Michael Carrick sack odds SLASHED
Manchester United head coach Michael Carrick has seen his odds of becoming the first managerial casualty of the season slashed by betting sites, though he is not the front-runner.
Man United needed a late deflected Matheus Cunha strike to earn a point away at Fulham on Sunday, stretching their winless run to three games across all competitions.
The 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage leaves Man Utd 12th in the Premier League table having taken just five points from a possible 15, with their only wins this season coming against promoted Ipswich and Champions League debutants Sabah.
That point, however, lifted Fulham above Tottenham - who cannot move off the bottom of the table for at least three weeks because of the new international break.
This is all reflected in the latest odds with Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi the favourite among bookmakers, Betfair, to lose his job first, but Carrick is not too far away.
Tottenham weigh up £125m move for Gibbs-White
It's the summer of 2025 all over again!
According to Football Insider, Tottenham have set their sights on Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White.
The report states a possible £125 million January move could be on the cards.
Arsenal reveal stance on Dowman exit
Mikel Arteta is open to the possibility of Arsenal one day sending Max Dowman out on loan.
The 16-year-old continues to make an impact when given first-team opportunities, scoring a brace against Ipswich in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night.
Dowman made six Premier League appearances last season and also became the youngest player in Champions League history.
The teenager will be eligible to go on loan once he turns 17 at the end of December. There have already been suggestions that clubs have approached Arsenal to enquire about Dowman.
Borussia Dortmund forward Maximilian Beier emerging as a player of interest to Arsenal.
That is according to TEAMtalk who claim the Gunners have been assessing a number of attacking options as they continue to plan for the future.
The report adds that Arsenal’s scouts have been impressed with Beier over the past 12 months.
JJ Gabriel 'picks Chelsea' as Man Utd identify replacement
JJ Gabriel is said to have picked Chelsea as his preferred option if he stays in England, as Manchester United make progress on signing a replacement for the wantaway wonderkid.
Gabriel has formally asked United to cancel his academy registration in a shock development last week, but the club are continuing efforts to try to change the 15-year-old’s mind.
A move to Spain appears more than staying in the Premier League, despite, according to TEAMtalk every elite club having pitched their plans to Gabriel. Chelsea, it is claimed, are proving the most attractive English destination for Gabriel, with talks having reportedly taken place.
While United remain hopeful of keeping their academy star, they are also preparing for the possibility that he leaves.
The same outlet claims that Man Utd have identified Lens teenager Mezian Mesloub as a potential alternative. United’s scouting department have carried out extensive work on the 16-year-old, who has already made his senior debut for the French club.

Liverpool and Man City battle for £50m Jon Aramburu
Liverpool and Manchester City are both monitoring Real Sociedad defender Jon Aramburu as they assess options at right-back.
According to CaughtOffside, both clubs have carried out checks on the 24-year-old, with Liverpool receiving particularly positive reports on his defensive qualities and versatility. Aramburu can also operate at left-back.
The Venezuela international has impressed in La Liga with his one-on-one defending and ability to contribute going forward. Tottenham, Newcastle, Everton and Fulham have also reportedly watched the defender.
Aramburu is under contract with Real Sociedad until 2030, but his deal contains a release clause worth around £50million.
Tottenham reject Richarlison offer from Shabab Al Ahli
Tottenham have rejected a bid from Shabab Al Ahli for Richarlison after the UAE club made an approach to sign the Brazilian striker.
Shabab Al Ahli were keen to bring Richarlison to the UAE, with former Olympic coach Andre Jardine reportedly pushing for a reunion with the forward.
Richarlison is said to have considered the possibility of making the move, but the proposal did not meet Tottenham’s asking price.

Arsenal set to open talks over Endrick move
Arsenal have opened the door to a potential January move for Endrick, with talks between the Brazilian’s representatives and Real Madrid now expected to take place.
According to TEAMtalk, Endrick’s representatives are set to meet Madrid during the upcoming international break to discuss his development and prospects under Jose Mourinho. Arsenal remain in contact with the striker’s camp and are keen to explore a deal.
Endrick returned to Madrid after spending the second half of last season on loan at Lyon, but he has struggled to establish himself in Mourinho’s plans. Competition from Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, Arda Guler, Brahim Diaz and new arrivals has further complicated his route into the first team.
However, Endrick has not given up on his Real Madrid future, while the club remain reluctant to lose a player they consider a major talent. Arsenal are not the only Premier League side interested, with Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham, Aston Villa and Fulham also having explored his situation.
Race hots up for Madueke
Football Insider reports that Premier League clubs are keeping tabs on Noni Madueke, with the winger potentially available for a move away from Arsenal in January.
The 24-year-old has struggled for regular minutes amid increased competition from Max Dowman, and he has not started a single league game for the champions this term.
Liverpool eye Mitchell
Ekrem Konur claims that Liverpool are keeping tabs on Crystal Palace left-back Tyrick Mitchell as they consider options to strengthen that side of their defence.
The 27-year-old has emerged on Liverpool’s radar as a potential free transfer addition at Anfield, with Milos Kerkez struggling for form since his move from Bournemouth last year.
