At a February 24 rally in Kakamega, Sifuna promoted his new Linda Mwananchi movement as a citizen-focused challenge to President Ruto, while signaling openness to a United Opposition coalition including Gachagua and Kalonzo Musyoka.

Rashford joined Barcelona on a season-long loan from United in July 2025, shining early with 10 goals and 10 assists, including five in the Champions League. But he's been benched lately amid competition from Lamine Yamal and Raphinha, even as Barca pushes for a permanent €30 million deal. Garnacho forced a £40 million move to Chelsea in August 2025, yet he's managed just one Premier League goal in 18 games, dropped for key matches like against Arsenal. United fans revel in the irony, with United sitting third in the league ahead of Chelsea.
