Reporter: Manchester United may provide Maguire and Casemiro with 1+1 contract extensions
6686 Sports Report on November 14th. Reporter Ben Jacobs talked about Manchester United's signings and player renewals on The United Stand. He said that the club may provide Maguire and Casemiro with one-year contracts plus a one-year extension option.
About Elliott Anderson
Jacobs: There are complicated and in some cases variable clauses in Anderson's contract, which can allow him to transfer next summer for a lower price than the rumored price of 120 million pounds, but the player has not considered the possibility of a transfer in January.
I think Anderson's transfer fee will be over £50 million, but not £100 million in certain circumstances, but this does change. If Nottingham Forest is relegated, the terms in the contract allow him to transfer at a cheaper price. If Nottingham Forest qualifies for the European War, the transfer will become more difficult. If Manchester United qualifies for the Champions League, it will be easier to introduce Anderson.
About Menu
Jacobs: Menu may seek to leave the team on loan in January because he hopes to get more game time and hope to participate in the World Cup.
However, United are unlikely to agree to let Menu or Zirkzee leave unless suitable replacements are introduced in the midfield and attack, because the club prioritizes maintaining sufficient lineup depth rather than raising players' expectations of participating in the World Cup.
About Ugarte
Jacobs: Ugarte’s situation is very calm for now. Amorim still believes that he is very suitable for the team’s system, just because Ugarte is not performing very well now, and the team now only has one game per week, which affects his playing opportunities, but I don’t think there is a conflict between Ugarte and Amorim.
About Casemiro
Jacobs: Manchester United is exploring ways to renew Casemiro's contract. The potential solution is to provide him with a one- or two-year contract, which may be a one-year contract plus a one-year extension option.
However, it is generally believed among sources that Casemiro needs to take a significant salary cut to stay on the team. If they cannot agree on a lower salary, Manchester United and Casemiro may part ways.
About Maguire
Jacobs: Maguire hopes to renew, but Manchester United is still carefully considering the terms of the contract and may be inclined to offer a short-term contract (1-year contract or 1-year contract plus 1-year extension option). The final offer provided by Manchester United will depend on their plans for next season, especially considering the schedule, revenue, whether they qualify for the Champions League and whether they plan to sign a new central defender.
