Manchester United transfer news LIVE Man Utd vs Newcastle reaction plus Casemiro and Varane latest

Manchester United were knocked out of the Carabao Cup last night after losing 3-0 at home to Newcastle.

Erik ten Hag's side ended their defence of the trophy with a dismal defeat at Old Trafford thanks to goals from Miguel Almiron, Lewis Hall and Joe Willock. The Dutchman made seven changes from the side that lost on Sunday but there were no excuses, with Newcastle also much-changed and far better.

United fans were happy to see Aaron Wan-Bissaka named in the matchday squad for the first time since September, the right-back having suffered a hamstring injury in the 3-1 defeat against Brighton.

In transfer news, Jadon Sancho continues to be a hot subject and Borussia Dortmund are reportedly weighing up ways to take the winger back on loan.
