Manchester United Finally Set Eyes on Paul Pogba Replacement

Since his transfer to Juventus, Paul Pogba has yet to appear in a competitive match for the club. The midfielder was their most high-profile offseason addition, but he tore his meniscus in the preseason and missed the first half of the season.

Did Man United finally find their Paul Pogba Replacement?

Moises Caicedo, an Ecuadorian international and midfielder for Brighton, is reportedly the subject of a bidding war between Manchester United and Liverpool.

And this comes as Erik Ten Hag continues to look for a progressive midfielder to pair with Casemiro after he had a spectacular showing with his national side in Qatar.

The Red Devils were interested in signing the Brighton star during the January 2021 transfer window, but the deal fell through due to complications with obtaining the necessary work permits.

Caicedo began his professional career in the Ecuadorian division with Independiente del Valle, where he broke into the first squad as a 17-year-old after coming up through the club’s junior system.

Man United may be forced to sell Marcus Rashford

At the beginning of 2016, Marcus Rashford burst onto the forefront with four goals in his first two games for Manchester United, against Midtjylland and Arsenal. He went on to enjoy an outstanding career at Old Trafford, where he won every major trophy besides the Premier League.

Therefore, Rashford has a strong bond with the Red Devils. With his tireless social work in England, he has become a national hero and a fan favorite. Not to mention the fact that, with three goals, he is England’s leading scorer at the World Cup and it’ll be a shame to miss him out on our EPL live stream in Singapore for free.

Rashford’s contract expires at the end of the current campaign, therefore he may be released by the club. Rashford has some big shoes to fill, but he can do it.

There have been low points in Rashford’s career, but one constant is that he has always gotten back up and given it his all, which he is doing right now.

Is Caicedo the right Paul Pogba replacement?

Caicedo has emerged as a dominant force in the middle of the field for Ecuador throughout their two-year South American qualification campaign, and he is expected to lead the team to a successful generational transition. During his time with the squad, they won the Under-20 Copa Libertadores and the Copa Sudamericana.

He began his career as a defensive midfielder but has now evolved into a more well-rounded midfielder. He has a monster mindset in both the offensive and defensive phases, making him an aggressive tackler and ferocious competitor.

With Alexis Mac Allister as his teammate, the Ecuadorian international has a passing accuracy percentage of 85% and a tackle efficiency rating of 86% (2.79 tackles per 90). Caicedo’s continued importance to the Seagulls as an outstanding and aggressive presser is undeniable.

A very versatile and promising talent

When it comes to his athleticism and his ability to learn new skills, Moises Caicedo is a player with unlimited potential. The young genius, all 21 years old, is quite at ease with the ball in his feet and would fit in nicely next to Casemiro.

However, it is quite improbable that Brighton will allow him to depart on favorable terms. The Seagulls’ asking price of 85 million pounds is likely to turn off a number of elite clubs.

Caicedo has been quite public about his ambition to play for Manchester United, giving the Red Devils hope that they may lure him to Old Trafford. He has also expressed his respect for Paul Pogba, a former player for Manchester United whose playing style he greatly admires.

Adding Caicedo to Manchester United’s midfield options would be a smart move, but with the club up for sale in the new year, it will be intriguing to see exactly how Erik Ten Hag approaches the transfer window.
