Manchester United made the announcement of exits of Eriksen, Lindelof & Evans shortly after their final game of the season finished at Old Trafford.
Emotional Goodbyes for Eriksen, Lindelof & Evans
On the weekend, Man Utd secured a 2-0 victory over Aston Villa at home. With Amad Diallo and Christian Eriksen scoring for the hosts on Sunday.
While Villa failed to make the **UCL**qualification. But, they would really have liked to finish the season well. But, they were reduced to ten men when Emiliano Martinez was sent off for a foul on Rasmus Hojlund.
Following the match, the headlines swiftly switched to the statements from the club after the match that Christian Eriksen, Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans are all leaving this summer.
Eriksen was a free transfer in 2022 and made over 100 appearances for the red devils. He provided vital goals and won both League Cup and FA Cup. But his influence faded and now Utd want fresh legs in the middle of the park.
United Legends Make Way for a New Era
Jonny Evans is a name well-loved by United fans. The defender also leaves the Old Trafford. He is product of the club’s academy, he had two stints with the team. He has made 241 appearances overall. His trophy cabinet currently holds three Premier League titles, a Champions League, and a League Cup. He returned last year when the club was struggling and even featured in the FA Cup final.
Victor Lindelof is the most capped of the departing trio. He exits after playing 284 games since arriving from Benfica in 2017. The Swede has had a mixed spell but contributed to recent domestic cup wins.
Utd’s decision to part ways with these players points to manager Ruben Amorim’s plan for a full squad rebuild.
