This is Thursday's United Daily Podcast. I'm Wayne Barton with today's news and rumours. Manchester United are interested in Angus Gunn, the Nottingham Forest goalkeeper, who was released this summer, or will be released, I think, in five days' time when his contract expires. A Scotland goalkeeper, um United looking for a backup goalkeeper with the expensive Expected sale of Altai Bayandir and Gunn has emerged as a target. Um Radig Vitek has been linked with a move to Hull City. Whole city looking for a goalkeeper. Vitek um impressed in the championship last season, didn't he? Um so he'll be on a lot of clubs, radars. United will probably be looking to r get between fifteen and twenty million pounds for him.
That'd be a really good um boost. So transfer kit.
How likely is a move for Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott to United?
We'll see what happens there. Um United have been linked with a move for Alex Scott, the Bournemouth midfielder. This one has been uh just a ref surface link from earlier in the summer of course. Arsenal have been linked with him too. The um cherries are put in a price of around tw uh sixty million pounds for him but they are also um in uh reported contracts um negotiations with him where they'll be raising the um the exit clause in his contract to about seventy five million pound. Um so yeah he's looking to get out before then uh see if he can get his move before um committing himself to the um South Coast Coast Club for a little bit more time um but I I still don't think that he's um a United primary target.
I think he's on the secondary list. The n the club are still pushing on the uh Fernandez from West Ham um story. Um West Ham's need to sell before the thirtieth of June is pretty well established during a bit of financial difficulty there um due to being relegated and some problems with their um uh
United are hoping to take it right to the wire and and get that deal over the line. Um call in West Ham's Bluff on the supposed interest in Fernandez. Um from a couple of clubs.
What is the status of United’s interest in West Ham’s Bruno Fernández?
Um Fernandez is said to have agreed terms with Spurs and Spurs are pushing for him as well. Um yeah, that might just be noise in order to flush United out. We shall see on that. United captain Bruno Fernandez is set to stay at Old Trafford. He has apparently told some of his teammates he has no intention of leaving the club after speculation. Linking into Saudi Arabia last summer. And that's it in terms of transfer rumours. Um Mathias Cunha scored in the World Cup last night and for Brazil. He scored the third in their win over Scotland, which all but eliminates them. They'd be looking at one of these third uh places um over the next few days to um they don't want a club to leapfrog them.
How does Scotland’s World Cup performance affect United’s fanbase?
I think they're in seventh of eight current places um so the top eight best third place teams go through this is as much as I understand it and then the United Scotland are currently in seventh with like four or five teams still to play and so yeah. Interesting dynamics um and good luck to Scotland of course 'cause it'd be good to see them go through, wouldn't it? Um and they had such a good Good start to the tournament. Anyway, that's it for today guys. I'll be um back tomorrow with the news and rumours. Have a great day.
