Manchester United boss Ruben AMorim has reportedly given the green light to let Christian Eriksen leave the club at the end of the seaosn as he is not part of his long-term plans at Old Trafford.

After making a stunning return to football back a few seasons ago with Brentford – Eriksen showed the world that he is still able to compete at the very highest level and create the chances that got him a move to Inter Milan

Manchester United made the decision to bring him to Old Trafford in hope that Eriksen still had that ability to create goals on a regular basis – just like he managed during his time with Tottenham sitting behind Harry Kane.

Now – Per Fabrizio Romano, Christian Eriksen is all set to leave Manchester United at the end of the 2024/25 campaign. United are yet to negotiate a new deal with the player who is in the final year of his contract.

There is no doubt that Eriksen is a brilliant player – but his time at the top of the game is done and allowing him to leave to make space for a more hungrier player is the right decision to make.

We are sure that there will be a few offers for Eriksen to take – we are sure that he is will ok with the news that he is no longer needed at the club – and we are sure that Amorim already has a replacement in mind.

When Eriksen does leave – Manchester United fans will surely wish him the best of luck as he has proven to be a good signing at times, it has just been a shame that he has been unable to recreate the creativity that he showed at Tottenham.

GYOKERES UPDATE GIVEN

This season, he has already scored 23 goals for the Portuguese side, recently bagging a hat-trick against Manchester City in the Champions League and continuing to make a real name for himself at the Portuguese giants.

the likes of Arsenal, Man United and Chelsea are just three clubs that are reportedly ready to splash the cash and bring the in-demand striker to the Premier League, and it is looking much more likely that a transfer happens after the departure of Amorim.

Amorim’s agent Hasan Cetinkaya revealed in the summer that Gyokeres was only at Sporting because of Amorim, and now the incoming Red Devils boss has claimed that the striker may also decide to leave the Portuguese giants.

But despite the reports that he could make the move to Old Trafford, Speaking to Fotbollskanalen, Gyokeres said, “Joining Amorim at Man United? Probably he already has strikers there. It’s sad to see him leaving Sporting, but we understand his decision, of course.

‘He’s been key for me, Amorim gave me a chance helping me to develop.”

What Has Been Said by Amorim?

After Sporting CP thrashed Manchester City in the Champions League, the Portuguese coach told TNT Sports, “I can’t make fun of it, right now, it was hard for me to leave, if I start joking about this Gyokeres situation I’ll get in trouble.

‘This is my city, this is my country, so I’ll respect it. Viktor has to stay until the end of the season, and then his life maybe is going somewhere else.”

GARNACHO EYES BIG MOVE

Former Red Devils star Nicky Butt believes Manchester United star Alejandro Garnacho is privately eyeing a move to Real Madrid or Barcelona in the future.

Garnacho has been one of the better and more influential players at Old Trafford during the club’s recent struggles, reaching double-digits last season and scoring seven goals in 18 games so far this term.

However – there has been some transfer speculation that he could be interested in a move away from Old Trafford in the coming windows, having been previously been linked with moves to Juventus and Atletico Madrid.

But Butt can see him ‘wanting’ to leave if there was an opportunity to join La Liga giants Madrid or Barca: ‘The Premier League is the best league in the world but all the best players always leave and go to Spain, go to Real Madrid or Barcelona,’ Butt said on the Football’s Greatest podcast.

‘If you look at all the superstars, they never stay in the Premier League. They stay until they need to go to the next level.

‘A lot of the players see the next level as being Real Madrid or Barca but we don’t see anywhere bigger than Man United. Our mentality is if you leave Man United you’re going down.

‘You don’t get appreciated here like you do at Madrid. You can guarantee Kylian Mbappe will be in the running for the Ballon d’Or next year because he’s at Real Madrid.

‘It’s like Garnacho, he’s doing well here now, he’s a young Argentinian boy. If he keeps going, you can imagine him wanting to go to Real Madrid or Barcelona. Players become superstars there, not only on the football pitch.’

There is a massive lure of making a move to the likes of Madrid and Barcelona, Garnacho has been impressive for Manchester United at times, but he is not going to get that move to the La Liga giants unless he improved by a couple of levels.
