🚨🗣️ Zidane Iqbal: “I was supposed to start a cup game against Charlton. I was in all the shapes and patterns in pre-match training. I was starting as a 10 and Lisandro Martinez came up to me and said: ‘Now’s your chance’. He talked to me and said, ‘all of us are supporting you. Just show yourself, you’re a good player. We’re going to fight for you, make sure you’re ready to fight'.
“It motivated me and it was nice from him, an aggressive leader in the team, a big player. I got tickets for family and friends to see me. Finally, my chance.
“Then I got to the stadium, looked at the whiteboard and didn’t see my name. I was gutted. Then I thought I’d come off the bench. Nothing. That was the turning point for me. I didn’t feel the manager respected me enough to play me”.

🚨🗣️ Zidane Iqbal: “He [Erik ten Hag] told me to stay patient. So I did. I was sure I’d play some minutes and become the first Iraqi player in the Premier League. It didn’t happen, not even in the last games when there was little to play for. My best friend, Ali Al Hamadi of Ipswich, became the first Iraqi player, so I’m happy it’s him”.
NEW: Celtic have been told Manchester United would accept £3M for Tyrell Malacia.

As Manchester United look to reinforce key positions, one name that has quietly emerged as a candidate to strengthen the goalkeeper group is John Victor of Botafogo.
There’s plenty to like in John’s game: the range and accuracy in distribution, the composure in aerial duels, the strong underlying shot-stopping metrics.
John may not generate headlines, but in a league where every squad role matters, he could quietly become one of the more important signings of the summer.
