No official response from the club yet, as of the time of talking, um or recording I should say, with regards to the season ticket fiasco. Um waiting to see what official response the club pil there's a couple of briefs from some journalists who are trying to diffuse The situation, um but there's nothing official yet from the club. In response, um United have apparently reached an agreement in principle over personal terms with Roma midfielder Manu Cone.
How could a Rodri move to Real Madrid affect United’s midfield plans?
He's expected to cost around forty five million pound. Um I'm not quite sure on the validity of uh these rumours just yet, um that's the that's the total Like.
This morning uh that United have agreed a deal with Roma. Um it's not coming from all the the most clued up sources just yet, so um we'll wait and see on that. I mean that it could break any minute, but um yeah, th there's a rumour there. Around forty five million pounds. Um United, however, could still be in the market for too many.
Which United player might need to be sold if Rodri leaves Manchester City?
Um Rodri is being linked with a move to Real Madrid. Real Madrid really want Rodery. Chiumani really recently signed this new contract which appeared to rule him out of um a move this summer. But if Ray will move for Rodery and if City don't stand in his way, Rayle will need to sell uh a player and also free up a space in midfield because Rodri will move straight into it. And all the conventional logic says that will be Chiou Meni and And his spot. So we'll see what happens there. There was a whisper, you know, don't rule it out in the same way that United went in for Casemiro a few years ago.
Is United likely to pursue a Casemiro‑style midfield signing this summer?
I'm not sure on that one. Obviously, there's a lot of moving pieces in that um jigsaw. But we'll see what happens there as well. Obviously, if United go for Coney, they will not be going for too many as well. Um that's it for the Transfer rumours. Um happy birthday to Tony Dunn, uh who's since passed away, and Jim Leighton, uh former goalkeeper of United, both bone on this day in history. And United played today against Rosenberg, uh Rosenberg, I should say.
What were the key match updates and squad news from United’s game against Rosenborg?
Um JJ Gabriel, the fifteen year old, is going to be in the squad for today's game. He's travelled to Norway uh for it. They kick off at five PM. I'll be back tomorrow. tomorrow with the reaction from that game and all the gossip as well. Have a great Friday, guys. Thanks for listening.
