EPL 2023-24: Can new look Man United under Ten Hag challenge Man City?

The stakes are higher for Erik ten Hag in his second season at Manchester United. A year into one of the most daunting jobs in world soccer, the Dutch coach has spent big and made some even bigger calls. As a result, he is now expected to bring the good times back to United. While Ten Hag's first season was a success on many levels, there were also blunt reminders of the work needed to be done to turn his team into a genuine Premier League title contender. He delivered his first trophy by winning the League Cup and also secured a return to the UEFA Champions League. There were notable wins against Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Barcelona, as well as a feel-good factor among supporters after a decade of decline since the retirement of United great Alex Ferguson. Under Ten Hag's guidance, Marcus Rashford scored a career-best 30 goals. Those were the highs. At the other end of the scale, there were humbling losses. United was routed 4-0 by Brentford, 6-3 by City and 7-0 b

Manchester United renews Adidas partnership by 10 yrs in deal of over $1 bn

Manchester United announced a 10-year extension to its partnership with Adidas that the English club said Monday will be worth more than $1 billion. United's deal with the German sportswear brand as its official uniform supplier runs to 2035 and "has a minimum cash guarantee of 900 million pounds (USD 1.15 billion), subject to certain adjustments," the team said, making it the most lucrative in Premier League history. "It is very natural for us to continue our cooperation," Adidas CEO Bjorn Gulden said. "We will combine tradition and innovation to please both the players and the fans." "We look forward to continuing our partnership with one of the most iconic clubs in football." The deal for the club's single biggest source of revenue provides stability at a time when it is up for sale, with United's American ownership weighing up offers from Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani and English businessman Jim Ratcliffe.

Man United sign goalkeeper Andre Onana from Inter Milan for $57 million

Manchester United completed the signing of goalkeeper Andre Onana from Inter Milan for 51 million euros (USD 57 million) on Thursday, reuniting Erik ten Hag with a player with whom he won three Dutch titles at Ajax. Onana has joined on a five-year contract. There is also an option to extend the deal by a further 12 months and United will have to pay 4 million euros (USD 4.5 million) in add-ons, dependent on his success at the club. "To join Manchester United is an incredible honour and I have worked hard all my life to get to this moment, overcoming many obstacles along the way," the Cameroon goalkeeper said. Onana will join up with his new teammates on their preseason tour of the United States. He replaces David de Gea, who announced his departure from United after 12 years at the club earlier this month. Comfortable with the ball at his feet, Onana should allow Ten Hag to implement his plans to build play from defense, which he struggled to do with De Gea last season. Onana's .

Bruno Fernandes replaces Harry Maguire as Manchester United's new captain

Portugal midfielder Bruno Fernandes is the new captain of Manchester United. The Premier League club announced the appointment on Thursday. Fernandes has scored 64 goals with 54 assists in 185 games since joining United in 2020 from Sporting Lisbon. Harry Maguire tweeted Sunday that he was no longer captain of United following talks with manager Erik ten Hag. The central defender made just eight league starts last season, leading to ongoing speculation over his future at Old Trafford. In Maguire's absence from the side last season, the 28-year-old Fernandes was most frequently appointed captain and had been widely expected to be given the permanent role. He featured in all but one of the team's league fixtures as United finished third to return to the Champions League for the first time since 2021. The squad arrived in the United States on Thursday for a 12-day tour, though Ten Hag will be without midfielder Fred who has remained in England because of personal reasons.

De Gea's Man Utd exit paves the way for Ten Hag's tactical transformation

Replacing David de Gea won't be easy. No Premier League goalkeeper kept more clean sheets last season than De Gea, who announced his departure on Saturday, and in 12 years at Manchester United he was named the club's player of the year on four occasions. He leaves United as a legend, having been part of its last league title-winning team and lifting four major trophies with the club. But his exit also paves the way for a transition that many fans feel is long overdue. At his best, De Gea was a match-winning shot-stopper with the agility and speed of reaction to pull off astounding saves. In recent years, however, he has looked like a player out of his time as soccer has demanded more from keepers, with Manchester City and Liverpool two standout examples of how the position has been transformed. England's two most dominant teams of the past five years have exploited the ball-playing qualities of their keepers. Ederson, at City, and Alisson, at Liverpool, look as comfortable with t
