Manuel Ugarte, 23, is set to usurp Casemiro, 32, from his position in the starting line-up.

The Uruguayan arrived in a £50million transfer from PSG and was announced on deadline day.

There have been question marks over the midfielder’s fitness, but the hope is that he will replace the Brazilian.

GiveMeSport have claimed that the ex-Real Madrid man will leave the club along with Eriksen before next season.

The report claims that Manchester United are trying to secure the pair’s replacements as a “priority”.

Eriksen arrived at Old Trafford on a free transfer after his short-term deal at Brentford expired in 2022.

The two stars earn a combined £525,000-PER-WEEK in wages from the club.

Their exits would give the club’s ownership a lot more freedom with the wage bill reduced.

Eriksen’s deal at Old Trafford expires at the end of the current season, so it is thought that he would leave once it expires.

Casemiro, however, is contracted to the club until 2026.

He was linked with a move away in the summer to the Saudi Pro League and Turkey.

Minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe is keen to bring younger faces into the squad.

It was thought that he would limit new signings to being a maximum of 25 years old when he arrived at the club.

But this rule was broken by the summer arrival of 26-year-old Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich.
