This podcast is proud to be part of the Talk Sport Fan Network. Talk Sport powered by fans. This is Wednesday's United Daily Podcast. I'm Wayne Barton with today's news and rumors. Manchester United um forward Marcus Rashford is still being linked with Barcelona, Hansi Flick and Deco and Joan Laporta are all keen to sign him on a permanent basis amid interest from

What transfer rumors are surrounding Marcus Rashford this week?

Wayne Barton 0:31
Bayern Munich, Newcastle, Spurs and Aston Villa. All the top clubs that you can think of that are interested in, but Barcelona have um just under two weeks to activate the close that they've got in their loan agreement, which means they can sign in for just under twenty six million pounds. They're refusing to do that so far. Um yeah. And it will continue to be a daily news occurrence until they make a decision on that one way or the other. Um United have been linked with this is a report from Italy so um take it with a pinch of salt, I don't think there's any truth in it whatsoever. Juventus are looking to balance the books.

Why is Juventus considering selling defender Pierre‑Calulu?

Wayne Barton 1:10
They're one of the Italian clubs who didn't challenge uh qualify for the Champions League, so they're looking to sell one or two players. Pierre Calulu, the France defender, is one of those. Um they're looking to move him on. United, who might be in the market for a Defender being linked with him. I can't see that one coming off. Um what is more um serious seems to be the Um Matthias Fernandez conversations United are in conversations with West Ham in the same way that they were with Emboom and and Brentford, you know, after s signing Cunha.

How close is United to completing the Ederson deal?

Wayne Barton 1:44
They moved swiftly from one to the other. I think after getting Edison sealed, all parties agreed yesterday that um That the deal is done. It was widely reported that uh United will be looking to um complete and action the sign in in early July, which kinda tells you that they're going to be working on transfers like the Fernandez one. Um he's been moved on to as the primary target. West Ham signed him for forty million pounds last year. United are looking to get him for they tried going in at that figure, but West Ham want more. Um they wanted sixty. They might sell somewhere around fifty. But Arsenal, Liverpool and Paris are also interested and West Ham will be open for a biddy more, won't they? Um that's it for today.

What are United’s chances of signing West Ham midfielder Matthias Fernandes?

Wayne Barton 2:29
Um no more transfer rumours apart from um well and nothing else to report apart from two on this days to talk about. First of all and on this day we lost three day three years ago to Manchester City. in the FA Cup final scored after eight nine seconds didn't they? El Kai Gundigan and with a goal and then he scored early in the second half as well. Bruno Fernandez had scored a penalty in the uh first half to equalise, make it one one at halftime. United were never in the races in that game. Ten our goddess tighty strong. We'd return a year later, he'd get them right and we'd win the trophy, but not on this occasion. It was a disappointing very warm day. Wembley. Finally on this day, a club legend was born in 1898, but one you will have rarely heard of before, Charlie Moore.
Wayne Barton 3:16
Um played 328 times for United over two stints.

Who was Charlie Moore and why is he a forgotten United legend?

Wayne Barton 3:20
Um he was released and re-signed to the club due to an injury. That's an indication of how bad the club's finances were in the post-war years. He was one of the legendary players to play in the 1920s. But yeah, because of how difficult that period was, rarely gets mentioned. The likes of Charlie Hilditch who I talked about yesterday and we've talked about them earlier on this podcast before, Frank Barson and Joe Spence. Well these are this is the time of those kind of legends who dedicated so much of their lives to United and um played so long for the club and racked up some of these high numbers for appearances Um yeah, Moore played three hundred and twenty-eight times at fullback. Um but yeah, didn't uh he's got the record of s or I don't I think it's still the case that he's played more times than anyone else without scoring for the club, uh outfield player at least as well.
Wayne Barton 4:12
Um I should say, even though Stephanie and She Michael have scored goals uh for the club.
