Ferdinand Tells Gyokeres to Join Arsenal Instead of Man United
Manchester United icon Rio Ferdinand has advised transfer target Viktor Gyokeres to consider a move to Arsenal instead of Old Trafford. Speaking on talkSPORT, Ferdinand admitted he’s not fully convinced the Sporting CP striker is the right fit for United at this time. He pointed out that Gyokeres has struggled when up against strong defenders in high-level matches like the Champions League.
“I haven’t seen enough to be fully sold,” he said, noting that physical battles against top-level defenders didn’t seem to work in the striker’s favour. Ferdinand also believes United should prioritise more experienced players right now, rather than taking a risk.
Gyokeres, 27, currently has a €100 million release clause in his contract with Sporting. However, the club is reportedly open to selling if an offer of at least €70 million comes in this summer.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
