Manchester United<\/a> begin their Premier League<\/a> campaign with an away trip to take on Hull City this weekend. While several new signings are expected to feature in the clash against the newly promoted side, a few more names might follow by the month end.<\/p>\n Spanish source Diario Sport has reported<\/a> that Manchester United have been presented with an opportunity to sign Marc Casado by Barcelona<\/a> with the Catalans prepared to sell the La Masia graduate in order to balance their books.<\/p>\n Rodri\u2019s acquisition from Manchester City<\/a> means Casado is expected to drop further down the pecking order under Hansi Flick, and the best solution for the player and the club would be to go their separate ways in the ongoing transfer<\/a> window.<\/p>\n As per Mundo Deportivo<\/a>, Barca were seeking \u00a334 million for Casado\u2019s services earlier in the summer but as they are now looking to move on from him, there might be room to negotiate the Spanish youngster\u2019s asking price.<\/p>\n If Manchester United sign Marc Casado from Barcelona, they would be significantly bolstered by the addition of a player who would be a long-term replacement for Casemiro<\/a> as their number six.<\/p>\n Casado does not have as strong a physical prowess as the Brazilian international, who left the club at the end of last season, but the way he reads the game, his pressing and his man marking help the 22-year-old regain possession effectively in the final third.<\/p>\n Having graduated out of La Masia, Casado is also very comfortable with the ball at his feet and distributes passes nicely from a deeper-lying role. He excels at exchanging the ball with his teammates to retain possession but can also break the lines.<\/p>\n Whether Manchester United can guarantee Casado a starring role at the club remains to be seen, but at \u00a334 million, the Spanish talent would be a terrific addition to the club this summer.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCasado a solid option for Manchester United<\/h2>\n
