😈 My Suggestions for Manchester United’s Squad Next Season.

Players to ➡️Sell/Offload:

1. Harry Maguire
- Value: €18M.
- Sell to lower-tier clubs like Leicester or Sunderland for €8-10M.
- Contract expires: June 2025.
- Why sell? Despite his leadership
qualities, his lack of pace and high wages make him a liability in a high-pressing system.

2. Victor Lindelöf
- Value: €15M.
- Likely destination: Turkey (e.g., Fenerbahçe or Galatasaray).
- Expected fee: €6-8M.
- Why sell? Solid but unspectacular. United
need more dominant, physical defenders.

3. Luke Shaw
- Value: €28M.
- Injury-prone; sell for €15-22M.
- Contract until 2027.
- Why sell? His recurring injuries disrupt consistency. Time to cash in while he still has value.

4. Tyrell Malacia
- Valu
e: €18M.
- Keep as backup or sell for €10-13M to a lower-tier Premier League club.
- Contract until 2026.
- Why keep/sell? He’s decent depth but not a long-term solution.

5. Casemiro
- Value: €15M.
- Sell to Saudi Arabian clubs for €10M.
- Why
sell? His legs are gone, and his wager are astronomical. A move to Saudi Arabia benefits both parties.

6. Marcus Rashford
- Value: €60M.
- Sell now for €45M to clubs in Spain (e.g., Barcelona) or Italy (e.g., AC Milan).
- Why sell? Inconsistent performances аn
y of Outgoing Players:
- CB: 2
- LB: 2
- CDM: 1
- LW: 1
- RW: 1

Total raised: ~€125M.

Desired Signings:

1. Vitinha (PSG)

- Value: €55M.
- Why sign? A technically gifted midfielder with excellent ball control and vision.
- Potential deal: Swap w Image
ith Rashford + €20-30M.
- Price range: €55-90M.
- Fit: Would thrive alongside Bruno Fernandes and Dalot, forming a creative Portuguese core under Amorim.

2. Nico Williams (Athletic Bilbao)
- Value: €70M.
- Why sign? A dynamic, explosive winger with progr
essive dribbling and work rate.
- Fit: Perfect for Amorim’s high-intensity system, offering width and creativity.
- Bonus: His release clause is manageable for a player of his potential.

3. Gonçalo Inácio (Sporting CP)
- Value: €45M.
- Why sign? A left-foo
ted, ball-playing CB who’s comfortable in a high line.
- Expected fee: €60M.
- Fit: Already familiar with Amorim’s tactics, he’d slot in seamlessly.
- Bonus: Less injury-prone than United’s current options.

4. Álvaro Carreras (Benfica)
- Bring back for €1
6M.
- Why sign? A young, attacking LB who knows the club.
- Fit: Provides depth and competition for the left-back spot.
- Bonus: Low-risk, high-reward signing.

Total Spending: €266M.

Financial Reality:
- FFP Challenges: Selling players like Rashford and An
tony is crucial to balance the books.
- Deadwood Legacy: Previous management left the squad bloated with overpaid, underperforming players.
- Short-Term Pain, Long-Term Gain: United must spend big now to rebuild and compete for titles.

Tactical Vision:
- Amorim’s System:
High pressing, fluid attacking football with an emphasis on wing play and midfield creativity.
- Key Roles:
- Vitinha as the deep-lying playmaker.
- Nico Williams as the explosive winger.
- Inácio as the defensive anchor.

Optimal Lineup for Next Season: Image
tion: 4-3-3
- GK: Onana
- RB: Dalot
- CB: Inácio, Martínez
- LB: Carreras
- CM: Vitinha, Mainoo, Bruno
- LW: Garnacho
- RW: Nico Williams
- ST: Højlund
Final Thoughts:
Rebuilding United won’t be easy, but with bold decisions and strategic signings, the club ca
n return to its former glory.
