Welcome to Monday's United Daily Podcast. I'm Wayne Barton with today's news and rumors. The big news over the weekend was the injury to Manuel Ogate. He was um taken off on a stretcher during the World Cup defeat um to Spain, which confirmed Uruguay's elimination from the World Cup. Well it has since been Revealed that Agate has suffered a knee ligament injury. There are some projections saying he'll be out for six to nine months. That's how long a lot of these injuries take to heal.
How long is Ugarte expected to be out and what does that mean for United’s summer sale plans?
The club officially announced assessment of the injuries ongoing to determine the best course of treatment and the rehabilitation timescale. Everyone wishes Manuel. a successful recovery and we will be supporting him every step of the way. Of course, Agate was one of the primary players and slated for sale over the summer. That's not going to happen now. He's going to stay at the club. The rumours that we're linking him with an exit were generally low figures. There were a lot of Turkish clubs in interested in signing him but um a lot of speculation about a loan um or or a small fee to to kick off and then you know a fee at the end of his loan. Um it is impacting United's uh transfer activity they are they were looking for two midfielders anyway um but they were hoping to you know raise twenty odd million through
Which transfer targets are being delayed because of Ugarte’s injury?
through Salina Garte, so we'll see what happens there. Um it still looks as though United are pushing uh forward for Fernandez. The West Ham midfielder has basically just said he wants to leave the club and he's not really fussed if it's United or Spurs. I think United and Spurs were kind of waiting for him to make a decision in in one direction there that helped Them and helps their case. Um it doesn't look like it'll get completed before tomorrow. Um you know the deadline which people were speculating that West Ham needed money. There's some talk that he's the owners there's gonna be an owner injection of capital or something to navigate some of the rules. I'm not quite sure what's happening down at West Ham to be honest.
That's just the state of play with Fernandez United a little bit in the dark.
What is the current status of West Ham midfielder Rodrigo Fernández’s move to United?
Dark there. Um the rumour that you can probably believe but is r will be sure to infuriate everyone this morning. Marcus Rashford wants to go back to Barcelona. Barcelona are ready to wait until late in the summer transfer window to complete the deal for Rashford. They'll probably offer another loan deal. um with an option to make it permanent, just like they did last time. They should ban some clubs for transfer activity. I mean United sometimes enter into this sort of thing, but I think at least when United go into transfers they go in with good faith in wanting to sign a player. This from B Barcelona is just terrible, terrible conduct. Um they they had a very low option on on
Is Marcus Rashford likely to return to Barcelona this summer?
Signing a player, they've signed another player for 80 million pounds who doesn't look anywhere near as good as Rashford in the World Cup, does he? Um just anyway. One rumour I'm not gonna believe this morning is AC Milan's interest in Mason Mount are gonna get put a few of these two and two equals five rumors. Um Mount um did a good Job for Amrim, didn't he? He was uh one of these um I guess you would say versatile players in in that system. If Amram's gonna play the system that he played at Old Trafford, which you you know, he was he nailed his colours to the mast with it, didn't he? So you would presume it he's going to do that. Mount kind of fits the profile of a player who would work in that squad uh in that system.
But I can't see
Is AC Milan seriously interested in signing Mason Mount and how could that impact United’s midfield?
Milan having offered anything yet, so uh we'll see what happens there. I think that's just a a natural rumour that's come about as Amrim taking charge there, but I can't see him going back to Sim Mason Mount. One that I don't think has got any truth in it whatsoever, Monaco midfielder Accliuce has told Liverpool and United that his priority is to join Manchester uh Paris Saint Germain. this summer.
