Man Utd transfer news LIVE: Italians ‘chase Hojlund', Mbeumo's wage demands, Jim Ratcliffe plans major reshuffle
United given warning Manchester United have been warned not to make the same mistake with Kobbie Mainoo that they did with Scott McTominay by former player Wes Brown. The Red Devils sold the Scottish midfielder only for him to lead Napoli to the Serie A title. Speaking to BoyleSports, who offer the latest Club World Cup odds, Brown said: 'Man United need to avoid their Scott McTominay mistake with Kobbie Mainoo. 'With Scott, I always thought he should've been played further forward because although he is a big lad, he has so much energy and that was wasted when he was a holding midfielder. 'I just hope that Ruben Amorim tries Mainoo out in a few different positions because he is so good on the ball and technically gifted. 'I'm sure he'll be disappointed he's not played as much this season, I just hope he gets more game time and can prove to the manager what he can do. He is an England international for a reason and can be a big success for United for years to come.'

Wayne Rooney delights Man Utd fans with unexpected Champions League admission
Manchester United's all-time record goalscorer is in Bilbao ahead of Wednesday night's Europa League final showdown with fellow Premier League side Tottenham, where he took to the stage at a fan zone in front of thousands and made quite the bizarre admission Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has told fans how he watched Sister Act as he prepared for his Champions League final in 2008. Appearing at the United fan zone in Bilbao, Rooney also backed his old team to beat Spurs tonight in the Europa League final - so the fans can enjoy a few 'bevvies'. Thousands attended the zone in a park above the city, as United's all-time record goalscorer Rooney went on stage with fellow former stars including defender Wes Brown, ex-striker Andy Cole and legendary former full-back Denis Irwin. And he told the cheering crowd: 'I remember the final in 2008, I went in the room and watched Sister Act.' United are looking to put a miserable season behind them by winning the Europa League against fellow Premier League side Tottenham - themselves looking to win European silverware and put a dismal domestic campaign behind them. Europa League success is estimated to be worth around £100million to the victor, but glory is the main focus for those that have taken all manner of weird and wonderful routes to the Basque country. There have been predictions of 80,000 fans heading to the all-English final in Bilbao, where the sparsity of accommodation options has seen supporters spill into surrounding cities like San Sebastian and Vitoria. Rooney added: 'It's so good to be here, I hope the lads tonight give everyone the chance to go and get a few bevvies and enjoy the night.' When asked how many goals he would score in this current United side he said: 'I would like to think me and Coley would have scored more than the forwards have this season. It's been a tough season, difficult to watch. But to have the opportunity to win a European trophy and get back in the Champions League, I hope they can get the club back to where it needs to be.' Wes Brown told the United fans: 'I was out late last night - let's hope I can go out late tonight.' United can lift a trophy for the third straight season, having won the Carabao Cup in 2023 and then last season's FA Cup under Erik ten Hag. Successor Ruben Amorim has the chance to continue that run and help kickstart a much-needed rebuild, with skipper Bruno Fernandes dreaming of lifting the Europa League aloft on Wednesday evening. 'It won't change the past, it won't affect what the past has done to us either,' the United skipper said. 'But what it can affect is the future. 'Obviously winning a competition gives you a lot of things. In this case you get a place in the Champions League, a lot of revenue for the club, it gets more players wanting to come to the club. I think that at this club it doesn't change much in that aspect because I think every player wants to play for Man United and it's a thing that will never change because the name of this club speaks for itself. 'But the main thing for us is to focus on what we have ahead of us and that is a massive final.' Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.

Amazon's Prime Video Has a New NASA Live Channel for Streaming Rocket Launches
Can't get enough of those rocket launches and glimpses of the cosmos? Well, if you've got Amazon's Prime Video loaded up on any of your devices, you can now get a whole lot more of that goodness on the new NASA Plus channel. NASA announced on Tuesday that it has launched a streaming channel featuring content from its NASA Plus service on Prime Video's FAST section, featuring a variety of original educational and documentary content, as well as the occasional rocket launch livestream. "FAST" stands for free ad-supported television, and if you've ever dabbled with Pluto TV, Tubi or Amazon's own defunct Freevee brand, then you're already familiar with the concept. While "ad-supported" might be in the name of the format, the content from NASA Plus, on Prime Video and it's other apps, is both free of charge and free of ads, since NASA is a US government agency funded by tax dollars. Dabbling with the new Prime Video channel myself on Wednesday, I was able to access without an Amazon Prime account and without seeing a single ad the entire time. If you're interested in checking it out, you can find it by going to the Live TV section on Prime Video and scrolling down until you find it. X / Screenshot by CNET "Streaming NASA Plus on multiple platforms allows the agency to more efficiently share its missions, from launching astronauts to the International Space Station, to going behind the scenes with the team that defends Earth against asteroids, to showcasing new, high-definition images of the cosmos," Wes Brown, acting associate administrator for the Office of Communications at NASA, said about the new channel in a statement Tuesday. For the time being, there are no live-streaming events scheduled to air on NASA Plus, but you can check for any other updates to the schedule on the service's official webpage -- and here's a list of all the planned major US space launches for 2025, which you should be able to watch live on the channel. NASA did not respond to an additional request for comment before this piece was published.
