He claims that experiened players like Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof have been made available for a transfer in January as they have failed to prove their quality to be regular players under Ruben Amorim since he took over.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/11\/26\/manchester-united-closely-monitoring-theo-hernandez\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Manchester United Face Stiff Chelsea Competition for Desired Left-Back Target<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The journalist has added, however, that there is no concrete interest from any side for either of the two players yet. There is a possibly strong reason why this is happening, that is because both the players&#8217; current contracts expire at the end of June, 2025. This means any team can sign either player as a free agent in July 2025 rather than splurging out a transfer fee for them in the upcoming winter window.<\/p>\n<p>Despite that, United have put the players up in the transfer market and will hope to get something from their sales after also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Plettigoal\/status\/1866430725794504949\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reportedly<\/a> deciding to <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/12\/10\/manchester-united-marcus-rashford-transfer-listed\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">sell Marcus Rashford<\/a> in January.<\/p>\n<h3>How Have Eriksen And Lindelof Played Under Ruben Amorim?<\/h3>\n<p>Eriksen and Lindelof have hardly gotten any playing time since the Portuguese coach took over at Old Trafford. The Danish midfielder, who was hailed <a href=\"https:\/\/sportwitness.co.uk\/very-pleasing-national-team-boss-hails-good-news-for-incredibly-skilled-manchester-united-player\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">as &#8220;incredibly skilled&#8221;<\/a> recently, has made just three appearances under him.<\/p>\n<p>This includes Eriksen starting just two matches. The Red Devils failed to either fixture he started in (draw against Ipswich Town and loss to Tottenham Hotspur), and he hasn&#8217;t looked the sharpest in the new system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/11\/24\/bruno-fernandes-role-under-ruben-amorim\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Assessing Bruno Fernandes\u2019 Role and Adaptability Under Ruben Amorim<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Lindelof, meanwhile, also made three appearances under Amorim and picked up an injury in the defeat to Spurs in the Carabao Cup quarter-final.
