Manchester United Prepare Major Summer Clear-Out to Fund Midfield Rebuild

April 2026

Manchester United are planning a major squad clear-out as part of a broader summer rebuild, with reports saying the club hope to raise more than £100 million through departures. The outgoing list is said to include several senior names as United try to free funds and wages for key additions. More than eight senior players could leave, while separate tabloid-linked reporting named Marcus Rashford, Andre Onana, Joshua Zirkzee, Manuel Ugarte and Rasmus Hojlund among those potentially available. Casemiro’s exit is already part of that wider midfield reshaping, and Elliot Anderson remains one of the names linked as a possible replacement.

Manchester United and Casemiro have reportedly agreed to remove a performance-based contract trigger, clearing the way for the midfielder to leave this summer without the club risking an automatic extra year on his deal. The move simplifies his departure and removes any reason to manage his minutes for financial purposes. The reported clause would have activated if Casemiro hit a specific Premier League starts threshold. By waiving it, United can continue selecting him on merit while proceeding with a planned midfield reset, rather than balancing team selection against wage exposure.

Sandro Tonali is also being monitored, but Guimaraes currently appears to be the more advanced option in United’s internal planning

The captain also reached 100 assists in all competitions, capping another influential display in a key home win. Fernandes supplied the final pass for goals scored by Casemiro and Matheus Cunha, moving past Beckham’s 15 assists from the 1999-2000 season. After the match, he said the milestone was special because Beckham was one of the players many children tried to imitate while growing up.

He argues the current league season looks set for a low winning points total, so a well-run summer window could turn United into a real contender quickly.
