Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes said it is not the players' fault for the contracts signed off by the club as he hit back at claims by co-owner Jim Ratcliffe that some are "overpaid". Fernandes was singled out for praise by Ratcliffe, who also said some of the United squad were "not good enough" in a range of media interviews this week. The United captain led by example by scoring a hat-trick in Thursday's 4-1 win over Real Sociedad to book a place in the quarter-finals of the Europa League. And he defended his team-mates after Ratcliffe singled out the signings of Casemiro, Rasmus Hojlund and Andre Onana as examples of expensive deals made before he arrived at the club, which United are still paying for.
Ruben Dias has returned to the Cristiano Ronaldo-led Portuguese squad for their upcoming Nations League quarter-final against Denmark.

LONDON: Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold will miss the League Cup final against Newcastle with an ankle injury that leaves the defender facing an extended spell on the sidelines. Alexander-Arnold was injured in the second half of Liverpool’s Champions League last 16 penalty shoot-out defeat against Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield on Tuesday. The 26-year-old’s absence is a huge blow to Liverpool boss Arne Slot, who is without a recognized right-back for Sunday’s showdown with Newcastle at Wembley.
