Manchester United’s Rebuild Underway Following 15th Place Finish
After finishing 15th in the Premier League last term, Manchester United’s head coach, Ruben Amorim, faces significant tasks ahead to enhance the team’s performance.
The club’s summer revamp is in full swing, highlighted by the recent addition of Brazilian international Matheus Cunha. This is expected to be just the start as Amorim aims to refine his roster.
United has confirmed that players Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans, and Christian Eriksen will depart as their contracts expire, while goalkeeper Tom Heaton is likely to extend his stay. However, there may be additional exits.
To further bolster his squad amidst the lack of European income, Amorim may need to facilitate more player sales. For instance, young talent Alejandro Garnacho could attract a significant transfer fee.
Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Antony might become surplus to requirements following a disappointing season. Clubs like Real Betis are keen on Antony, while Chelsea is eyeing Sancho differently.
Newcastle’s Interest in Rashford
Newcastle United may provide Marcus Rashford with an opportunity to leave Old Trafford, potentially offering him a chance to participate in the Champions League, although negotiations are ongoing.
Reports indicate that Newcastle prefers a season-long loan for Rashford, while Man United is inclined towards a permanent transfer. Rashford’s contact lasts until 2028, and he is one of the highest-paid players in the league.
