Man Utd stars celebrate Defining Education Challenge Cup after comeback win against Hong Kong
MANCHESTER UNITED stars lifted the Defining Education Challenge Cup by beating Hong Kong 3-1 earlier today. The catchily-named competition saw each Red Devils player also claim a shiny medal for their dismal efforts this season. 4 4 Just last week, Man Utd suffered Europa League final heartache by losing 1-0 to Tottenham in Bilbao. Three matches and 8,000 air-miles later, weary United flops have finally concluded their campaign with medals around their necks. Having beaten Aston Villa 2-0 last Sunday, Ruben Amorim 's men jetted straight to Malaysia, where they were subsequently embarrassed 1-0 by the hastily-put together ASEAN All-Stars. This afternoon they avoided such a humbling, although they were 1-0 down at half-time courtesy of a goal by Juninho. A second-half double by Chido Obi turned the contest around, before Ayden Heaven 's stoppage time goal clinched the Defining Education Challenge Cup for good. Man Utd stars, some more sheepishly than others, subsequently collected their medals. There was then a trophy lift - something that finally prompted a smile from wantaway star Alejandro Garnacho on this trip. United's post-season tour has been dominated by chatter regarding potential exits. 4 Garnacho, who was dropped for the Red Devils' final Premier League game, has been strongly linked with Napoli. During a press conference this week, Amad Diallo was asked about the possibility of Garnacho staying at United. Glum Man Utd stars take part in humiliating 'open-top bus parade' with no trophy and hardly any fans Amazingly, boss Ruben Amorim was spotted struggling to stifle a laugh as the question was delivered. Skipper Bruno Fernandes ' future has also come under microscope. While the Portuguese midfielder has been in Asia with United, his agent has reportedly been in Riyadh meeting with Al-Hilal club chiefs. The Saudi side are said to be willing to offer the Red Devils £100m for their captain and are readying a three-year tax-free deal worth around £200m. According to The Athletic, Fernandes is "seriously considering" making the move - with Al-Hilal wanting a quick response ahead of the Club World Cup. Asked about whether Fernandes will leave after picking him for today's kickabout with Hong Kong, boss Amorim claimed: "I don't think so. "I don't know for sure, nobody does. But I don't think so. "I think he wants to stay. He is saying no to a lot of things but it shows that he wants to win." 4

Alejandro Garnacho transfer odds: Chelsea and Tottenham in mix for Man Utd star
ALEJANDRO GARNACHO is on his way out of Manchester United after being told to find a new club. And despite Chelsea and Tottenham being in the mix for the winger, it's looking like a move abroad is most likely, according to the bookmaker odds. Reports have claimed United boss Ruben Amorim axed the Argentine in a brutal public dressing down in front of his teammates. Garnacho was unhappy with Amorim's decision to leave him out of the Europa League final that saw Man Utd losing to Spurs. He then slammed the Red Devils' "s*** season" before his brother lashed out on social media by claiming the club "threw him under the bus." Following that, it later emerged that Garnacho and Amorim's relationship had completely broken down. But he was used from the start in the club's second game in their post-season trip against Hong Kong, after seemingly being involved in a fan altercation. And United would demand around £60million to let the Argentine leave, reports claimed. It looks like his time at Old Trafford - and potentially in English football - is over, with a move abroad looking most likely. Napoli are the warm favourites to sign Garnacho and are priced at Evens with bet365. The Serie A champions have been linked with several big money moves as they look to defend their title and make a splash in the Champions League. Atletico Madrid are joined by Chelsea at 6/1, with the latter already strongly linked with Garnacho back in January. Staying at United is a bigger price still at 8/1, despite still having three years left on his current deal. Milan at 10/1 are just ahead of 12/1 Spurs, who are also looking to strengthen to compete better in the league whilst also making a go of things in the Champions League. Leverkusen and Aston Villa are both 14/1.

Alejandro Garnacho 'filmed PUSHING fan' as Man United's miserable post-season tour hits a new low - just a day after Amad Diallo stuck his middle finger up at fans in Malaysia
Manchester United 's miserable post-season tour sunk to a new low as Alejandro Garnacho became involved in an altercation with a fan in Malaysia. New footage has emerged of the United outcast, who is set to leave Old Trafford in the summer after a spat with Ruben Amorim, appearing to 'push' a supporter as he strided through the streets of Kuala Lumpur. The video, first posted on TikTok, shows a moody Garnacho, wearing sunglasses and a golden chain, ignoring the fan as he asks if he prefers Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. 'Bro, you pushed me,' the shocked supporter then exclaims. The incident heaps further misery on United, who were already humiliated after losing 1-0 to exhibition side ASEAN All-Stars on Wednesday. It comes just a day after Amad Diallo went viral for putting his middle fingers up at fans. 📸| Garnacho pushing a fan in Malaysia 🇲🇾 Think it's best that he's leaving in the summer he's ego is something else — UtdKev (@UtdKev8) May 30, 2025 The Ivorian was seen performing the obscene gesture as he left the team's hotel. The 22-year-old rushed to social media to admit he did not regret making the gesture and that it was in response to someone who shouted personal abuse relating to his mother. 'I have respect for people but not for the one who insults my mom…' he said on X. 'I shouldn't have reacted like that but I don't regret what I did. 'We had a great time in Malaysia with good people.' Meanwhile, Garnacho was brutally warned by Amorim that he needs to 'pray' he can find a new club in front of team-mates. Tensions skyrocketed after the Argentina international hit out at his boss for benching him in their Europa League final defeat to Tottenham last Wednesday The Red Devils went on to lose 1-0, with Garnacho only featuring for 20 minutes from bench and the Argentine failed to hide his frustration with Amorim as he admitted it had been a 's***' season for the club. His agent brother then added fuel to the fire by posting on Instagram that the winger had been 'thrown under the bus' by the Portuguese boss. Despite a turbulent week, Garnacho featured for United in their embarassing post-season friendly defeat to exhibition side ASEAN All-Stars on Wednesday before starting against Hong Kong on Friday. Fans are further convinced his days in Manchester are numbered after he appeared glum at a shirt signing event in Malaysia. Amad yesterday urged Garnacho to stay at United next season despite his fiery dispute with Amorim. Speaking ahead of their friendly against Hong Kong, Amad leapt to Garnacho's defence, claiming the dispute is not an issue for the team. The Ivorian said: 'Alejandro is a really good player and we need good players in the team. I know Garna really well, so I hope to have Garna next season. 'It is not really a big issue for the team. Everything is good now.' Although he is set to leave in the summer, he started in United's friendly against Hong Kong Garnacho was omitted from United's squad for their final game of the season against Villa and it would represent a remarkable u-turn if he were to remain at the club. His partner appeared to confirm his departure with a cryptic two-word message to fans on social media just hours before the Villa encounter. She posted a picture of a baby-sized United kit alongside the words 'last match', accompanied by a tearful emoji and a heart on Instagram. A sale would represent pure profit under financial fair play rules, as the winger came through the club's academy system.
