Sergio Romero integrates the list of “expendable” in Manchester United: the two clubs that bid to hire him

This Monday the main portals of England woke up with the news that the Manchester United decided to dispense with several of its players who would be transferred in the coming days if suitable offers arrive, some could even go on loan to other clubs to alleviate the current salary bill.

The list was presented by the trained Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who understood that these six names will not add minutes in the remainder of the season and that is why they could be transferred. These are Marcos Rojo, Sergio Romero, Phil Jones, Jesse Lingard, Daniel James y Brandon Williams, whose destinations will be known in the next few hours.

According to the Daily Mail, the Argentine goalkeeper has two specific possibilities. One is to stay in the Premier League and join the Brighton struggling to maintain the category. Although there have also been “serious links with MLS”, specifically with the Inter Miami of David Beckham where he could meet again with his former teammate of the Argentine team Gonzalo Higuain.

Chiquito He arrived at the British team for the 2015/16 season, a campaign in which he only played 10 games. It could be suspected that perhaps his lack of opportunities had to do with the fact that he needed to adapt to English football, however in subsequent years his participation under the three sticks was much greater and until today he has only played 61 times, none of them them in the current campaign.

Before, the man emerged from Racing who is the goalkeeper with the most presence in the history of the albiceleste team, the Alkmaar Zaan region of Holland, from Sampdoria from Italy and from Monaco. The last campaign in which he started was in 2021/13 with the cast of Serie A.

In mid-2020, Romero was close to leaving, but according to his wife reported in networks, Eliana Guercio, the leadership did not allow it: “Sergio worked hard for his club. The last Cup they won was raised with him. He reached four finals / semifinals with the team and they took him out and then lost them. It is the moment when they must return the opportunity to him and let him go. Respect once“He wrote on his Instagram account in two posts, one in Spanish and the other in English.

The holder in the position is the Spanish David de Gea, while the second option is the 23-year-old Dean Henderson, who returned from his loan to Sheffield United for this season and renewed until 2025. Romero, 33, was very relegated, so he pressed at that time to be transferred.

In June, Aston Villa (before hiring the Argentine Emiliano Martínez) and the Everton They had it in their plans, but none of the proposals were successful. This last team, which is led by Carlo Ancelotti, thought of Romero to fight the position with Jordan Pickford, although it was also mentioned in Paulo Gazzaniga.

The other Argentine, Marcos Rojo, who has a contract until June 2021, would come to Boca Juniors and sign a three-year contract. The defender, who achieved one of the peaks of performance under the tutelage of Alejandro Sabella in the Argentine national team, has already built a long career. At Pincha he won a local tournament and was part of the team that won the Libertadores 2009. Then he went through the Spartak of Moscow, Sporting of Lisbon, until reaching the United, where he raised three trophies.

For his part, Jesse Lingard, 28, is linked to José Mourinho’s Tottenham, who led him during his time at United, and Sheffield United, another of those who struggles not to be relegated.

The truth is that the objective of the leadership of the Red Devils is to detach these players as soon as possible to lower the salary mass and focus only on fighting for the Premier League title. It is now that Solskjaer’s team is leading alongside Liverpool with 33 units and a pending match against Burnley, for the first date, which will be played on January 12. If they win or at least draw, they will be the only leader.
