After their Premier League win over Fulham, Manchester United are now shifting their attention to the upcoming match against Brighton, while also keeping an eye on the transfer market.
Joshua Zirkzee made an immediate impact at Old Trafford, netting an 87th-minute winner on Friday night. The £36 million signing was joined by Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt, who also made their debuts following a £60 million double transfer from Bayern Munich.
Mazraoui started the match, while De Ligt came off the bench. As United continue to strengthen Erik ten Hag’s squad, the question now is how soon De Ligt will secure a spot in the starting lineup.
Meanwhile, despite ongoing speculation about his future, Jadon Sancho appears to be staying at United for now. The former Borussia Dortmund winger, who was left out against Fulham, was seen training on Monday morning alongside Facundo Pellistri, Antony, and other first-team players.
With players like Pellistri potentially on the way out, Sancho’s participation in Monday’s session suggests he could still play a role in United’s plans. Here’s a closer look at what happened at Carrington during the training session and what it might mean for United in the days ahead.
