Man United and Lindelof to part ways in June; Fabrizio confirms
It's an end of a story for Victor Lindelof in a classic red shirt as the player is set to leave the club in June. By Ravi Kumar Jha Published on May 24, 2025, 19:52 IST The season is about to end and the club has already decided to make plans for the next season. Lindelof is not in the plans of Ruben Amorim, and thus, will be leaving. Also, there will be more players who will be leaving the side this summer and few incomings are also expected. It's the end of an era for Victor Lindelöf at Manchester United. After seven seasons at Old Trafford, the Swedish centre-back is set to depart the club in June, bringing his long-standing association with the Red Devils to a close. As the current season nears its conclusion, the club has already begun shaping its plans for the future under the expected leadership of Ruben Amorim. Lindelöf, unfortunately, does not feature in the Portuguese manager's vision and will be allowed to leave in the summer transfer window. Since joining United from Benfica in 2017, Lindelöf has made over 250 appearances in all competitions, showing moments of reliability and professionalism. However, injuries and increased competition in recent seasons have seen him fall down the pecking order. He is not the only name on the departure list, as a squad overhaul is expected at Old Trafford. Several other players are likely to leave, making way for fresh faces as United look to bounce back stronger next season.

Bernd Leno is Fulham's shootout hero as Manchester United exit FA Cup
In the squeaky posterior time of this FA Cup fifth-round penalty shootout Victor Lindelöf and Joshua Zirkzee were the unfortunate ones who missed the kicks that ended Manchester United's FA Cup defence and sent Fulham through. Related: Manchester United v Fulham: FA Cup fifth-round tie goes to extra time – live The final spot-kick score was 4-3 to the visitors who, marginally, deserved their passage, though this was a slog through 120 minutes of meagre fare that was no advertisement for the world's oldest knockout competition. Two years ago Lindelöf was United's hero, with his spot-kick, after semi-final extra time against Brighton, taking Erik ten Hag's side to the showpiece, which they lost 2-1 to Manchester City. In 2022-23 the Dutchman had already guided United to the Carabao Cup and followed that with last season's triumph in this competition. But, if Ruben Amorim is to emulate his predecessor with a trophy in a first campaign, then it will have to be in the Europa League, in which he takes his beleaguered team to Real Sociedad for Thursday's last-16 opening leg. Fulham's goalkeeper Bernd Leno saved both Lindelöf's and Zirkzee's penalties and Marco Silva's side now stand a quarter-final and semi-final away from a Wembley tilt at a first major piece of silverware. United were the same old sorry tale: a liability at the back and toothless in the final third. Fulham had taken the lead in first-half stoppage time when Calvin Bassey headed in from close range after Rodrigo Muniz had flicked on a corner, but Bruno Fernandes equalised with a superb shot from the edge of the area in the 71st minute. • Jamie Jackson's full match report to follow Download the Guardian app from the iOS App Store on iPhone or the Google Play store on Android by searching for 'The Guardian'.
