Man Utd transfer news LIVE: Callum Hudson-Odoi EXCLUSIVE, Mbeumo personal terms ‘already agreed, Ekitike latest
Manchester United are set to entertain offers for Mason Mount this summer, it's been claimed.
Former United scout Mick Brown said: "There is a possibility Mason Mount is sold.
"They put a lot of stock into getting him fit again and getting him back to where he was.
'He's played a number of games in succession now, but I think Amorim has made the decision that he doesn't think he's good enough.
'If they feel they can move him on and there's enough interest, they're prepared to do it. United will do the same thing with a few of their fringe players if offers are made.
'They've got Cunha and probably Mbeumo coming in to play in the positions he was being used in, so that is a sign of where he ranks in the squad.
'It's a shame he's had these injuries since he arrived from Chelsea because there is a top player in there. United just feel they can improve in that position and that may mean moving him on.'

Daniel Dubois' coach who played crucial role in Anthony Joshua fight QUITS just weeks after Oleksandr Usyk defeat
DANIEL DUBOIS' latest rebuild will have to happen without popular padman Kieran Farrell. The 35-year-old former lightweight - who almost lost his life in his final 2013 fight with fellow Manchester hero Anthony Crolla - played a pivotal role in Dubois' run to the IBF heavyweight world title win over Anthony Joshua. 2 2 But - following the shambolic build-up to the undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk, where the 27-year-old's dad threatened to pull his son from the fight if his unticketed entourage were not let into Wembley - Farrell has quietly parted company. Farrell said: 'I have made the decision to part ways with Team Dubois. 'In the 18 months we've achieved so much, including an unforgettable night at Wembley stadium. 'Helping Daniel become world heavyweight champion has been truly rewarding on a number of levels. I wish Daniel all the best going forward 'I won't be making any further comment at present, but needless to say I'm excited for what's next for myself and look forward to making many more world champions.' Farrell was brought on board by Dubois head trainer Don Charles but it remains to be seen if the Nigeria-born coach keeps his job in the aftermath of the underwhelming defeat. Charles defended Dave Dubois' decision to hold a gathering at the family home just hours before the July 19 bout. But the overbearing father has form for axing training teams, following stints with Martin Bowers at The Peacock gym and Shane McGuigan. Dubois was dropped twice in the fifth round by the Ukraine icon but did not suffer a concussive knockdown before being counted out. Promoter Frank Warren confirmed he will need around six months to recover and return.

‘Really good against mannequins' – Sir Alex Ferguson's son Darren launches furious rant about his own players
SIR ALEX FERGUSON'S son Darren was a chip off the old block with a furious rant aimed at his own players. The Peterborough United manager produced a scathing rant that his old man would be proud of after his side's "embarrassing" 2-1 defeat to Accrington Stanley in the EFL Cup on Tuesday night. 1 He also said his League One players would be "really good against mannequins" as they went 1-0 down inside ONE-MINUTE. They then conceded another goal on 25 minutes, before pulling one back late in the second-half. Ferguson said: 'I was embarrassed by the first half and so should the players be. "There are things you need to do to play for my teams and that was really missing in the first half. Does it really take a b********g from me and to be 2-0 down to wake up? "We're not that good. I have just asked them why that happened and I had no answer. 'It was nothing to do with formations. Our width comes from full backs and we don't get crosses into the box. "If I felt it was the formation I would say so. That was not to blame tonight. "I protect my team a lot, but I am not taking that one. That performance is on them. I don't say that often, but they have to take responsibility. I find it hard to defend that first half." Peterborough have lost all three of their opening games across all competitions and already sit all the way down in 21st in the table. Posh travel to the Brick Community Stadium to face Wigan Athletic in a league fixture on Saturday August 16. He added: "What we are is a really good team against mannequins but when teams tackle us, we are really struggling. "In that first half we so far away from what we expect, but you can't have a first half like that and expect to get through a cup game. "That is so far show from the desire, running, tackling etc we expect from a Peterborough United player. 'I try to stay positive but I find it hard to defend that first half. I'm embarrassed by the first half. There was no desire. It's a really disappointing night.'

Premier League 2025-26 preview No 16: Nottingham Forest
Guardian writers' predicted position: 12th (NB: this is not necessarily Will Unwin's prediction but the average of our writers' tips) Last season's position: 7th There is a sense they will need to be better in possession and dominate games because playing twice a week, once European competition begins, is especially difficult for a team who are chasing the ball and playing on the counter. The system has worked well for Nuno Espírito Santo in the past, but there is a sense evolution is required to keep Forest ahead of the game. Pre-season has brought an early shift in style and the change has been enthusiastically welcomed within the club. One problem has been evident: they are struggling to score. Forest played seven friendlies, scoring once and enduring five goalless draws. It was not ideal preparation for building on an incredibly successful year, but everyone will forget as long as early points are picked up. A lack of chances being created has not been the issue, more composure in front of goal, which could lead to another striker being welcomed. The loss of Anthony Elanga is a problem much time over recent weeks has been spent trying to solve. His electric pace was instrumental in Nuno's plans and finding a direct replacement is difficult when the predecessor probably could challenge for an Olympic sprinting medal, but there are high expectations of Dan Ndoye after his club-record signing. Considering everyone expected Morgan Gibbs-White to join Tottenham for £60m, the fact he has stayed and signed a new three-year contract is incredible news for the club. Evangelos Marinakis has received plenty of criticism since Forest's promotion, but deserves credit for single-handedly taking on the role of convincing Gibbs-White to commit at the City Ground. Forest fell short in the hunt for the Champions League as tiredness crept into a shallow squad late on and are waiting for more depth to be added. A full-back, midfielder, winger and striker remain on the shopping list. Nuno can do no wrong after leading Forest into Europe for the first time in 30 years. There is plenty of quiet charm to the former goalkeeper, who keeps things simple around the training ground and is respected by everyone who comes into contact with him. He may want to push on from finishing an incredible seventh, but maintaining the stability he has brought is the most important thing. Balancing domestic and continental competitions will be imperative because it is a fine balance for a mid-table side. The former Arsenal sporting director Edu has joined the wider group as global head of football. It may explain why the Brazilian/Botafogo market has been further explored, as does the close relationship between Marinakis and John Textor, but the wider effect is yet to be seen. The Gibbs-White saga with Forest complaining about an alleged illegal approach by Tottenham, and the wait to find out whether the club would be in the Europa League or Conference League, ensured things were not calm. Forest were granted planning permission to expand the City Ground to 35,000 by constructing a new 10,000-seat stand. Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion Ndoye is their record signing and the decision to spend €40m on the Swiss winger was not made lightly. A replacement for Elanga was needed and Ndoye was quickly targeted after shining with Bologna, helping them reach the Champions League and gaining some European experience. At 24, there is room for improvement, which fits the club's transfer strategy. He is not as quick as Elanga, but his stats are impressive, including scoring eight goals and creating another four in 30 Serie A appearances last season. An eagerness to test himself in the Premier League was key to the move. Zach Abbott signed a new four-year deal during the summer and is extremely highly thought of at the City Ground. He was given a surprise first start at right-back in the FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City, having started in his more regular centre-back role against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup, and will be eager to build on the experience. The 19-year-old has been part of the first-team squad for the past couple of seasons but has made three appearances and is yet to appear in the Premier League. Considering the increase in matches caused by European qualification, it feels inevitable he will get more opportunities. Taiwo Awoniyi helped keep Forest in the top flight with crucial goals in his first season. Fitness and form have since caused the Nigerian problems, and it has not helped him that Chris Wood has become one of the finest strikers in the Premier League, limiting Awoniyi's chances. It combined to leave him with two goals from 32 games last season. Awoniyi looked sharp in pre-season, giving the impression his physicality, speed and finishing could again be an asset to Nuno, but will need an early goal to ignite his confidence.
