      by

      Pulisic had been struggling at club level with Chelsea but appears back to his best with the United States in Qatar.
      He provided a stunning assist for Timothy Weah’s goal against Wales before being awarded the Man of the Match against England, when he rattled Jordan Pickford’s bar with a brilliant effort
      Despite the Blues being reportedly happy to let him go, it appears clubs will now have to plump for a permanent deal.
      The Mail reports that Graham Potter’s side are not interested in any loan deal, which is what United favoured.

      The 24-year-old would have represented a cheap and short-term attacking boost to United who will be eyeing a Champions League place once the domestic season resumes.
      He could have also served as a replacement to Cristiano Ronaldo after his dramatic and public falling-out with the club.
      Arsenal and Newcastle are both believed to also be interested in the attacker.
      When he first joined Chelsea, Pulisic was a breath of fresh air to Blues fans and produced a few stunning individual moments of quality.

      The winger, nicknamed ‘Captain America’ has started just three Premier League games this season and has only one goal in 18 appearances in all competitions.
      Pulisic, who signed for the club in 2019, is entering the final 18 months of his deal and there have been no noises around the club about a potential renewal. More

      Rumours regarding who might buy the Red Devils have been swirling since the announcement last week, with ex-England captain Beckham among the names earmarked.
      And Ferdinand appears to have confirmed that Becks will make an offer to buy the club where he spent the best part of a decade of his senior career.
      On his FIVE podcast, Ferdinand was asked about a potential takeover from the 47-year-old, to which he said: “Becks will come with a consortium.
      “I saw Becks last night at the game. I went to the England game and we were sat next to each other. He smelt beautiful, looked beautiful. He looked a million dollars, as he normally does.

      “He didn’t look 10 billon dollars’ worth (the amount Utd could cost). But when you mention someone like Becks’ name, he’s obviously a part-owner of Inter Miami, but he doesn’t come (alone).
      “It’s not his money. It’s not him in terms of putting his hand in his pocket.
      “He comes with a consortium. He comes with people who have the deep pockets who have the ability to go and execute on a deal like that.
      “So that’s the way he’ll be approaching it, and rightly so. I just think it’s going to come down to a number. If you’ve got the number, and you can produce, that’s what it’s going to be about.”

      With Beckham already a major name in MLS franchise Inter Miami, he could now set his sights on being involved with a new Man Utd ownership hierarchy.
      Britain’s richest man and Utd fan Sir Jim Ratcliffe has also been tipped to return with an offer after his interest was rebuked by the Glazers earlier this year.
      Tech giants Apple have been linked with an approach as well, with reports indicating they are prepared to offer a sum worth almost £6BILLION to acquire them.
      However, a deal to buy United could end up reaching an eye-watering £9bn.
      The announcement of a potential sale saw Utd’s value skyrocket by £336m. More

      Ehibhatiomhan first trained with Chelsea over the summer, scoring in pre-season matches against Leeds and Coventry.
      He then went to Southampton, where he hit the target against Crystal Palace and Fulham.
      And Ehibhatiomhan is now hoping he can find a home with United.
      He played for their U17s last week in the 2-1 Premier Cup win over Blackburn Rovers, but was unable to grab a goal.
      Ehibhatiomhan already has a strike for England’s U17s though, scoring in last year’s 2-0 win over Romania.
      And it now remains to be seen if United offer him a long-term deal before the January transfer market opens. More
