Andre Onana has been linked with a move away from Man United
Manchester United trio Casemiro, Andre Onana, and Kobbie Mainoo have all sparked speculation about their futures after dropping transfer hints on social media.
It was reported that Saudi Pro League clubs hold an active interest in the United goalkeeper while Monaco have also been linked. While Ruben Amorim is said to prefer a keeper who suits his system, the position is not currently a top priority for the club and The Manchester Evening News understands that current United No.1 Andre Onana is expected to remain at the club.
Casemiro has also been linked with a summer move away from Old Trafford, with Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr reportedly interested in reuniting him wit Cristiano Ronaldo. The former Real Madrid midfielder has one year left on his contract, with the Reds holding an option to extend it by a further year, as he enters the latter stages of his career.
At 33, this summer was perhaps seen as the last chance for the Reds to recoup a decent fee for him. Casemiro was signed from Real for £70million three years ago and is among United’s top earners, reportedly earning £350,000 per week.
As for Mainoo, The Guardian reported in March that the 20-year-old was inclined to turn down a new contract at Old Trafford and pursue a move abroad. The youngster signed a new long-term deal in February 2023, running until 2027 with an option for a further year.
Amid ongoing uncertainty about the trio’s futures, a recent club post on social media may have given a significant hint. On Tuesday, United took to Instagram to share the players' new profile pictures, featuring Casemiro, Mainoo and Onana all wearing the club's new kit for the forthcoming season.
The post was later liked by all three, potentially suggesting they may stay put this summer.
