"Overall on the balance of play we didn't do enough in the first 60 minutes or so. We started the game not great," Maguire said.

Iwobi swept a shot past Andre Onana into the bottom corner of the net in the 97th minute following a counter-attack to leave the home fans shell-shocked.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is expecting a tougher challenge from Manchester United in the coming years after British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe's purchase of a minority stake in the club was completed this week.

Manchester United were dealt another injury blow on Friday as in-form striker Rasmus Hojlund was ruled out for up to three weeks with a muscle injury.

British billionaire and Manchester United co-owner Jim Ratcliffe wants to build a new stadium for the club as he aims to bring back its glory days in the Premier League and European competitions, he told the BBC on Wednesday.

Haaland has almost monopolised the record books since arriving in England in July 2022, but the 21-year-old Hojlund has now scored in six successive Premier League games, the youngest player ever to do so. Incredibly it took him until after Christmas to register his first Premier League goal.

United spent just over 1.42 billion euros on the squad which played that season, surpassing the previous mark of 1.33 billion euros spent by Real Madrid's in 2020.

Scott McTominay kept alive Manchester United's hopes of finishing in the Premier League's top four as the midfielder's late goal clinched a vital 2-1 win against Aston Villa on Sunday.

English winger Jadon Sancho said he was "welcomed like family" after returning to Borussia Dortmund from Manchester United.

Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez will be sidelined for eight weeks with a knee injury sustained in Sunday's 3-0 home win over West Ham United, the club said on Monday.

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford scored the opening goal and Kobbie Mainoo netted a superb late winner as they beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-3 in a thrilling Premier League game at Molineux on Thursday.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag insisted Wednesday he had dealt with Marcus Rashford's absence from the FA Cup tie against Newport and it was now a matter of "case closed".

Ten Hag, whose side are languishing in eighth place in the Premier League and have been eliminated from the Champions League, explained Rashford's absence from the team by saying he had "reported ill".

Manchester United are set to raid rivals Manchester City to appoint Omar Berrada as the club's new CEO.

Rasmus Hojlund and Marcus Rashford are beginning to display signs of a potent partnership, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag said after the attackers both scored in Sunday's 2-2 Premier League draw with Tottenham Hotspur.

Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke shot down suggestions the returned Jadon Sancho was difficult to manage, saying the England winger "has no problems with discipline".

Jadon Sancho rejoined Borussia Dortmund on loan for the rest of the season on Thursday, less than three years since Manchester United paid £73 million ($93 million, 85 million euros) for the England winger.

Diogo Dalot's first-half strike and a controversial penalty from Bruno Fernandes secured United's first away win since November.

Erik ten Hag said he held "very positive" talks with Jim Ratcliffe when the under-fire Manchester United boss met the club's new minority stakeholder this week.

Hojlund had gone 14 games without a league goal since his August move from Atalanta for £72 million ($91 million).
