Manchester United are reportedly planning to offload Casemiro and Christian Eriksen before the start of the 2025-26 season.

Manchester United are reportedly prepared to offload Casemiro and Christian Eriksen within the next 12 months.

The Red Devils sanctioned a couple of midfield departures in the recent transfer window, selling Scott McTominay and Donny van de Beek to Napoli and Girona respectively.

After bidding farewell to Van de Beek and McTominay, Man United went on to strengthen their engine room with the addition of Manuel Ugarte.

The Uruguay international put pen to paper on a deal until at least June 2029 after completing a deadline-day move from Paris Saint-Germain.

While the recent transfer window may have only closed on August 30, Man United are already drawing up plans to make further changes to their midfield in 2025.

Man United planning for Casemiro and Eriksen exits

According to GIVEMESPORT, the Man United hierarchy are already planning to offload Casemiro and Eriksen within the next 12 months.

The report claims that the midfield duo earn a total of £500,000 a week and their exits will help significantly reduce the club's current wage.

Eriksen is out of contract at the end of the season, while Casemiro has two years remaining on his deal with an option to extend by a further 12 months.

Man United have already tasked sporting director Dan Ashworth to find 'youthful alternatives' who can replace Casemiro and Eriksen.

Experienced duo heading towards exit door

Casemiro is currently experiencing a difficult time at Old Trafford after seeing some of his performances draw significant scrutiny.

The Brazilian was heavily criticised for his display in the 3-0 defeat to Liverpool and was replaced at half time by academy product Toby Collyer.

The former Real Madrid man looks set to stay at the club until the new year despite recently being linked with a move to Galatasaray.

However, Man United are keen to freshen up their midfield and Casemiro already looks set to lose his place in the side to Ugarte.

In regards to Eriksen, the Red Devils will not offer the Denmark international an extension and could potentially look to offload him in the January transfer window.

The 32-year-old is finding playing time hard to come by after being given just four minutes of action across Man United's first three Premier League games.
