United are looking for a Casemiro replacement<\/p>\n

Ederson is set to be the first new face through the door at Manchester United<\/a> this summer after the Reds agreed a deal worth up to \u00a338.3million with Atalanta for the Brazilian. However, a recent poll conducted by the Manchester Evening News suggests fans are hoping he is not the man the club have turned to to replace Casemiro.<\/p>\n

Casemiro brought down the curtain on his Old Trafford<\/a> career in the final home game of the season against Nottingham Forest last month. He had left Manchester by the time United played their final game of the campaign against Brighton, but was given a superb send-off having helped United<\/a> qualify for the Champions League<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The hunt is now on for his successor, and we asked fans to vote for who they would like to see replace the five-time Champions League winner.<\/p>\n

    The clear winner was Elliot Anderson. The Forest man is top of United’s wishlist but the issue is he is also wanted by Manchester City<\/a>, and it’s believed United’s neighbours are in pole position to land his signature. Anderson received a whopping 4,467 votes (56%).<\/p>\n

    In second place came Aurelien Tchouam\u00e9ni, with the Real Madrid midfielder receiving 1,639 votes (21%). It was quite telling to see Ederson receive just 6% of the votes (461 votes in total). While he will no doubt add depth to United’s midfield, it is clear fans do not see him as a Casemiro replacement and that a marquee signing is needed.<\/p>\n

    6% of fans decided none of the options given to them were the right moves for United, and Adam Wharton and Carlos Baleba both took 5% of the votes. Wildcard option Manu Kone of Roma took just 1% of the votes. You can see the results below:<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    So, it’s clear who United fans want to see as their No.6 next season, but will the Reds win the battle with City?<\/p>\n

    Meanwhile, Ederson might be a good addition as United look to build a squad capable of challenging on multiple fronts, but fans don’t see him as a replacement for Casemiro and will be hoping for some big business further down the line.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Man United are looking to sign a replacement for Casemiro this summer and the Manchester Evening News asked…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1009556,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[8813],"tags":[748,11493,79185,393,4884,2465,423,9060,16,15],"class_list":["post-1009555","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manchester","tag-britain","tag-casemiro","tag-elliot-anderson","tag-england","tag-great-britain","tag-manchester","tag-manchester-united-fc","tag-manchester-united-transfer-news","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116704283952009737","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1009555","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1009555"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1009555\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1009556"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1009555"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1009555"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1009555"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
