🗣️ Finnish entrepreneur Thomas Zilliacus: "I have decided to offer Manchester United a sponsorship deal through my company XXI Century Capital Group. I want to be able to give a Christmas present to Manchester United. So, I have decided to propose a $500M (£375M) sponsorship deal over five years. It goes back to global fan engagement and how we get the fans involved around the world. I have a programme that in a very interesting way activates these fans and it's around that that I am confident I can offer this sponsorship deal over five years. With that money, Manchester United could significantly strengthen their squad and do other things as well. Within the XXI Century Capital Group, we have a number of brands. It wouldn't necessarily be the XXI Century Capital brand that sponsors. It could be some other brands within the group. It could be Champion Circle, which is the specific fan engagement programme."

🗣️ Ruben Amorim also says that he can usually tell whether a player is right for his team, adding: "I think I have a good feeling on that. That's why we will not bring in a player that has that feeling face-to-face. They can mislead me a little bit, but it's going to be hard, so I have the feeling and most of the time, I get it right.  I just look at the guy, maybe it's the way they speak and I think I can detect the rubbish. I don't know."

🗣️ Ruben Amorim on potentially bringing in players in the January transfer window: "We have space to have more players, but it is a very important thing in our club that we have a plan and we need to bring players that we know.  It's hard to know for sure that everything is going to work, but we need to be certain of the players that we bring [in].  "If we are not sure, it's better not to bring anyone and to work with the players that we have. That is clear for me. Maybe I should be different like so many managers, but that is my thinking and I think it's the thinking of the board that we cannot do the same mistakes that we did in the past and we need to survive these moments because we have players coming from international [teams] and from Europe."

Ruben Amorim press conference summary V Newcastle: - Bruno Fernandes & Kobbie Mainoo are OUT. - Mainoo will recover quicker than Bruno. - Ruben Amorim says that players like Jack Fletcher can step up in the absence of Bruno Fernandes. - Maguire & De Ligt are still out but are working towards recovery, could be back for the game after Newcastle.

Jadon Sancho on Ig:

🚨 Manchester United made a strong pitch to Antoine Semenyo but remained disciplined in their approach. Competitive offer made, but club aware there was heavy competition. There were no plans to utilise Semenyo as a predominant wingback despite suggestions Ruben Amorim would build a new system around him. Manchester United viewed Semenyo as a winger/attacker - Amorim's system was not a factor in Semenyo's decision-making process. All clubs who made a salary offer did so in a similar financial ballpark, but United not prepared to break their wage structure to go higher than rivals. [JacobsBen]

🚨 BREAKING: Manchester City are progressing to complete deal for Antoine Semenyo in next days. As revealed, City have been pushing in last 12h to accelerate in talks. Semenyo indicated #MCFC as favorite destination despite Man United trying hard + Chelsea/Spurs out of race. [Fabrizio Romano ]

🚨 Antoine Semenyo's preference to join Manchester City is not related to Rúben Amorim's system. Manchester United were not planning to use him at wing-back. [David Ornstein]

🚨 BREAKING: The first instalment in Antoine Semenyo's release clause is close to only £20M, which will be paid this financial year, with total amount being around £60M with £5M in add-ons. United and City pushing from player's side. Chelsea enquired. [Sully Talkz]
