger Antony from Ajax for a deal believed to be worth around £85 million.

I’m thankful to everyone who has believed in me, especially my family, and all my coaches and team-mates, because I could not have got here without them.” Antony told the club’s website. “Playing under Erik ten Hag at Ajax was perfect for me and my development. “My time at Ajax was fantastic and I will always be grateful for the trust they put in me, but now I am ready for the next challenge, and I can’t wait to join my new team-mates and play my part in bringing success to Manchester United.”

We will pick the right XI to start but as you see, it’s not only a team, we have a squad and also, today, the subs who came on did really well so I’m happy with that. “No, it is an option but also, I have to think, I have seen Arsenal, a tough opponent, they have started really well as we all know in the season and you can see there is a team who are [a] long [time] together, with a coach who brings his philosophy in the team. “I think it’s about formation, about getting and creating lines and then making the right decisions.

Wolves v Southampton (15:00) Tottenham v Fulham (15:00) Here is the full schedule... Last weekend also marked the 11-year anniversary of our historic 8-2 victory in the fixture. United triumphed 3-2 in a memorable game against Arsenal when this fixture was last played at Old Trafford, back in December 2021. Arsenal's tone-setting 2-0 win over Crystal Palace on the opening day was followed by 4-2 and 3-0 victories over Leicester and Bournemouth, respectively. Despite losing our opening game 2-1 to Brighton, followed by a heavy 4-0 defeat on the road to Brentford, the Reds bounced back against Merseyside rivals Liverpool. The Swede was part of our matchday squad in the Midlands and could be again on Sunday. Victor Lindelof returned to training before the Leicester game, but did not feature at the King Power Stadium. United fans are eagerly awaiting the debut of new signing Antony, whose arrival was announced on Thursday’s transfer deadline day. Pre-match coverage will start at 15:25 BST on Sunday and will be followed by live radio commentary during the 90 minutes.

Hear from the boss as he chats about team news, the transfer window and the trip to Old Trafford.

That is the only reason why we are here, and we have to continue to do that. We have obviously tried to get everything done that we can, and sometimes you have to get the right balance. Yesterday it was a real possibility and we tried, but then we kept the decision to say that it has to be the right player for the team and for the club. I think we have learned a lot from that and there's still the players that we have to get out. We have gone through things like that when we hadn’t won at Stamford Bridge for 20 or something years, but you need to believe that you will do that. We have to go into the market and the other teams and coaches are going to tell you how good you are, what your value is and what you’ve done. The attitude of the player is there and he’s really disappointed to be out again as you can imagine, and the team needs him when he’s back. He called me really late last night and it was more of a conversation that we used to have when we were teammates and really good friends. There is nothing else we can do, we have an academy as well that we have to use, and we’ll try to utilise the players in the best possible way. Then we had to react in the market and we tried, but at the end of the day we have to bring in the player that we feel is right for the team and for the club and we didn’t manage to do that. I think that there have been moments when the history and the media were talking about it, and the special rivalry between certain players built a certain momentum into it. No, we had a lot of things still to do in the squad, you see the amount of departures, compared to the number we have recruited.

Erik ten Hag's plan for major surgery in such a short time at Manchester United is both ambitious and flawed with Antony's arrival signalling the audacious ...

(It’s also worth remembering that he lost a child five months ago, and has every excuse to be distracted.) And yet the arrival of Antony is perhaps the clearest signal yet that Ten Hag is intending to build a team without him: quick, mobile, unpredictable and with multiple threats from multiple angles. This in itself is a quietly revolutionary development: junking the club’s star signing from a year ago after a season in which he scored 18 league goals. The expectation is that Antony, a left-footer, will slot in on the right, a long-standing problem position for United. This was a process that even Alex Ferguson took years rather than months to implement, seeking out not just winning talents but winning characters, players who would fight for each other, players who could play to a plan. He dribbles at speed, cuts inside for the cross or shot, presses with energy and “grinta”: an Italian term that Ten Hag loves to use for players with grit, guts, the will to fight and win at all costs. It is a trick that Pep Guardiola has often sought to deploy, and it serves a dual purpose. Having tried and failed to leave the club, Ronaldo has found himself on the bench ever since the Brentford game. All the red flags are present and correct, given what we know about United, and particularly United in the transfer market, and particularly United in the transfer market in the final week of the window after a bad start to the season. The sense of urgency and panic. The mechanics of Antony’s transfer are emblematic of United’s many dysfunctions. It brings Manchester United’s spending this window to about £200m plus potential add‑ons, and together with the signings of Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martínez means United are responsible for about 48% of the Eredivisie’s entire summer transfer income. It’s the 13th most expensive transfer of all time, slotting in between Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid.

Get all the news, views, stats and retro action ahead of this weekend's trip to Old Trafford.

United have kept just one clean sheet in their last 16 Premier League meetings with us, a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium in January 2021. United are one of just three sides Gabriel Jesus has faced in the Premier League but not scored against, along with Cardiff City and Brentford. We will pick the right XI to start but as you see, it’s not only a team, we have a squad and also, [against Leicester], the subs who came on did really well so I’m happy with that. They are a big rival, we know that and we are going to compete with them." A 2-0 win against Liverpool in their last Old Trafford outing helped heal some wounds, before beating Southampton and Leicester City with 1-0 scorelines. Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez were recruited from the Eredivise while Christian Eriksen arrived on a free transfer, with big names such as Paul Pogba, Juan Mata, Nemanja Matic, Edinson Cavani and Jesse Lingard all being released.
