Carrick confident over more new signings (Picture: Niall Carson/PA Wire) Manchester United have enquired into a move for Liverpool transfer target Ibrahim Mbaye. Liverpool have explored a move for the Paris Saint-Germain youngster this summer as they seek to strengthen their wide options ahead of the start of the new season following Mohamed Salah’s exit. Mbaye, 18, made his debut for the French champions in August 2024 aged just 16 but with some of European football’s best attacking players ahead of him in the pecking order at Parc de Princes, the right winger is considering his options this summer. Liverpool are also interested in signing another PSG star in Bradley Barcola with the France international believed to be their top target. 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. Signing both players could set them back as much as €200million (£171m) while reports this week have suggested Andoni Iraola’s side deem PSG’s €50m (£42m) asking price for Mbaye to be too expensive. While Liverpool’s interest may be cooling, there is no shortage of other suitors. A string of European clubs have approached PSG over a move including Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Aston Villa and Roma with AS also naming United among the sides to have reached out. Mbaye is on the radar of a host of clubs (Picture: UEFA via Getty Images) United were keen to strengthen their wide options this summer but with Marcus Rashford now looking set to stay at Old Trafford, improving other positions is a more pressing matter. United have signed Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans to strengthen their midfield but Michael Carrick is keen on one more option in the middle of the park. Another left-back is also being sought with Carrick explaining this week the club are still pushing hard on all fronts. United have made two signings in midfield (Picture: Manchester United via Getty Images) ‘We’ve improved the group. We’ve improved the squad in different ways. Balance, quality and the direction we want to go in,’ Carrick said. ‘So the players that we’ve brought in, I think we’ve done really good business and we’ve got some top, top, top players. So we’re delighted with that. We always want to improve. ‘We want more, we need more. We keep looking forward to how we can do that. So that never stops. We’re conscious of that and we’ve got to keep pushing.’ Comment now Comments Add Metro as a Preferred Source on Google Add as preferred source

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.

Ahead of the beginning of the 2026-27 season without, Cristiano Ronaldo's new coach Ange Postecoglou made an honest take on Al Nassr's trophy hopes: "I don't promise anything." Cristiano Ronaldo has officially rejoined his teammates and completed his first training session at Al Nassr as the squad prepares for the 2026-27 season under new management. However, new head coach Ange Postecoglou was quick to temper expectations ahead of the upcoming campaign, stating plainly: “I do not promise anything.“ Last season, Jorge Jesus was appointed by Al Nassr to snap a multi-year silverware drought, ultimately guiding the club to a Saudi Pro League title. With Jesus now taking charge of the Portugal national team, Postecoglou was brought in as his replacement, tasked with maintaining that championship momentum. Speaking at Thursday’s press conference at the Dar Al Nassr training complex, Postecoglou was asked about the road ahead following a demanding preseason in which Al Nassr posted a 1-3 record: “When we spoke about the challenges, we were aware that there were different circumstances and challenges, but whatever the circumstances, we have to deal with them and prepare well.“ While he stopped short of guaranteeing trophies, the new Al Nassr boss made no secret of his ambition for his debut campaign in Saudi Arabia. “Of course, I do not promise anything, and I have always achieved something in my first season,” he said. “The matter is simply that wherever I go, I love to achieve success,” he added. The captain is back. The message is clear 💛Coach Ange: “The league starts today” 🟡 pic.twitter.com/I8BLGWgPIo— AlNassr FC (@AlNassrFC_EN) August 13, 2026 Unlike last season, Al Nassr will be competing in the AFC Champions League Elite, Asia’s premier continental tournament, alongside their domestic duties in the Saudi Pro League, the King’s Cup, and the Saudi Super Cup. Ronaldo’s side missed out on the top competition last year, finishing as runners-up in the AFC Champions League Two, but punched their ticket back to the elite tier by winning the SPL title. Postecoglou and his second-season pedigree Under contract through June 2028, Postecoglou’s tenure with the Saudi club extends beyond Ronaldo’s current deal, which runs through June 2027. However, much of the Australian manager’s famed track record has come during his second years in charge, a pattern he readily acknowledges. During his time at Tottenham Hotspur, he famously declared, “I always win things in my second year. Nothing has changed. I don’t say things unless I believe them,” a claim that has consistently held up. That history of second-year triumphs spans stops at South Melbourne, Brisbane Roar, Yokohama F. Marinos, Celtic, and Tottenham, where he ended the club’s 17-year trophy drought by winning the 2024-25 UEFA Europa League. Postecoglou also became the first manager from his country to take charge of a Saudi Pro League side, a milestone he proudly highlighted. “I am proud of where I am working now. I am an Australian born in Greece, and I have become the first Australian coach in Saudi Arabia, just as I was in England and Japan,” he said during the press conference.

Chelsea reportedly already have two potential replacements in mind for Enzo Fernández, in case the Argentine departs for Manchester City. Chelsea are preparing contingency plans in case Enzo Fernandez departs for Manchester City, with the Premier League leaders reportedly closing in on a deal worth up to £120 million for the Argentine midfielder. According to Fabrizio Romano, City have been given until Friday to submit their final offer, putting real pressure on both clubs to resolve the situation quickly. Rather than wait to see how things unfold, Chelsea have already begun scouting potential replacements. According to Team Talk’s Graeme Bailey, two names have emerged as the club’s primary targets: Alex Scott of Bournemouth, a 22-year-old who has already seen previous approaches rejected by his club, and Adam Wharton of Crystal Palace, another 22-year-old who has impressed enough to draw interest from multiple top sides. Scott in particular has been a recurring target for Chelsea across recent transfer windows, with Bournemouth also having turned down interest from Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United for the midfielder. Wharton, meanwhile, would represent a similarly significant investment, with both moves expected to require substantial fees regardless of which player Chelsea ultimately pursues. 🚨🔵 Chelsea are yet to receive any official bid for Enzo Fernández as of 4pm UK time today — 25 hours before the deadline for the exit.#CFC do not change their stance: £120m net, no Euros and with payment terms details clarified to all parties already since May. pic.twitter.com/5JYHI7rPO4— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) August 13, 2026 For now, everything hinges on what happens with Fernandez. Should Manchester City meet Chelsea’s valuation before Friday’s deadline, the west London club appears ready to move quickly on one of its two identified targets to fill the void in midfield. Where things stand with Rodri Much of City’s urgency around Fernandez traces back to their own ongoing situation with Rodri. Barcelona have been negotiating to sign the Spanish midfielder, with City having rejected an initial offer before Barcelona reportedly returned with an improved proposal in the region of €65-70 million. Nothing is finalized yet, but reports suggest Rodri would prefer a move to Barcelona over any other option, and City have only shown real interest in bringing in Fernandez as insurance if the Spaniard midfielder does eventually leave. City have already made moves in midfield According to Fabrizio Romano, Ayyoub Bouaddi is set to become a new City player once the move is formally announced, while Tijjani Reijnders’ transfer to Al-Qadsiah is reportedly close to being finalized — signaling City are already reshaping their midfield regardless of how the Fernandez and Rodri situations ultimately play out.
