Talk of the Devils: The Athletic FC's Manchester United show

• Watkins interest assessed and where's Mbeumo?

  Exciting times at TotD Towers as we launch on not one but three social media platforms. Some listeners have been asking to see us on Youtube for a while, well now you can... and we're on Instagram and TikTok to boot.https://www.youtube.com/@TOTDevilshttps://www.instagram.com/totdevilshttps://www.tiktok.com/@totdevilsOn today's show, the Bryan Mbeumo transfer negotiation is in danger of becoming a saga, but what's true and what's bluster? Plus, what is the nature of Manchester United's interest in Ollie Watkins?With pre-season starting next week, we also get into the details of Darren Fletcher's new job and why he might be choosing to take it now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

• Mbeumo latest & Martinez links examined

  The longest day has come and gone but we are now deep into silly season, the transfer-rumour-ridden hinterland that chases the end of the previous season out of town.Manchester United may or may not have made an improved bid for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, and may or may not have had a discussion with the representatives of Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez. After Mbeumo, the plan is to sell before buying, but it has been an 'interesting' few days for the players expected to leave the club.We also dig into the mailbag where there was a powerful response to the ticket price hikes and categorisation of league matches and take on the tricky task of mapping out the women's team's route through European qualifying.

• Fixtures, striker search, and ticket price reaction

  It's a midsummer special on the week of the longest day of the year (if only there was a proper name for it...)It's also pretty much square in the middle of Manchester United's summer break, with a month gone since last season and a month until the first pre-season fixture. The Premier League fixtures were announced this morning and we react to a tough start!Andy has been speaking to Omar Berrada, at great length, about his plans for the club and we consider his performance, both in the interview and in the job.Finally, sort of, there's a glimpse into Carl's breakdown of Ruben Amorim's ideal striker and whether he can buy one who matches up in reality. The "sort of" is because we have an extra bit with Ian and Andy reacting to the news that ticket prices for individual fixtures will go up next season. Hosted on Acast.

• From Amad to Zirkzee: end of season awards and review

  We made it to the end... a season that will be remembered for many years to come, for all the wrong reasons, is finally over.But who actually deserves some credit for sticking to their task, inspiring their teammates, and just generally defying the general trend of underperformance?We choose our player of the season (who isn't Bruno), the goal that moved us, the standout moment, the podcast highlight, and mint a special award for a very special man. All with the help of your suggestions.Hasta luego! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

• Bruno staying, Mbeumo keen, but what about Sancho?

  In your podcatchers a day earlier than planned, it's a transfer junkie special (especially for Andy) with news that Bruno has decided to stay at Old Trafford top of the shop.Meanwhile, the Matheus Cunha deal is done and another right-sided forward impressing in the Premier League, Bryan Mbeumo, also wants to join the club (that's according to our colleague David Ornstein).The price tags on those two forwards presumably requires some transfer income. We have a think about all the candidates but especially Jadon Sancho after Chelsea decided to take a £5m hit rather than progress his loan deal to a permanent transfer.Send us your nominations for "Player of the season who isn't Bruno", "Goal that got you", "Standout moment", and "Podcast highlight of the season".
