Former Manchester United defender, Jaap Stam, has advised his old club to strengthen their midfield by signing two players as potential replacements for Casemiro. Stam believes the Red Devils need fresh energy and consistency in the middle of the park as they plan for the future.

According to Stam, United should consider younger and more dynamic options who can control the tempo of matches while also offering defensive stability. He mentioned players like João Palhinha and Declan Rice as examples of midfielders who possess the physical presence and tactical awareness needed in the Premier League.

Stam explained that while Casemiro has brought experience and leadership to the team, the club must start preparing for a long-term solution. Injuries and age have raised concerns about relying heavily on the Brazilian star, making recruitment a key priority.

Manchester United fans will now be watching closely to see whether the club’s management takes such advice into account. With the Premier League becoming more competitive each season, strengthening the midfield could be vital for United’s ambitions of returning to the top.
