United 'close in' on free deal for ex-Lazio keeper Strakosha & 3 more latest under-radar stories

Williams missed pre-season through injury

Brandon Williams has revealed he's currently injured and that's why he could not travel with the rest of the Man United squad for pre-season.

Williams wrote on Instagram: "My injury, I told myself to deal with it and bounce back stronger. My goal is to play in-front of the best fans in the world."

Pellistri hints at another loan move

In an interview with Ovacion, Facundo Pellistri said: "Right now, I want to feel good again after the holidays because this year is very important both at club and national team level. You have to be ready for everything and prepare well. I want to have the maximum continuity of minutes to try to arrive well."

Pellistri, who spent last season on loan at Alaves, added: "I’m not looking for a particular league. It’s easy to say ‘earn minutes’ because nobody promises them to you, and you have to earn them. It’s a complicated search, but I’m going to try to find the best option to play, show myself and feel good."

United 'close in' on free deal for ex-Lazio keeper Strakosha

According to talkSPORT, Man United are close to signing former Lazio goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha as a free agent.

The 27-year-old has been linked with Chelsea, Fulham, Leicester and Nottingham Forest. However, it looks like he could become David de Gea's back-up.

Ten Hag wanted Matic to stay for another year

As per The Athletic, Erik ten Hag feels that there's a lack of leadership in the Man United squad - which is why he asked Nemanja Matic to stick around for another year.

The Serb had a one-year extension option in his deal with United but chose to leave and reunite with Jose Mourinho at AS Roma.
