Manchester United faces the possibility of losing Bruno Fernandes to injury for an extended period. This opens up opportunities for players like Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, and Lisandro Martinez to step up in Fernandes’ absence. Mainoo has struggled for game time, while Mount and Martinez could provide midfield options for the team. During his time at Ajax, Martinez played as a number six in the middle of the park, averaging close to 66 passes with an accuracy above 86%. He offered balance in midfield without the creativity of Fernandes. Ugarte struggled in his place, failing to impress and losing all seven of his last starts.
