Manchester United are facing a crucial moment as they plan for the upcoming summer transfer window. With Casemiro showing signs of decline, the Red Devils are actively scouting for a suitable replacement to shore up their midfield.
The 32-year-old Brazilian's form has dipped noticeably this season, prompting discussions within the club's hierarchy about parting ways with the experienced defensive midfielder.
Below are the players Man United should sign to replace Casemiro;
Guido Rodriguez
Despite being 30 years old, Rodriguez's experience and skill set make him an attractive prospect for Manchester United. His impending free agency status adds to his allure, with the Red Devils reportedly leading the race for his signature amid competition from other clubs like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.
Joao Gomes
The 25-year-old midfielder has showed his potential in matches, including a notable performance against Casemiro himself during Wolves' clash with United last year.
However, Wolves' reluctance to lose key players like Gomes and Pedro Neto may complicate negotiations unless a mouthwatering offer is made.
Ederson
The 24-year-old Brazilian midfielder's energetic style and versatility make him a valuable asset as he is capable of bolstering both defensive solidity and attacking prowess.
United's interest in Ederson was reinforced during Atalanta's recent fixture against Juventus, where his performance left a lasting impression on the watching scouts.
Amadou Onana
The Belgian international has emerged as a bright spot in Everton's challenging season, and United could leverage Everton's financial struggles to secure a deal for the talented midfielder.
Morten Hjulmand
The 24-year-old Danish midfielder has enjoyed a productive season in Portugal, showing his goal-scoring and playmaking abilities.
While negotiations stalled in January, Hjulmand's potential acquisition could still materialize as United seeks to reinforce their midfield options ahead of the new season.
