Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Manchester United secured the Premier League Summer Series crown in the United States, offering fans a glimpse of promise ahead of the new season.<\/b><\/p>\n

After wins over West Ham (2-1) and Bournemouth (4-1), the Red Devils sealed the title with a 2-2 draw against Everton on Sunday. Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty to open the scoring, while Mason Mount netted a superb curler to restore United\u2019s lead after Iliman Ndiaye\u2019s equalizer. A late own goal by Ayden Heaven brought the Toffees level, but it wasn\u2019t enough to stop United from topping the mini-league.<\/p>\n

The tournament marks a bright debut for summer arrivals Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, both handed starting roles by Erik ten Hag. While the games were friendlies, United\u2019s sharp attacking displays and squad depth gave supporters renewed hope after a disappointing domestic campaign.<\/p>\n

With the Premier League kickoff fast approaching, the Summer Series title may offer momentum and confidence in what is expected to be a defining season for the club.<\/p>\n
