Man Utd Hold Talks to Sign Newcastle’s Lewis Hall in Last 2/3 Days

Published

on


Manchester United have held talks over the last two or three days to secure a new signing, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Signing a new midfielder appears to be Manchester United’s priority, even though they are close to completing a new addition.

Reports have claimed that a deal is done for Atalanta midfielder Ederson to join the club, despite no official confirmation just yet.

Up next for United could be the signature of West Ham midfielder Mateus Fernandes, with one journalist even claiming that the Portuguese star will end up at United this summer.

After solving the midfield situation, attention will likely turn to other positions, as there’s no doubt the Red Devils need reinforcements all over the pitch.

Man Utd Hold Talks Over Last 2/3 Days

According to Italian journalist Romano, over the last two or three days, Manchester United have kept contacts alive and active with those close to Newcastle defender Lewis Hall.

The Red Devils made contact a few weeks ago, but they’ve kept talks up recently with the England international, someone they ‘really love’.

“I wanted to mention something on Manchester United, because over the last two, three days, Manchester United kept the contacts alive and active with those close to Lewis Hall, the left back from Newcastle. Manchester United already made contact a few weeks ago. Manchester United have genuine interest in the player. They really like Lewis Hall, so he’s one of the targets. Of course, we know Manchester United are going to be busy with midfielders, that area of the pitch for Man United remains a priority, because Ederson is coming, Ederson is done. But then after Ederson, one more midfielder- at least it could be two, we will see- but one more midfielder will join Manchester United. Then left back remains a position they want to cover. Lewis Hall is a player they really, really love at Manchester United.”

Newcastle have already lost Anthony Gordon to Barcelona this summer, while the likes of Sandro Tonali and Hall are being heavily linked with departures.

United are looking to take advantage, and it’s likely a positive for them that Hall isn’t at the World Cup with England.

Hall the Perfect Shaw Replacement

Hall, described as elite, could be the perfect replacement for Luke Shaw in the long term.

United left back Shaw has seemingly got over his injury issues, starting every Premier League game last season, but he has had fitness problems over the last few years.

The English defender isn’t getting any younger, so signing a long-term replacement would be a smart move, and Hall could be that ideal man.

Hall is certainly ready to be a guaranteed starter at United, but learning and competing with Shaw could be beneficial to his development.

The issue United now have is convincing Newcastle to part ways for a reasonable fee.

What Jordan McCann Said After Biting Him

Ibiza Final Boss has revealed exactly what his opponent Jordan McCann said to him after sensationally biting him during their grudge boxing match on the undercard of Tommy Fury vs Eddie Hall in Manchester.

Final Boss, whose real name is Jack Kay, shot to fame on social media while on holiday in the iconic destination. On Saturday night, he laced up the gloves for the very first time as he took on Salford-based rapper and content creator McCann in a four-round bout.

Their contest will live long in the memory, but not for the technical skill on show. Both men were exhausted by the end of the first round as they winged punches at each other.

Ibiza Final Boss was the slightly more accurate fighter, despite McCann having trained alongside former unified world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. ‘The Gypsy King’ even accompanied Jordan on his ring walk at the AO Arena.

Once the opening round was over, the fight truly descended into chaos, with McCann headbutting his foe and even rugby tackling him through the ropes before the end of the bout.

However, the fight’s most viral moment came when Jordan channelled his inner Mike Tyson and bit the Ibiza Final Boss’ ear, mirroring Iron’s Mike infamous foul against Evander Holyfield in 1997.

While Tyson was disqualified in that instance, McCann’s bite went unpunished by the referee. Justice was done, in a sense, when the Final Boss was awarded a majority decision victory on the judges’ scorecards.

After the fight, McCann had plenty to say to the crowd who were loudly booing him, but apparently didn’t have many words for his opponent, even after trying to take a chunk out of him.

Following his debut victory, Ibiza Final Boss sat down with iFL TV to reflect upon the events of the evening. Asked whether McCann had said anything to him after the bout, the victorious fighter confirmed:

“I passed him in the corridor. He shook my hand and said: ‘Respect. You just beat me in my home town.’

Despite the controversial nature of the fight and the fact that the capacity crowd in Manchester couldn’t get enough of the spectacle, neither man called for a rematch afterwards.

McCann confirmed that financial gain was his main motivation for taking the fight as he revealed his salary to the crowd in a post-fight rant.

“Whoever boos me is a scruff. All your birds are fat sl***. I’ll sh** all your birds. I got paid 50 grand, and now I’m gonna marry my girlfriend and buy my mam a new kitchen!”

BBC Make Apology Over World Cup Coverage During Scotland 1-1 Haiti

Published

This summer at the 2026 World Cup, two British teams will compete. England are hoping to win their first major trophy since 1966, while Scotland are back in the tournament once more, after a 28-year absence.

Thomas Tuchel’s men are yet to play, but the Scots got off to the perfect start as they beat Haiti 1-0 in their game of Group C. In the end, John McGin’s strike in the 28th minute was enough to hand the Tartan Army only their fifth win in all World Cup history.

Steve Clarke’s team were not at their best, as they picked up all three points in a somewhat unconvincing manner, but there were positive signs amid the nerves. Crucially, the win leaves Scotland top of their group, with tougher games against Morocco and Brazil (who played out a 1-1 draw) to come.

BBC Apologise for World Cup Coverage Issue

As Scottish fans gathered to watch their team compete at their first World Cup since 1998, there would have been one huge moment of frustration among the supporters, which didn’t relate to anything happening on the pitch. Indeed, at one point, the BBC were forced to apologise for a loss of picture during the game against Haiti.

Midway through the first-half, viewers lost coverage of the match, which was being played in Boston, the United States. For a short period, a patchy screen with a harsh buzzing sound appeared on screen.

However, this was not due to any direct issues with the BBC, but rather a problem with the world feed, which saw a testcard shown along with the words ‘ESF UHD C’ appearing, as the whole thing lasted around five seconds.

Fortunately, no major incidents were missed in the game, but the BBC reacted with an immediate statement, which was given by commentator Liam McLeod. As per the Mirror, he explained live on air:

“Apologies again if there’s a loss of picture, it’s a World Feed problem so everyone suffered it. But you’re back with us now.”

At the same time, a message at the top of the screen read: “Sorry for the loss of picture.”

This isn’t the only technical error at the tournament so far either. During BBC coverage of Brazil’s draw 1-1 with Morocco, a bizarre conversation, likely from the BBC production team, could be heard over the commentators. An unexpected voice said: “Guest feed is good if you’re happy with that, thank you,” before counting up to 10 quickly and shouting “GOAL, GOAL, GOAL!” despite not goal happening in the match at that point.

Steve Clarke Believes Pressure is off Scotland Ahead of Morocco and Brazil Fixtures

After the win, Scotland manager Clarke spoke to the press and chose to focus on the positives, insisting that the pressure has now been eased on his squad. He explained:

“I am absolutely delighted with my players. Resilience, character had to be on the pitch tonight. There is no relief. Everyone told us it was a must-win game and we won. When you win a must-win game, you have to be happy with yourselves.”

Looking toward the games against Morocco and then Brazil, he went on to add:

“We go into them with less pressure than everybody put on to us going into this game. If we defend as well as we did here, hopefully play a little bit better with the ball and create more, we will be OK. It’s not about raising the performance, it is about a different approach against a different opponent.

“Towards the end, you know you are 1-0 up and have something to hang on to so that is what you do. The players deserve a lot of credit. I thought Haiti were terrific at denying us time and space, which made it difficult. So the other characteristics that get you three points come out. That is why we are sitting here with three points and Haiti are empty handed.”

Man Utd in Intense Battle to Sign Hoffenheim Winger Bazoumana Toure

Manchester United are now in an intense battle to sign a Bundesliga forward ahead of the summer transfer window, facing competition from rival Premier League clubs.

A lot of the talk surrounding Manchester United over the last few weeks has been around potential midfield signings, but they are also in the market to reinforce other positions.

The World Cup is always an interesting time to try to do deals, with players occupied by the international tournament and clubs reluctant to sell in case the player’s value can increase.

Thankfully for United, it looks as though they managed to secure the signing of Brazilian midfielder Ederson before he jetted off to the tournament.

A deal for Ederson has yet to be officially confirmed, but reports suggest that a move has been completed.

According to a report from German outlet Bild, via Sport Witness, Manchester United are one of three clubs in an intense battle to sign Hoffenheim winger Bazoumana Toure ahead of the summer transfer window.

It’s claimed that the tricky winger could cost at least £35m, with Brentford and Newcastle the other clubs showing an interest in securing his signature.

Toure has a contract with the Bundesliga club until 2029, and there is no release clause, meaning Hoffenheim are under no pressure to sell.

The report describes the 20-year-old as a player with ‘blistering pace’ and a ‘carefree attitude’, with Premier League clubs now pushing to sign him this summer.

Added Pace Could Suit Michael Carrick

Adding someone of Toure’s directness and pace could be hugely beneficial to United due to the style that Michael Carrick has implemented.

The Red Devils like to transition from defence to attack as quickly as possible, and someone like Toure would take them to the next level in terms of that.

The 20-year-old, tipped as a “future Ballon d’Or contender”, is unlikely to come in and be a guaranteed starter, but when United are looking to protect the lead and hit teams on the counter-attack, Toure could be a real weapon off the bench.

United won’t want to pay an awful lot for a player who is unlikely to start, but if they can pick him up for a reasonable fee, it could be a smart signing.
