Winger Moro, for his part, spent this past season continuing to build on his sparkling reputation.
Despite Real Valladolid's collective struggles – the Pucelanos were relegated back to Spain's 2nd tier – their young attacker continued to shine bright.
All told, in 34 appearances between La Liga and the Copa del Rey, Moro racked up a solid haul of five goals and six assists.
Such production has given rise to transfer links with a whole host of clubs from across the continent.
And as alluded to above, late this week, one such suitor appear to have landed their man.
As per a report from journalist Sacha Tavolieri:

The Czech keeper joined the Red Devils in 2018 and stayed five years at Old Trafford.

Kovar impressed last year as he was involved in 17 games in total and played an active role in his side's run to the Europa League final. The 25 year old also played 15 matches this season as back-up keeper. PSV Eindhoven interest It was reported at the start of the month that Kovar was on the verge of leaving Bayer Leverkusen. His exit once again coincides with the arrival of Erik ten Hag, the manager in charge of United when he departed in 2023. German reporter Florian Plettenberg has posted on X that the Czech has almost sealed his exit from Leverkusen. Advertisement He reported, 'all done between Leverkusen, Eindhoven and Matej Kovar.

Germany hold crisis meeting to regroup for Euros quarter-final
(L-R) Germany's Sophia Kleinherne, Rebecca Knaak, Sarai Linder, Cora Zicai, Kathrin Hendrich and Sjoeke Nuesken take part in a training session, ahead of Saturday's UEFA Women's Euro 2025 group C soccer match against Sweden. Sebastian Christoph Gollnow/dpa Record champions Germany held a crisis meeting on Sunday as they need to regroup from their biggest defeat in Euros history and turn their attention to the quarter-finals. Germany were crushed 4-1 by Sweden and had Carlotta Wamser sent off in a defensive meltdown on Saturday. Advertisement Improvement will be needed if the eight-time champions want to advance on Saturday where strong France could be their quarter-final opponents. "We already sat down this morning as a team," midfielder Sjoeke Nüsken said, adding that "there will definitely be changes" in the line-up. Playmaker Laura Freigang vowed: "We have seven days to prepare and we will make use of them. "Of course it brings you back down to earth. It's the kind of day you'd prefer not to have during a European championship. But I'd rather have it today than any other day because now we have knock-out games," she added. Advertisement Coach Christian Wück gave the players the rest of Sunday and Monday off before having to act as crisis manager in his first big tournament with the team. But he said defiantly: "We are down but we will get up again. We will shake it off and then go into this quarter-final with joy and courage. No matter against whom - whether it's France or England or the Netherlands. Wück's main task will be to regain defensive stability as the back line collapsed even before Wamser's red card because Sweden had already reversed an early German lead from Jule Brand through Stina Blackstenius and Smilla Holmberg. Wamser's handball for which she saw red resulted in Fridolina Rolfö`s penalty for 3-1 in the 34th, and Sweden got as fourth from Lisa Hurtig with 10 minutes left. Advertisement Wück will have to make changes at the back but doesn't have a lot of options. The suspended right back Wamser was already playing in place of captain Giulia Gwinn, who suffered a tournament-ending knee injury in their opening 2-1 win over Poland. The coach rules out a major system change after the high pressing approach backfired badly against the Swedes. "We must not make the mistake of blaming or pillorying parts of the team now. I think it would be wrong to say that we only want to react now and only want to destroy," he said. Captain Janina Minge also warned against rigorous defensive tactics, insisting: "I don't think we should change our entire system now." Advertisement Saturday's defeat means that Germany now face a much more difficult path in their bid to reach the July 27 final than if they had won on Saturday to finish top of their group. France, who have impressed in Switzerland and beat Germany in last year's Nations League semi-finals are the likely opponent. A potential semi-final could be against world champions Spain who have been the best team so far at the Euros. Sweden, by contrast, will probably face title holders England or the Netherlands in the quarter-finals, and if they advance the winner of Norway v Italy. "There won't be any weaker teams," Brand warned.
