5 midfielders who can replace Michael Carrick at Manchester United

Huddersfield Town v Manchester United - The Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round
Carrick has been a brilliant player for the Red Devils

#4 Marco Verratti (Paris Saint-Germain)

Paris Saint-Germain v Real Madrid - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg
Verratti's defensive capabilities make him more than capable of replacing Carrick.

Verratti has made quite a name for himself in Europe with PSG in recent seasons. The Italian has been one of the most impressive midfielders across Europe with his passing game.

At the age of 25, he has plenty of years left in him and would definitely want to challenge himself in a very difficult league such as England's top-flight. With PSG knocked out of the Champions League round of 16 once more, he could consider a move away from Parc des Princes in order to fulfil his long-term ambitions.

His passing style and defensive capabilities make him a great candidate to replace Carrick.

According to reports, he could be on his way to Old Trafford, with Manchester United considering a swap deal involving Paul Pogba.
