Midfield dynamo

Erik ten Hag believes Mason Mount can bring "dynamism" to Manchester United's midfield.

Mount, who signed for £55million from Chelsea last week, impressed in a 45-minute cameo against Leeds in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday.

And Ten Hag stated that the England international was specifically targeted to provide more energy from the middle of the pitch.

He told MUTV: "He will bring dynamism to our game and that was one of our conclusions last season.

"His vision is to play the offensive. But also he wants to be multi-functional, he wants to be complete.

"When you're playing in midfield, you have to attack, but you also have to defend. We need to be more dynamic in the midfield department.

"I'm sure he will contribute to the success of United because he is a quality player."

Liverpool have announced that striker Darwin Nunez will wear the No9 shirt for the 2023-24 season.

Nunez scored 15 goals and registered four assists for the Reds in his debut 2022-23 campaign and looks set to play a starring role this time around.

The 24-year-old said: "I'm really happy to wear No9. And I'm very proud too.

"Previously, other players represented this number really well and now it's my turn to wear it.

"I hope I'm able to represent it the best way just as the previous players did. Hopefully this is for many years and it brings a lot of joy."

The Uruguay hitman, who wore No27 last season, inherits the shirt from Roberto Firmino, who departed Anfield for Al-Ahli.

Liverpool greats Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler and Fernando Torres are all also previous incumbents.

Thomas Frank was happy with his side's efforts as they drew 1-1 in a friendly at Boreham Wood on Wednesday.

The Dane played different XIs in each half of the match and said: "It was good in many ways.

"It's always good to get the two 45 minutes in after we played two different teams in the two halves.

"The lads have been working very hard over the last 10 days or so and it was great to see that out here.

"Looking at the more experienced team in the first half, we saw a lot of things we've worked on, trying to add layers to the offensive play, especially trying to control it a bit more but also getting more in behind."
