Shock Twist in Man Utd’s Pursuit of Casemiro Replacement

Man Utd Face Competition for Goretzka

Manchester United could face unexpected competition for Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka, who has emerged as a potential replacement for Casemiro. While United have long been linked with Goretzka, Bundesliga club Union Berlin have also expressed interest in the German international.

Union Berlin’s director, Horst Heldt, has openly admitted the club’s admiration for Goretzka and his potential availability.

Goretzka’s contract with Bayern expires next summer, and the German club may be open to selling him in January or next summer to avoid losing him on a free transfer. However, United’s strong relationship with Bayern could give them an advantage in the race for his signature.

Ultimately, the decision on whether to pursue Goretzka will rest with new Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim, who is currently assessing the squad and formulating his plans for the future.
