The winter transfer market is set to open, and now is the moment for Manchester United to be ready, at least in terms of purchasing and selling.
Man United is in the middle of a competition for the top four spots in the Premier League, and they need to pick up the pace in the last stages of the season if they want to finish the season with a ticket to the Champions League for next season. Man United realizes that their task this season is considerably more tough than last season in a backdrop with too many variables, such as Aston Villa.
Manchester United’s board of directors is prepared to accept bids on selling players in January 2024. Raphael Varane, Casemiro, Anthony Martial, Jadon Sancho, and Donny van de Beek, according to the Manchester Evening News, are all willing to leave if the price is right.
Man United is not in a financial bind, therefore if they sell players, it is not always for reasons of income and spending balance. Furthermore, this group of five players is in the category of being put on the table if there is a good offer. Otherwise, they are still regarded typical factors and are offered opportunities if in good condition.
Man United and other teams, such as Chelsea, are sweating after Everton was punished ten points. Man Utd needs to ponder further because, aside from Van de Beek, the remaining four players all receive very large salaries, and Sancho still has a very lengthy contract, he can become a time in the long term. Financial.
Varane is 30 years old this year, which is not ancient for a center-back, but he is frequently injured. Varane’s peak at Real Madrid has passed, and he is nearing the bottom of the slope at Old Trafford. The French midfielder has only started one of the last thirteen “Red Devils” games.
Erik ten Hag stated earlier this month that Van de Beek is free to find a new home. Meanwhile, following the “scapegoat” debacle in September, the Dutch strategist’s official information concerning Jadon Sancho has yet to be disclosed. Several major news outlets, including Sky Sports, reported that the striker The Englishman, after over three months of battling Ten Hag, now wants to choose communication over confrontation, regaining his place in the Manchester United squad.
However, whether Sancho wants it or not, Man United no longer appears to require the former Dortmund star’s presence. If Sancho receives some reasonable proposals in January, Man United will instantly discharge this debt.
Casemiro has returned to training and is expected to feature in the last Champions League group stage encounter against Bayern Munich. The Brazilian great, now 31 years old and suffering from more frequent ailments, cannot be termed the team’s mainstay because his participation is constantly interrupted. It is quite tough for Casemiro to have a large team in Europe interested in purchasing him. Perhaps after he departs Old Trafford, he will come home to finish his career.
Martial is 28 years old this year, and he has only scored 18 goals since the start of the 2020-2021 season. The French striker’s current deal with Manchester United expires in the summer of 2024, after which he will be free to negotiate with any team.
If the former AS Monaco player finds a new club in January, the transfer money will be regarded a gift to reward M.U for his training. Losing Martial for nothing, while not particularly regrettable at the moment, nonetheless has an impact on Manchester United.
