Man Utd star stripped of iconic shirt number as transfer exit looms

Manchester United have decided to strip Marcus Rashford of the No.10 shirt and will give it to new summer signing Matheus Cunha.

Cunha arrived as United’s first signing of the summer transfer window following a £62.5million move from Wolves.

Ruben Amorim will have high hopes for the Brazilian as he looks to revive United’s attacking fortunes following a disappointing season last campaign.

Cunha will report to pre-season in the coming days, and the 26-year-old has been given an early present after United decided to give him the No.10 shirt for the new season.

The shirt was most recently worn by Rashford, but the Englishman has been stripped of the iconic jersey as he looks for a summer exit.

Rashford has not played for United since December after a falling out with Amorim saw him loaned out to Aston Villa in January.

Villa had the option to sign Rashford for £40 million, but the forward has long made it clear that he is holding out for a Champions League club.

A move to Barcelona appears to be Rashford’s preference, with the forward even publicly admitting that he would relish a move to the Nou Camp to link up with teenage sensation Lamine Yamal.

And Rashford’s hopes of securing a move to Barca could well have improved after the Catalan giants missed out on the chance to sign Nico Williams.

The Athletic Club winger had reportedly agreed verbal terms on a move, but has now instead signed a new contract with his boyhood club, which includes an increased release clause.

Barcelona are reportedly set to turn their focus to signing Liverpool’s Luis Diaz, but are also keen on signing Rashford as well on a loan deal.

Rashford is not expected to report back to pre-season along with the rest of the squad to give him time to try and secure a move away from Old Trafford.

Antony, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho and Tyrell Malacia have also reportedly been granted an extended break to try and finalise moves away after telling United they would like to leave this summer.

‘Oasis split the day I tried to see them – I’ll take my chance on reunion tour’

It was 16 years ago that Oasis dramatically split up – the biggest British band of their era shocked fans everywhere when they called it quits.

Gallagher brothers Liam and Noel were due on stage at V Festival 2009 in Chelmsford when fans discovered that the band had unexpectedly pulled out as a result of Liam coming down with laryngitis.

Oasis was dead just a few days later.

In the crowd at Chelmsford was 31-year-old Oasis enthusiast Tom, who was one of millions delighted when Liam and Noel patched things up in 2024 and announced a reunion tour.

A string of live dates was announced for the summer of 2025, with the first of those coming on Friday, July 4—a 75,000-capacity sold-out show at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.

Metro spoke to Borehamwood native Tom to see whether he forgives the Manchester Britpop band after all these years or if he still looks back in anger on the day they broke his heart.

Oasis fans are set to collectively spend more than ?1 billion attending the band's highly-anticipated reunion concerts in the UK, according to estimates from Barclays. Across 17 UK concerts, fans attending the Oasis Live '25 Tour are predicted to fork out a total of ?1.06 billion to see the Gallagher brothers reunite on stage. Issue date: Wednesday May 21, 2025.

On the afternoon of Sunday, August 23, 2009, V Festival was proceeding just like the 13 successful previous years… but soon, disaster struck.

Tom explained: ‘I was incredibly excited. V Festival was my first ever festival. I went with my sister and my parents and had two of my favourite bands headlining—The Killers, then Oasis.’

Still on a high from seeing the Mr. Brightside hitmakers the night before, Tom began Sunday eager for Oasis to cap the weekend off—only for the bad news to make its way to him just 10 minutes into the afternoon.

‘It was devastating. Whispers went around. We even saw a guy draw an “N” before the Oasis logo on his shirt, so it read NOASIS. Then the official message came through—Snow Patrol were now headliners instead.

‘Everyone rushed to see Lady Gaga instead. It got so busy they had to close it off, so we didn’t see her either—we were stuck with Snow Patrol.’

Now, 16 years on, Tom’s been lucky enough to land tickets not just for the Wembley Oasis show but for their homecoming show at Heaton Park as well, just 10 miles from their birthplace of Burnage.

He can scarcely believe it.

‘I always hoped [a reunion] would happen one day. But even now it still feels like a dream. In seven days, I’ll be standing in a field with my mum, my sister, and my fiancée, crying my eyes out to Champagne Supernova.’

Somebody who was lucky enough to catch the Importance of Being Idle chart-toppers was 31-year-old Craig, who saw one of their last-ever shows before the split.

Driving down from his hometown of Perth, Scotland, Craig caught Oasis at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield, paying just £44 to see them alongside Reverend and the Makers, Kasabian, and The Enemy. Those were the days.

‘Seeing them in 2009 was absolutely incredible; the tickets were actually my 15th birthday present from my dad—they were an incredible surprise, and it really was an incredible gig. As a young 15-year-old kid, it was absolutely life-changing.’

But did he know that Oasis was just 15 more gigs away from the very end?

‘I didn’t know it was nearly the end, [but] I remember Liam making a comment on-stage to the sound guys—he wasn’t best pleased. There had been power issues at the Manchester show [the week before].

‘Looking back with the benefit of hindsight, it felt like they were done. The chemistry between Liam and Noel was off. It makes even more sense when you hear about them travelling separately.’

Craig was hurt when Oasis called it quits just weeks after the Edinburgh show, but seeing offshoot bands like Liam’s Beady Eye and Noel’s High-Flying Birds live put a band-aid over the wound.

In the 16 intervening years, Craig ‘didn’t think they’d ever play live together again, at least not in the UK’—but now he gets to pass Oasis on to the next generation in his family.

‘My cousin, who’s five years younger than me, when I was a teenager, I kept saying to him that Oasis are the greatest band ever. We’ve seen Liam and Noel solo, and it’ll come full circle when we see Oasis next month.’

Before Craig catches the Gallaghers at Murrayfield, Tom will get to live out his dream of finally seeing Oasis in the flesh, barring any last-minute fallouts or laryngitis issues. What will it mean to finally see them?

”[The comeback shows] mean everything. I was born in 1994, so my mum and me waited 15 years to see them together. That 15-year wait has now become a 31-year wait.

‘I still won’t believe it until I see them walk on stage together at Heaton Park.’

Why Chelsea have been fined £78.5m by UEFA for breaching financial rules

Chelsea, Aston Villa and Barcelona are among the clubs that have been heavily fined by UEFA, with the Blues to pay up to £78.5million.

Enzo Maresca’s side are currently at the Club World Cup where they will take on Palmeiras in the quarter-finals in the early hours of Saturday morning.

While Chelsea will pocket a hefty payday for their participation at the FIFA tournament they have been hit with a financial blow by European’s Governing Body.

It was announced on Friday that the Premier League giants had been slapped with a huge fine and could face restrictions on registering new players for the Champions League next season.

How much have Chelsea been fined by UEFA?

As part of their settlement agreement, Chelsea will pay a fine of €31m (£26.7m), with up to €60m (£51.8m) in conditional fees.

Meanwhile Aston Villa have been ordered to pay €11m (£9.5m), in addition to a €15m (£12.9m) conditional fine.

Barcelona, Lyon, Besiktas, Panathinaikos and Hajduk Split have also been punished but none so more than Chelsea.

Why have Chelsea been fined by UEFA?

UEFA’s Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) have found Chelsea guilty of breaching two major regulations.

Firstly, they have breached the ‘football earnings rule’ in relation to when the club’s owners effectively sold two hotels they owned back to themselves to raise £76.5m in revenue.

They also sold their women’s team back to themselves to help balance the books. While this loophole was allowed by the Premier League, UEFA have taken exception to it.

Secondly, they broke the ‘squad cost rule’ which says a club can only spend a maximum of 70 per cent of their revenue on transfers – Chelsea spent between 80-90 per cent in the last financial year.

As part of their settlement agreement, UEFA have set certain financial targets for the Blues over the next four years. If these are not met, the conditional fines will become active.

Additionally, both Chelsea and Villa will only be allowed to register new players in their Champions League and Europa League squads for next season if the player’s cost is not greater than that of the player they replace.

Chelsea's statement on UEFA fine

‘Chelsea FC has entered into a settlement agreement with UEFA concerning a break even deficit reported by the Club under UEFA’s Financial Sustainability Regulations covering the financial years 2022/2023 and 2023/2024.

‘The Club has also agreed to pay a fine as a result of the Club’s squad cost ratio in the 2024 reporting year being between 80% and 90%.

‘The Club has worked closely and transparently with UEFA to provide a full and detailed breakdown of its financial reporting, which indicates that the financial performance of the Club is on a strong upwards trajectory.

‘Chelsea FC greatly values its relationship with UEFA and considered it important to bring this matter to a swift conclusion by entering into a settlement agreement.’
