Cunha has a release clause worth ยฃ62.5million ($84.4m), which Manchester United have asked to pay over five years rather than the required two, but Wolves expect the contractual requirements to be met.

Manchester Unitedโs Old Trafford stadium has been given a two-star food hygiene rating after mouse droppings were found in multiple hospitality areas. The inspection report from the Trafford Council, which was completed on April 16, gave recognition that โsignificant work has taken place to control the mice activity on siteโ but found that seven different areas of the stadium โ including the Ambassador Lounge, the Number 7 Suite and the Devilโs Bar โ contained rodent droppings. A number of other issues were highlighted in the report from the environmental health experts, including open containers of condiments that exceeded the recommended label dates of the manufacturerโs instructions. One example highlighted how a pesto container had a โone-monthโ label on it despite manufacturer instructions to use within eight days. ๐ https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6385183/?source=whatsappmu

Sir Jim Ratcliffe cited a "body language consultant on ยฃ175,000 a year" as an example of Manchester United's excess when he justified his cost-cutting regime earlier this year. The identity of that consultant can now be revealed by The Athletic to be Kirsten Heukels. The reality is Heukelsโ remarkable work goes beyond that of a โbody language consultantโ โ and her impact at United was felt during their FA Cup triumph in 2023-24, which generated the club millions of pounds in revenues as the win earned them a spot in this seasonโs Europa League, where they eventually reached the final. After discovering Heukelsโ identity, The Athletic travelled to Rotterdam to discuss her work, how she prepared the team for spot-kick success on the way to winning the FA Cup and what she made of Ratcliffeโs comments. ๐ https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6380839/?source=whatsappmu

Antony was a โฌ95m outcast at United but since joining Real Betis he's been one of the best players in Spain.
