Bruno Fernandes has been named the PFA Players' Player of the Year after a landmark 2025-26 campaign in which the Manchester United captain broke the Premier League record for most assists.
Manchester United players need to take ‘responsibility’ on the pitch, says Wayne Rooney (Picture: The Overlap) Wayne Rooney has called on Michael Carrick to take both Luke Shaw and Andrey Santos out of Manchester United’s starting XI following the side’s opening-day defeat to Hull City. Hull produced the major upset of the weekend as Semi Ajayi and debutant Nobel Mendy scored two unanswered goals to ensure Sergej Jakirovic’s side got off to a perfect start on their return to the Premier League. There had been a renewed sense of optimism amongst United’s fanbase heading into the new campaign, but Carrick’s men managed a total of just five shots on target despite finishing the contest with 71 per cent of the possession. The Red Devils return to top-flight action at home to another of the Premier League’s new boys in Ipswich on Sunday and Carrick may well be feeling the pressure at this embryonic stage of the season.

The United manager will not be able to call upon £70million summer arrival Carlos Baleba, who was officially unveiled on Tuesday evening but is currently recovering from ankle ligament damage. It remains to be seen if Carrick will keep faith with his new-look midfield combination of Youri Tielemans and Santos following the pair’s largely underwhelming performances at MKM Stadium. ‘I think players need to take responsibility on the pitch because when you play against a Hull City or Ipswich, the next game, you can set up however you want to set up and a lot of the time it’s decisions,’ club legend Rooney said while dissecting United’s display on The Overlap.

With his relationship with Chelsea fans far from being ideal, Enzo Fernandez has reporedtly given the green light to Manchester City in a move that could turn into the record signing of the Premier League. Enzo Fernandez‘s tenure with Chelsea appears to be nearing its conclusion, marked by a hostile reception from supporters who once cheered the former club captain. With Fernandez reportedly agreeing to personal terms with Manchester City, an eventual deal between the two clubs could make him the most expensive transfer in Premier League history. Chelsea opened their 2026-27 Premier League campaign on Monday against Fulham, with Fernandez starting among the substitutes. Head coach Xabi Alonso introduced the Argentine midfielder in the 65th minute to replace Romeo Lavia, only for Fernandez to be loudly booed by traveling Chelsea fans at Craven Cottage. When asked after the match about Fernandez’s situation and a potential move to Man City, Alonso did little to dismiss the speculation. “In football, I am not surprised by anything. We will see this week. My wish is that we know what will happen for the future, but we will see this week,” he told the BBC, while later brushing off the crowd reaction as “not a big deal” during his press conference. Enzo Fernandez open to Man City move According to Fabrizio Romano, Fernandez has given his green light to join Manchester City. With the player eager for a fresh start, negotiations now depend on Chelsea and the Premier League champions agreeing on a fee after an initial 120 million pound release clause timeline expired.

(Buda Mendes/Getty Images) According to TyC Sports journalist and Argentina insider Gaston Edul, Manchester City will formally submit their proposal for Fernandez between Tuesday, August 25, and Wednesday. Following a direct discussion between Fernandez and Alonso regarding his standing in the squad, Edul reports that the manager considers a departure entirely feasible. Although the option to trigger his previous £120 million clause has passed, City manager Enzo Maresca’s desire to anchor his midfield rebuild around the Argentine has driven the club forward. Edul reports that Manchester City are preparing a bid between £130 million and £140 million ($177M to $191M USD), eclipsing the £106.8 million ($145M USD) Chelsea paid Benfica to sign him originally. Manchester City have already cleared necessary roster space in midfield through the sales of Tijjani Reijnders and Rodri, alongside a potential departure for Nico Gonzalez to Newcastle United. The accumulated transfer revenues position City comfortably within Financial Fair Play guidelines to complete the record-setting transaction. Enzo Fernandez, the most expensive Premier League transfer? Fernandez previously set the benchmark as the most expensive acquisition in Premier League history when Chelsea paid 121 million euros (£106.8 million / $145M USD) to Benfica. While subsequent transfers surpassed that mark, City’s proposed valuation would place him back atop the all-time list. At present, Alexander Isak holds the record for the highest transfer fee paid by a Premier League club following his £125 million ($170.5M USD) move from Newcastle United to Liverpool. Even at the baseline estimate of £130 million ($177M USD), Fernandez would re-establish himself as the league’s most expensive signing. If the transaction goes through at the projected figures, the Premier League’s all-time top transfer leaderboard would rank as follows: Enzo Fernandez: Chelsea to Manchester City for £130 million ($177M USD)Alexander Isak: Newcastle United to Liverpool for £125 million ($170.5M USD)Morgan Rogers: Aston Villa to Chelsea for £117 million ($159.6M USD)Elliot Anderson: Nottingham Forest to Manchester City for £116 million ($158.2M USD)Florian Wirtz: Bayer Leverkusen to Liverpool for £100 million plus £16 million in add-ons ($158.2M USD total)
