Man United are planning to make landscape changes to their squad this summer and the midfield is going to require its fair share of maintenance.
This summer is poised to mark one of the most important windows the club has faced in recent years. Following the arrival of the Ineos Group, a raft of changes are expected to take place in preparation for the 2024/25 campaign.
Each area of the squad is expected to come under the microscope, including the midfield department. It is highly likely there will be a hive of transfer activity within the engine room and MEN Sport has taken a close look at how many deals may need to be completed to rebuild that part of the squad. Scott McTominay is another sellable asset. He scored 10 goals in the most recent campaign and that will have driven his valuation north, meaning interest should not be in short supply. As valuable as his goals were, United need to get money in the coffers, and every penny raised from selling him would count as pure profit because of his status as an academy graduate.
Incomings: Starting with the defensive side of the midfield operation, Casemiro's anticipated exit would leave United without a recognised defensive-midfielder. Sofyan Amrabat, unless the club chooses to sign him permanently, will return to Fiorentina, leaving the Reds with a vacant hole to fill at the base of the engine room.
Nevertheless, having just two No.8s onboard risks leaving United short in case of injuries. They have been linked with a cluster of players who could strengthen that department, including AS Monaco's Youssouf Fofana, who could be available at a reduced price because of his contract status.
