2028/29 Starting XI
Bruno Fernandes has been the star of Manchester United since his arrival from Sporting Lisbon.
Fernandes has redefined what an attacking midfielder can offer by consistently delivering huge numbers in goals and assists.
However, with a rebuild on the horizon, this could be the right time to sell Fernandes to maximise his transfer value.
At this stage, embedding youth prospects into the starting XI is crucial.
By selling Fernandes and promoting talents like Sekou Kone and Shea Lacey, Manchester United could free up funds for a marquee signing in the 2029 summer window.
Sekou Kone, who was signed this summer for £1 million, is an athletic and dynamic midfielder capable of playing both the 6 and 8 roles.
His progressive passing and physicality make him a great fit for the team.
After a few years of adjusting to English football, Kone will cement himself as a regular starter at Old Trafford.
Shea Lacey is also a special talent.
Known for his incredible balance and technical superiority, Lacey thrives in pockets of space, drifting inside from the right to unlock defenses.
His rise in rotational minutes could mirror that of Phil Foden at Manchester City, with a similar versatility and ability to influence games in tight areas.
With his creativity and intelligence, Lacey is poised to become a key player in United’s future attack, earning more minutes and contributing in pivotal moments.
Predicted XI : Diogo Costa – Dalot – Yoro – J Branthwaite – Harry Amass – Sekou Kone – Mainoo – Kudus – Shea Lacey – Hojlund – Garnacho
