Unlike the previous few transfer windows, Manchester United only interacted a little in this recently closed one. Still, the Old Trafford club inked an experienced Bayern Munich midfielder Marcel Sabitzer. The Austrian player comes on loan from the Bavarian giants, with Eric ten Hag hoping to strengthen the midfield even more with this reliable 28-year-old.Deadline Day stoppage time sees Enzo finally breaking the EPL record, as Chelsea directs Ziyech’s horror”Sometimes in life, you have to make quick and important decisions,” Sabitzer said.”From the moment I heard about this opportunity, I knew it was right for me. I am a competitive player; I want to win and help the club achieve its aims this season,” he added.Martial and Sancho back in the Man Utd squad against Nottingham Forest, while we’re getting a Casemiro, Sabitzer, and Bruno Fernandes midfield…Yeah, we’re back up!!! pic.twitter.com/Q86UhgvqJT— UF (@UtdFaithfuls) January 31, 2023 “I feel that I am at my peak as a player, and that I can contribute a lot of experience and energy to the squad.”I’m excited to start with my new team-mates and manager and to show my qualities to Manchester United fans.”Sabitzer, however, won’t be among the listed players for tonight’s clash against Nottingham Forest in the EFL Cup. The Red Devils trashed the Tricky Trees 3-0 in the first leg, and this one at Old Trafford should be nothing but a dead rubber. ##NAJAVA_MECA_6988540##Still, the visitors will line up a starting XI with at least two of their most recent signings, Gustavo Scarpa and Danilo. Moreover, in the last minutes of the Deadline Day, they brought famous PSG keeper Keylor Navas, along with Newcastle’s midfielder Jonjo Shelvey and Atletico Madrid’s defender Felipe. All in all, Forest spent a ludicrously high 160.000.000 euros in the previous transfer window (between the two seasons), and some more in this one, yet it probably won’t be enough to see themselves in the Wembley EFL Cup showdown with Newcastle United. Ten Hag’s boys are seizing this opportunity.EFL CUPSemi-finals – 2nd legTuesdayNewcastle – Southampton 2-1 (2-1)/Longstaff 5, 21 – Adams 29/Wednesday23:00: (1.45) Man.Utd.
