Saturday delivered plenty of news as Manchester United's plans to axe several players were revealed.

Plus, Arsenal have a wonderkid to get excited about and incoming Liverpool boss Arne Slot has a major problem that he will need to fix. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Man Utd to axe three

It has been revealed that Man Utd are ready to let three big-name stars leave for nothing this summer.

Marcus Rashford is another player who could be on the way out.

Erik ten Hag has admitted that Man Utd will need a bit of a miracle to be title challengers next season and he's right.

Arsenal's new starlet

Chido Obi-Martin scored seven goals for Arsenal's U18s against Norwich on Saturday. Last year, he scored ten in a game against Liverpool. Remember the name.

The youngster could be Arsenal's long-term striker solution in the future. At present, the Gunners are busier worrying about winning the league and Arsene Wenger is aiding their endeavours.

Slot's problem

Liverpool again failed to win as they were held to a 2-2 draw by West Ham. New boss Arne Slot will need to fix the defence this summer and two potential options have now emerged via...social media.

Another potential defensive option could be moving to Anfield thanks to new Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner, who is planning to sign a familiar face as a replacement.

The Dutchman is also said to be 'wild' about Leeds United baller Crysencio Summerville, who has been on fire in the Championship.

One of Slot's very first signings could, however, actually be a Brazilian wonderkid.

Ruben Amorim was previously considered the favourite to replace Jurgen Klopp and the Portuguese has now been forced to apologise for holding transfer talks during the season.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. Serie A champions Inter Milan could lose several star players this summer.

Tottenham were busy in the market in 2023/24 but how have all of their signings actually fared?

Florian Wirtz's future is becoming increasingly clear but it's not good news for Real Madrid or Liverpool.

There has been a major twist in the Alphonso Davies to Real Madrid transfer saga.

Is Lionel Messi a good captain? One of his former teammates is not so sure.

Is Declan Rice the Premier League's Player of the Season? Former Arsenal star Emmanuel Petit certainly thinks so.

Jorge Mendes is reportedly trying to get Man City to replace Jack Grealish with one of his clients.

Lastly, Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he will need to talk to Chelsea's owners about having more of a say in transfers.
