Manchester United boss Michael Carrick (Picture: Getty) Manchester United have put Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-jae on their ‘transfer list’ ahead of the new Premier League season, according to reports in Germany. United have had a relatively subdued summer transfer window to date, with Youri Tielemans, Andrey Santos and Karl Darlow the only first-team arrivals at Old Trafford. The Red Devils could yet bolster Michael Carrick’s squad further before the end of the summer transfer window, with the club keen to sign a new left-back to support Luke Shaw and another forward to support Benjamin Sesko. Manchester United are also believed to be open to the possibility of signing a new centre-back given Lisandro Martinez and Leny Yoro’s injury issues and the fact Harry Maguire turns 34 during the upcoming season.

Bayern Insider says United have held long-term interest in Kim and have once again put the Bayern Munich star on their ‘transfer list’ this summer. The South Korea international, 29, has made over 100 appearances for Bayern since his €50m move from Napoli in 2023. Kim, who was heavily linked with Chelsea earlier in the summer before they signed Maxence Lacroix in a £52m deal from Crystal Palace, is said to be happy at Bayern despite losing his place in the team last term. Bayern Munich and South Korea defender Kim Min-jae (Picture: Getty) ‘There is some truth to reports around Manchester United’s interest in Min-jae Kim,’ German transfer expert Christian Falk said. ‘As I’ve mentioned with Bayern Insider previously, the South Korean international is on the list at United. ‘They’re always looking at his situation at Bayern Munich. That said, Min-jae Kim is very clear at the moment that he wants to stay at Bayern and he’s fine with his current role at the club. ‘He’s not in the starting XI at the moment, but he has a chance to get there if he’s playing well and, of course, if injuries strike. So, Kim wants to see if he can push back into the team. Chelsea summer signing Maxence Lacroix (Picture: Getty) ‘It’s not like he’s so disappointed that he wants to force a move, and this is a very good situation for Bayern Munich, as they’re fully aware they can’t rely on just two senior centre-backs for an entire season. ‘Having a player like Kim available is critical if they want to go far in all competitions – especially in the Champions League. ‘Remember, succeeding in Europe is a big target for Bayern Munich. Vincent Kompany made it clear that Bayern want to do better than they did last term. ‘The target is winning the competition. I can’t remember this aim ever being so clearly formalised by the head coach as Kompany did. ‘So, you see, they need a really good squad and they need high-quality options like Min-jae Kim. So, whatever way you look at it, it’s a good thing that he’s staying.’ Manchester United reportedly agreed personal terms with Kim back in 2023 but the South Korean favoured a move to German giants Bayern Munich. Maguire and Yoro are expected to start United’s Premier League opener against Hull City next weekend after Martinez picked up another injury during Argentina’s World Cup final defeat to Spain.

Newcastle United have turned their attention to Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba as Matthias Jaissle looks to rebuild a midfield transformed by two major summer departures.

The Community Shield is taking centre stage this weekend (Picture: Getty) Arsenal take on Manchester City in the Community Shield on Sunday with the first piece of silverware of the season up for grabs. But the traditional curtain-raiser will not be staged at Wembley, with the Principality Stadium in Cardiff hosting the game instead. This is because The Weekend have booked Wembley from August 14 until August 19 as part of their ‘After Hours Til Dawn’ tour. This means Arsenal face a trip of around 130 miles from London to Cardiff, while Manchester City will be making their own 140 mile journey from the North West.

The clash in the Welsh capital will be the third time the Community Shield has taken place away from Wembley since the national stadium reopened in 2007. Villa Park played host to Chelsea vs Manchester City in 2012 when Wembley was being used to host football at the Olympics. And it was Leicester’s King Power Stadium that was chosen to host the 2022 edition between Manchester City and Liverpool, when Wembley was busy staging the Women’s European Championship final. Arsenal beat Manchester United in the 2005 FA Cup final in Cardiff (Picture: Getty) Principality is no stranger to hosting big games The Principality Stadium, which was referred to as the Millennium Stadium at the time, was the venue for the FA Cup final and the Community Shield between 2001 and 2006 and for the League Cup final between 2001 and 2007. Moving English football’s domestic cup finals to Cardiff was due to the old Wembley being demolished and the new Wembley being built in its place. The stadium was also chosen to host the 2017 Champions League final between Real Madrid and Juventus, which the Spanish giants won 4-1. Wales used the Millennium Stadium for their home games between 2000 and 2009, before moving the majority of their fixtures to the Cardiff City Stadium. The Principality Stadium mainly hosts rugby matches (Picture: Getty) The Welsh rugby team, meanwhile, has continuously used the venue for its home games since the stadium opened in 1999. The ground, which has a capacity of just under 74,000 and is the fourth-largest in the UK, will host six games at Euro 2028 including the opening match and a quarter-final. It is also the only major multi-purpose stadium in the UK which has a fully retractable roof – although it will be open for the game on Sunday.

The Guardian’s fans’ network looks ahead to the new season: fresh talent, weak links, and who will be sacked firstHaving finally got the title monkey off our back, and with much of the competition in a state of flux, there’s plenty of optimism. Obviously the target is for Arteta to sustain the same appetite and intensity to mount a credible defence. The big questions are whether we can reproduce the same resilience at the back with Saliba on the long-term missing list, and will the introduction of Guimarães be the catalyst for the sort of midfield chemistry we’ll need to carve open opponents who plan to park the bus?Bernard Azulay onlinegooner.com; @GoonerN5Jonathan Pritchard Continue reading...
After glory days of Park Ji-sung and Son Heung-min, the new season could be Korean-free for first time since 2005It has been a cruel summer for South Korea. The national team crashed and burned at the World Cup, the police are investigating the football association, reports have emerged about bribes paid to foreign referees in 2011 and 2012 and there is a real prospect of the the English Premier League being Korean-free for the first time since 2005.That was when Park Ji-sung signed for Manchester United, to start a love affair between the Land of the Morning Calm and England’s top tier that has continued ever since. Park won four titles and his mantle was taken over in 2015 by Son Heung-min at Spurs. Continue reading...
The two sides renew their rivalry this weekend (Picture: Getty) Arsenal and Manchester City meet in the Community Shield on Sunday with the first piece of silverware of the season set to be handed out. While the traditional curtain-raiser is viewed by some as little more than a glorified friendly, both teams will nevertheless be keen to head into the new campaign with a dose of positivity. But perhaps surprisingly, victory in the annual game does not historically translate to success in the Premier League season ahead. Of the past 15 teams to have won the Community Shield, only one side has gone on to win the league title at the end of that season. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. That team is Manchester City, who completed the Community Shield and Premier League double in the 2018/19 season. And in the Premier League era as a whole, only eight of the 34 winners of the Shield have gone on to win the trophy, with five of these happening in a six-year period from 2005 until 2010. As a matter of fact, the Community Shield runners-up have actually been more successful in the league than the winners themselves. Manchester City went on to win the league in 2018/19 (Picture: Getty) Since 1992, the losers have won ten league titles compared to the eight picked up by the winners. Three of these instances were Manchester City, who were beaten three seasons in a row between 2021 and 2023. And of the 34 Premier League winners, 15 weren’t even involved in the game itself. What’s more, the winners and runners-up have only finished as the top two teams in the Premier League on ten occasions. Last year’s winners, Crystal Palace, ended up finishing 15th in the league – although it was unrealistic to expect Oliver Glasner’s side to compete for the title. The beaten team, Liverpool, could only manage a disappointing fifth place under Arne Slot. Community Shield winners - league position 2011/12: Man Utd – 2nd 2012/13: Man City – 2nd 2013/14: Man Utd – 7th 2014/15: Arsenal – 3rd 2015/16: Arsenal – 2nd 2016/17: Man Utd – 6th 2017/18: Arsenal – 6th 2018/19: Man City – 1st 2019/20: Man City – 2nd 2020/21: Arsenal – 8th 2021/22: Leicester – 8th 2022/23: Liverpool – 5th 2023/24: Arsenal – 2nd 2024/25: Man City – 3rd 2025/26: Crystal Palace – 15th Who actually performs better in the Community Shield? Of the 34 Community Shield winners in the Premier League era, 18 won the league title in the previous season, while 13 were the FA Cup holders. But while the Premier League champions have a better success rate in the one-off game, the FA Cup winners have won eight of the past 12 Community Shields – including Palace last year. The other three Community Shield winners since 1992 were neither the Premier League nor FA Cup winners. Arsenal (1999 and 2023) and Manchester United (2010) only played in the game as Premier League runners-up and ended up beating the Double winners to claim the trophy.
