Former Premier League manager, Alan Pardew, has predicted that Manchester United could be relegated next season.
He said this is due to the failure of the Red Devils to solve their defensive issues.
Pardew, a former Newcastle United boss, said that the club’s decision to ban about five of their first-team players from squad training sent the wrong message to the rest of the players.
Speaking to talkSPORT, the former Crystal Palace man responded to the question of the Premier League team that’s most at risk of relegation in the 2025-2026 season.
He said, “All the teams in that bottom ten, including Man United.
“The issue is keeping goals out and at the moment they haven’t changed much from that.
“It all hinges on moving these five players, it’s almost like a fire sale at the moment.”
Players such as Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia and Antony have been banned from training with the Red Devils first team.
Pardew feels that such a dressing room situation sends a negative signal to other Red Devils’ players.
