Manchester United were in the market for a goalkeeper and have already added Karl Darlow to Michael Carrick’s squad this summer

Manchester United made an enquiry for goalkeeper Orlando Gill, according to the player’s agent, Mario Jara. Gill starred for Paraguay during the World Cup, racking up acclaim for the vast volume of saves he made for the South American side.

Senne Lammens cemented his place as United’s No.1 in his debut season at Old Trafford, while Andre Onana has already has already joined Trabzonspor on loan. Michael Carrick has added Karl Darlow on a free transfer from Leeds United to his array of shotstoppers, but could yet lose Altay Bayindir and Radek Vitek.

Following Darlow’s arrival, it appears unlikely Gill will make the move to the Theatre of Dreams. Jara has confirmed that he has held talks with clubs in England and Germany, in addition to fielding an enquiry from United, however.

Gill’s agent has suggested that the goalkeeper will soon leave for San Lorenzo. He told DSports Radio: “We are in talks with English clubs as well as clubs in Germany.

“There were enquiries with Manchester United. We only received two concrete offers. We are currently in the negotiation phase.

“The sale is close, the time is right. We have to handle it very carefully because there are many things involved. It’s ideal for him to take a step up in quality. He’s prepared and capable of playing in any league, without a doubt.”

He added, “We’re trying to finalise it as quickly as possible for everyone’s benefit. It would be very important for San Lorenzo; hopefully, it will come to fruition.”

United glovesman Lammens returned to Carrington on Thursday following his post-World Cup break. Vitek has featured in each of the club’s friendlies so far against Wrexham and Rosenborg.

After the clash against the Westlsh side, the former Bristol City loanee confirmed that he is ready to find a new club.

“I feel great and ready to go again somewhere to be, hopefully, number one, so we will see. We will see what is going to happen,” Vitek said.

“At the moment, I am still here, but we will see. I hope so. I hope there will be some interest. I think you will know when things are more concrete.

“I am ready for both, to be fair. [It] Depends what the club wants and also depends on the options. We will see.

“There have been a few interests on the table. But we hope to get the best one and hopefully it will happen soon.”

Just as he did in Birmingham four years ago, Ball had got, well, the ball rolling,

He competes in tandem races as an athlete with a visual impairment and is a multiple world champion across the tandem sprint events, also winning a gold at the 2024 Paralympics in the tandem B kilo alongside his pilot Steffan Lloyd.

In 2022, he was Team Wales’ first Commonwealth medallist and first gold medallist This time Ball delivered the first cycling podium position in the men’s B tandem 1,000m time trial.

Ball and Rotherham matched the silver they won in Birmingham with great rival Neil Fachie from Scotland taking the gold.

It was a third successive Commonwealth Games second place in this event for Ball.

“It is special to equal to what we did in Birmingham four years ago,” said Ball.

“We have to be proud of what we’ve done. We gave it everything on the track and I was on the floor for 20 minutes afterwards.”

Fachie effectively came out of retirement for this event and now has six Commonwealth Games golds and one silver to his name.

The rivalry between Fachie and Ball is long-standing with Rotherham having been the pilot for both men.

Fachie won gold in this event four years ago, while the results were reversed in the tandem sprint.

So Ball and Rotherham will have a chance to defend their sprint title on Saturday.

Rotherham, who hails from Bolton, said: “I spent three days learning the Welsh national anthem and I’m gutted I didn’t get to sing it today.

“Hopefully we will do on Saturday.”

The Webbed Fruit is a Secret Equipment introduced in the Release Update (0.0) of Anime Expeditions on July 17, 2026. It is a Unit-type Equipment designed exclusively for String Demon (Awakened), the evolved version of the String Demon unit. You can obtain it as a drop from the Mastery Act of the Rose Kingdom.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Webbed Fruit in Anime Expeditions.

An overview of the Webbed Fruit in Anime Expeditions

How to get

The Webbed Fruit is obtained by completing the Mastery mode of Rose Kingdom, the third Story stage in Anime Expeditions.

Rose Kingdom features five Acts, an Infinite Act, and a Mastery Act. The Webbed Fruit can only drop from the last Act. The Equipment has the following drop rates:

• 5% drop chance after completing the Rose Kingdom Mastery Stage.
• 20-Run Pity, guaranteeing the Equipment if you don’t obtain it within 20 Mastery clears.

Although you can farm the Equipment at any time, it can only be equipped after evolving String Demon into String Demon (Awakened).

Stats and passive

The Webbed Fruit comes with two rollable substats:

• Range: +1% to +10%
• SPA: -1% to -5%

These values are randomized when the Equipment drops. You can improve them later by using Equipment Rerolls if you’re looking for better stat rolls. Webbed Fruit grants the Cocoon of Carnage passive, which completely overrides String Demon (Awakened)’s original passive ability.

The passive works as follows:

• Every five regular attacks, the unit Cocoons all enemies hit.
• Cocooned enemies remain trapped until they are either:
• Hit 10 times, or
• Held for five seconds.

If the Cocoon is broken after receiving 10 hits, it explodes and deals 125% of String Demon (Awakened)’s current damage. If the Cocoon survives the full five seconds without being broken, it simply disappears without dealing the bonus damage.

Thanks to its increased range, faster attack speed, and reliable crowd-control effects, the Webbed Fruit is considered the best Equipment for String Demon (Awakened) and significantly improves the unit’s overall performance.

How to evolve String Demon into String Demon (Awakened)

To evolve String Demon into its Awakened form, you’ll need the following materials:

• 1x Joker of the Nonsensical Pirates (obtained from the Strings of Captivity Unit Trial)
• 20x Yellow Sprite
• 20x Pink Sprite
• 1x Rainbow Sprite
• 5,000 Gold

Once all the required materials have been collected, you can evolve the unit into String Demon (Awakened), allowing it to equip the Webbed Fruit.
