Watkins Wants to Be the New Anfield Wizard…

Move over David Beckham, Man United is here to poach a striker so spicy they might as well be casting spells like Hogwarts dropouts! Bryan Mbeumo, their newest footy wizard-in-training, thinks Ollie Watkins is the next big thing since sliced Salah. Mbeumo and Watkins were once the dynamic duo at Brentford, racking up 40 goals together faster than you can say “Ole Gunnar’s great-grandfather’s ghost!” Now, United’s dreams of reunification shimmer brighter than a magpie’s stolen trinket.

In an epic quest that could rival the Lord of the Rings, United wants to snatch Watkins from the clutches of Aston Villa with a coin pouch jingling between £40m and £45m—and not a penny more, Sir Knight from Villa! This epic feud harkens back to the days when Villa shouted from the battlements, “Watkins is not for sale!” Yet, United remains determined, convinced that Watkins will be patrolling their pitch rather than Villa’s garden gnome fest any day now.

Meanwhile, United’s got a secret shopping list of strikers longer than a referee’s whistle during extra time! With Marcus Rashford on a Spanish siesta and Rasmus Hojlund playing a game of “Will I Stay or Will I Go?”, United’s strategy is to unleash Watkins ‘like Salah but shinier’ and hope their fans don’t spot him workshopping his magic tricks against Fulham in his spare time!
