Pallister Tells Man United to Sign Isak Because He’s the Best Striker Right Now
Former Manchester United defender Gary Pallister has urged the club to prioritise signing Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, saying he would be the perfect fit for the Red Devils. Speaking with Metro, Pallister explained that while other strikers like Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting CP and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen have been linked to the club, Isak stands out because of his proven record in the Premier League.
“Alexander Isak is proven in the Premier League,” Pallister said. “He would be my ideal signing for United. He’s the one I believe can help the club get back to their best. United badly need a reliable goalscorer.” Liverpool are also reportedly in the race for Isak and Osimhen as they look to strengthen their attack ahead of next season.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United are determined to keep Isak after securing a UEFA Champions League spot, but reports suggest they will only consider offers in the region of £200 million for the Swedish striker.
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.”
