Carrick has been active in the transfer window, aiming to reshape his midfield. The club has signed Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans for a combined fee of around £80m. Further midfield additions and defensive reinforcements are anticipated. Attention has now shifted to player departures.
Harry Amass, who spent the latter half of last season on loan at Norwich and featured in pre-season matches, has been made available for a loan or permanent transfer. Dan Gore, a 21-year-old midfielder, made 34 league appearances for Rotherham during his loan spell last season. However, Carrick has indicated he will not feature in the first team this coming campaign, with opportunities likely limited to the Under-21s.
Toby Collyer, aged 22, received the same message from Carrick, despite his contribution to Hull City's promotion success last season. The news for goalkeeper Radek Vítek is unlikely to have come as a surprise. Vítek had publicly stated his wish to leave the club in an interview following a pre-season friendly against Wrexham. He expressed hope for interest from other clubs and readiness for either a loan or a permanent move, depending on the club's and potential suitors' preferences. Vítek's prospects of a first-team role were reportedly diminished by the signings of Karl Darlow and the contract extension of Tom Heaton.
