How Man Utd could benefit in as many as three ways from in-form PL club’s ‘summer of change’ | OneFootball

Manchester United will be keeping a close eye on Bournemouth’s end to the season as they target two members of their squad – and perhaps even their manager.

Indeed, it was confirmed by expert David Ornstein yesterday that Andoni Iraola would be leaving the Vitality Stadium when his contract expires at the end of the campaign, despite Bournemouth chiefs pleading for him to stay put.

United set sights on Bournemouth duo alongside Iraola

Of course, it comes amid United’s ongoing search for a permanent manager ahead of Michael Carrick’s interim tenure coming to an end next month, although there is still a possibility that he is retained for the long haul.

As well as monitoring Iraola’s situation, MailSport claims that United have begun sizing up moves for Junior Kroupi and Marcos Senesi, with it looking as though a ‘summer of change’ is on the horizon in Dorset.

Senesi, 28, is out of contract in June, prompting interest from the likes of United, Chelsea and, if they were to stay in the top flight, Tottenham Hotspur.

While a centre-half isn’t INEOS’ utmost priority heading into the window, there is an acceptance that depth will be essential if the side secure Champions League qualification in the coming weeks.

Additionally, Harry Maguire may be released next year if United opt against activating his 12-month clause, while Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt are proving to be too injury-prone to depend upon.

How coveted Kroupi is faring

As for Kroupi, he is enjoying a scintillating maiden season in England.

His last two outings have seen him score against United and league leaders Arsenal at the Emirates, meaning the 19-year-old has now found the back of the net against the two Premier League giants home and away.

What’s more, following his tremendous showing in North London on Saturday, Kroupi became the first teenager to record 10 league goals in a single term since Robbie Keane in 2000.
