On May 6, a Hupu-related incident occurred on this day. Chris Wheeler, a reporter for the Manchester United team from the Daily Mail, and his team wrote an exclusive weekly report.
Gunners covet Kobbie Mainoo
Kobe Menu's winning goal against Liverpool on Sunday provided a clearer picture of the young midfielder's potential and why United went to such trouble to sign him to a long-term contract.
This was Menu's first appearance since signing a new six-year contract with a weekly salary of 150,000 pounds. He scored in the 77th minute. This goal helped Manchester United beat their old rivals 3-2. This was a perfect celebration.
Alan Keegan, the popular Old Trafford matchday announcer, accurately captured the atmosphere inside the stadium, shouting that the goal scorer was Manchester native No. 37 Kobe Menu, which drew thunderous cheers from the Manchester United fans.
Even though it seems unimaginable at the moment that Menu would leave Manchester United, this frustrated young player was once very close to leaving the team when Ruben Amorim was in charge, and there must have been no shortage of suitors at that time!
In addition to Naples, that is Menu's favorite place to go on loan. According to people familiar with the situation, Arsenal was also one of the many Premier League clubs that paid attention to Menu. They have been watching and waiting for the development of the situation. In the end, Menu stayed in the team, and the Gunners will become a punctuation mark among the clubs competing with Manchester United in the midfield signing market this summer.
At the same time, the 21-year-old player not only signed a new contract, but also had a tribute song dedicated to Manchester United fans. The song is adapted from Billy Ocean's "Love Really Hurts Without You", with the lyrics: "Menu, without you, Manchester United can't play football, without you, Manchester United can't play football, and if you don't start, my heart will be broken."
Miami could be a good option for Casemiro
Although Mateus Cunha has made some ambiguous remarks about Casemiro's future at Old Trafford, people familiar with the situation revealed that there is no possibility of Manchester United changing their minds on Casemiro's contract, and Casemiro himself is also leaning towards a move to Inter Miami this summer.
After Manchester United's 3-2 victory over Liverpool on Sunday, Cunha mentioned the possibility that Casemiro, his Manchester United and Brazil national team teammate, might stay with the team for another year. He said, "In the end, we have no way of knowing exactly what the status of his contract will be. Of course, everyone hopes that he can renew for another year. No one can say for sure."
However, the decision not to renew Casemiro's contract was made by the club, and Manchester United still adhered to this decision even while looking for a replacement.
According to the relevant terms in the contract, if Casemiro starts a total of 35 games in the last three games of the season against Sunderland, Nottingham Forest and Brighton, then the contract will be automatically extended for 12 months. However, he has agreed to waive this clause in the contract.
The 34-year-old player will leave the team as a free agent. It is understood that if he moves to the Major League Soccer League, also known as MLS, he is more inclined to join Messi's Inter Miami team instead of the Los Angeles Galaxy.
It is said that after vacationing in Florida, Casemiro's family is also interested in moving there, and Casemiro himself is also very eager to have the opportunity to play alongside Messi.
In order to comply with MLS regulations, Beckham's club still has to leave some space in the salary structure, and Casemiro also has to accept a salary reduction. However, judging from the current situation, the possibility of this deal being reached is quite high.
