Arsenal and Man United track 23-year-old rival midfielder ahead of potential move
Arsenal and Manchester United are keen on Brighton midfielder Yasin Ayari, the 23‑year‑old Swedish international who has logged 85 games, eight goals and four assists since joining from AIK in January 2023. Both Premier League giants see him as a versatile option to add defensive stability and transitional play, while Brighton aim to extend his contract and have an option to retain him. AC Milan also circles the player, making a summer 2027 move the likely window for any formal bids.

Man United face Liverpool transfer battle for Premier League ace with €65m valuation
Manchester United are eyeing Crystal Palace winger Ismaila Sarr, valued at €65 million, as they hunt attacking reinforcements for the January window. The 28‑year‑old Senegal international, who joined Palace from Marseille in 2024 and helped secure a Conference League title, draws interest from Liverpool and Newcastle United as well.

Man United could extend Lisandro Martinez’s contract but not for the reason fans might think
Manchester United plan to activate a one‑year extension in Lisandro Martínez’s contract, not to cement his future but to protect the £56 million investment. After a public outburst against senior staff following a 2‑0 Champions League loss to Atlético Madrid and ongoing fitness concerns, United risk losing the 28‑year‑old defender on a free. Extending the deal gives United leverage to command a fee, with clubs like Atlético Madrid reportedly watching. The move signals an exit strategy rather than a long‑term role for Martínez at Old Trafford.
