Welcome back to a tough episode of Devils in the Box following a period of illness to our host! After the sheer trauma of that 10-man Newcastle defeat, I think we all need a little bit of escapism. So today, we are doing what Manchester United fans do best: blindly ignoring the present and obsessing over the future!

In this episode, Joe dives into the massive summer transfer rumours swirling around INEOS's war chest, including an €80m pursuit of Yan Diomande and a cheeky £??m swoop for Barca's Balde. Then, we talk about the kid who might save us millions: 15-year-old academy sensation JJ Gabriel. He’s already training with the first team, and the quotes from his teammates and coaches are absolutely mind-blowing. Finally, we break down the pressing need for a marquee centre-back and why Forest's Murillo is becoming a mainstay on the hitlist.

👇 Drop your thoughts in the comments! Is 15 too young, or should JJ Gabriel get some first-team minutes next season? And who is your dream CB signing?

🔴 About Devils in the Box: Hosted by Joe—a former amateur journalist whose impact on the world of Man Utd reporting was roughly as significant as Antony's right foot. After a brief stint churning out soul-crushing clickbait for some online sites, Joe is taking to the mic to bring you honest, banter-heavy, and fiercely optimistic takes on all things Manchester United. Audio-only for now, but fully-fledged video content is coming soon!
