Paul Pogba remains one of the most important players at Manchester United. But with just a year left on his current deal, it very possible that he could end up leaving the club in this summer transfer window.

Of course, him departing this summer would be a massive blow for the club. But if they cannot agree a contract extension soon, the Red Devils might very few other options but to let him leave. Otherwise, he will become a free agent a season later.

As a result, the club must be prepared for all scenarios and have potential replacements on their radar in case the midfielder was to leave.

They have been linked with several midfielders over the past few months. And while it does not look like moves for the likes of Declan Rice will happen, there are a few who the club could possibly sign this summer.

Camavinga is one of the most highly-rated youngsters in world football. Despite being just 18 years of age, he already has some impressive experience under his belt and has already represented the France national team.

And with just a year left on his current deal at Rennes, he could very well be on the move this summer. Manchester United are one of the clubs he has been linked with although a number of the biggest clubs around Europe are believed to be interested in the Frenchman.

If the Red Devils are able to sign him, it should be considered as a major coup for the club and he could be the replacement for Pogba in midfield for years to come. Of course, it won’t be easy considering the competition for his signature.
