There have been suggestions that the Red Devils could make two or more additions, if funds allow.
Speaking on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, Schmeichel floated a wildcard alternative for United: Xhaka.
Explaining his reasoning, the Dane argued that Xhaka would bring experience and leadership to the side, thereby filling the gap set to be left by Casemiro.
Schmeichel said, âI think we should go and sign Xhaka.â
Scholes immediately responded, âNo, Pete. I have watched him, but youâre probably in the same boat as Casemiro then, arenât you really?â
The former goalkeeper continued, âI make my case, what we are going to do is build the team around Kobbie, right. Now Casemiro is leaving. Now you bring in somebody like Wharton, Anderson whatever⊠thatâs still young, thatâs still untried.â
âWhat we need and what we donât really have apart from Harry and Bruno in that team is proper leadership. When I look at what Xhakaâs done for Sunderland, Xhaka is the reason they are where they are.â
âHe has been absolutely amazing, his leadership qualities are great, he can play 80 per cent of the games, heâs a really good player. Weâre desperate for more leadership.â
Intrigued by the idea, Nicky Butt added, âXhaka would come in and go, âIâm not playing every gameâ, but he would bring a lot to the squad.
Xhaka has made 31 Premier League appearances for Sunderland this term, contributing one goal and six assists.
