Everton midfielder James Garner is being named as the perfect replacement for Casemiro at Manchester United.
David Moyes has relied heavily on Garner throughout the campaign as the midfielder has taken his game to another level.
It really has been an impressive 2025/26 campaign for the 25-year-old, who will be hoping to mark his success through a call-up to the England squad this week.

A possible summer move cannot be ruled out for any player at Everton, but it would take serious money to prise Garner away at this stage in his contract.
A phone call will be on the player’s mind this week, with the opportunity to play in the World Cup overshadowing any potential thoughts of his next move.
