New players could also arrive to bolster the left flank.Nevertheless, INEOS could also resort to internal solutions if the head coach (who will most likely be Carrick) needs additional depth, especially with the club hoping to go far in the domestic cup as well, potentially stretching the campaign to 60 matches or more.Want more Stretty News coverage?

McKenna believes the likes of Rasmus Hojlund, Marcus Rashford, Andre Onana, and Jadon Sancho no longer have a future at Carrington, even if they don’t remain at their current clubs.On the other hand, Harry Amass, Toby Collyer, and Radek Vitek could well receive a call-up for the pre-season, where they would try to earn a place in the senior squad.Will Amass, Collyer & Vitek earn a place at Man Utd?Amass is a 19-year-old left-back who made his senior debut last season. In August, he was loaned to Sheffield Wednesday, where he cemented himself as the biggest attraction at Hillsborough Stadium.The teenager won back-to-back Player of the Month awards, something he bragged about in a controversial social media post when Amorim used Amass as an example for ‘struggling’ MUFC academy products, although the manager was likely referring to Wednesday’s woes rather than the player’s.Due to the Owls’ miserable situation on and off the pitch, United decided to cut Amass’ loan stint short and send him to Norwich in January, but he sustained a serious injury that wrecked the second half of his campaign.With Luke Shaw needing an understudy for next season, the London native could represent a cost-efficient solution.Like Amass, Collyer represented two clubs this season, starting at West Brom, before switching to Hull City. The 22-year-old had also made his senior debut for Man Utd last season, and he even usurped Casemiro in Amorim’s pecking order at one point before suffering an injury.Man Utd will be revamping their midfield this season, so multiple spots are up for grabs. Therefore, a solid pre-season could convince the club to entrust the Worthing native with a senior role.

The 22-year-old goalkeeper is gunning for a prominent role, but the United hierarchy could convince the Czech to remain as a back-up for Senne Lammens, especially if they sell Altay Bayindir.
