The players from Manchester United took center stage on Thursday night as the team's journey to Qatar continued.

In the first half, Portugal's Diogo Dalot, Bruno Fernandes, and Cristiano Ronaldo all started as they moved closer to the 2022 World Cup finals.

This occurred during a pivotal play-off match at the Estádio do Drago in Porto. Portugal will face North Macedonia in a World Cup qualifying shootout after the European minnows defeated Euro 2020 champions Italy 3-1 in Palermo. Portugal advanced to the World Cup with a 3-1 victory over Italy in the qualifying round.

On Tuesday night, Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates will face off against North Macedonia. Following that, the United trio will return to Old Trafford to resume their quest towards the top four.

United have chosen Erik ten Hag as their favorite choice to take over as permanent manager from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer next season, with an eye on the upcoming campaign. When it comes to transfer speculation, Paul Pogba and Jesse Lingard are preparing to depart Manchester United on a free transfer as they enter the final months of their contracts.

Reports indicate that several clubs are interested in Kamara.
Boubacar Kamara is once again a target for Manchester United, according to reports in France. In order for them to get the Frenchman this summer, they will have to beat out Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Tottenham in the race for him. Southampton is also considering it.

Goal attributes an interest in a player who has a contract expiring this summer to those five clubs. Manchester Evening News says that when Manchester United start making deals, they're ready to focus on central midfielders first.

With his versatility, Kamara can play as a holding midfielder or defender. Ralf Rangnick, United's interim manager, knows him well from his time as a player in Ligue 1.

Manchester United have been connected with Boubacar Kamara.

OPINION: What Van de Beek is thinking as he prepares to open his summer window
For Manchester United, Donny van de Beek earned just four Premier League starts in his first season with the club. Prior to joining Manchester United, the midfielder had established himself as one of the world's most sought-after prospects. That campaign served as a significant letdown for the athlete.

Despite the fact that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had lavished praise on Van de Beek, the Norwegian coach did not put his trust in him to play. Solskjaer's actions were in direct opposition to his words. Talking about the player became tiresome, but Van de Beek had to deal with his newfound lack of purpose. Van van Beek was forced to relocate to Manchester as a result of a pandemic, which was obviously difficult.

During that time, Van de Beek had some solace in the fact that he was still valued by the Netherlands national team. Carrington seemed to be more interested in Van de Beek when he was reporting for national duty than when he was arriving for training. In the winter, he looked forward to the European Championship, and that provided him with some consolation.
