Harry Maguire is likely to leave and leave the role of captain to another star.

5. Raphael Varane

The French midfielder is one of the most experienced stars in his position. Varane has experienced important matches at both club and national level and has learned valuable lessons.

Varane is always a role model that any player wants to follow. So it won’t be a sᴜrprise when he is handed the Man Utd captaincy next season.

4. Lisandro Martinez

Although he only moved to Old Trafford in the transfer window last summer, “Licha” soon scored with the Red Devils’ fans with his fiery spirit and quality defensive skillset.

The 25-year-old is ready to face difficulties to help keep the home team’s net. Moreover, it was the fire and Ƅlood that Martinez showed that many times shocked the spirit of the Man Utd stars.

The World Cup champion has had a long time working with Erik ten Hag and fully demonstrates the qualities of a leader. Therefore, it is not excluded that the captain of the Red Devils will choose him as the next captain of the club.

3. Marcus Rashford

Several teams have let their top scorer hold the captain’s armband. It is a tactic that has been most clearly applied in Portugal and Argentina in recent years, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi always playing the role of captain.

Marcus Rashford has just had his best season, scoring 30 goals and regularly carrying the team with class performances. Therefore, Man Utd can also do the same for the English star.

2. Casemiro

There seems to be little debate if Erik ten Hag hands Casemiro the captain’s armband.

Similar to Varane, the Brazilian has won all the titles, but will probably be a more vocal leader.

Casemiro clearly shows leadership qualities, he is the player who helps Man Utd bounce back every time they concede a goal. If he can control his temper, the former Real Madrid star will surely become a perfect captain.

1. Bruno Fernandes

Since last season, whenever Harry Maguire has been injured or pushed to the bench, Ten Hag has let Bruno take on the role of captain.

The Portuguese held the position while playing for Sporting Lisbon and he continues to make an impact when entrusted with the task by Ten Hag.

Bruno always appeared in hot spots on the field, trying to defend or claim justice for his teammates. Some of the reactions from the 1994-born star may be a bit outrageous, but as the captain, he’s doing his job well.

With the effectiveness in both leadership and performance, Bruno is a leading candidate for the Man Utd captaincy in the new season.
