Really in the end if Yuu were to endter a relationship it would come down to two options:

Mika:

Mika and Yuu definitely have a very special bond. As of now their relationship is platonic but Mika most likely has feelings for Yuu. When Mika told Yuu he loved him he used Daisuki which can be used for friends but can also be used as a confession. The latter however is the more likely the case.

Shinoa:

Yuunoa is the second most most popular ship for Yuu. Shinoa and Yuu think of each other as close family. Shinoa is arguably the closest friend to Yuu in their squad. Shinoa has a crush on Yuu which Yuu is completely oblivious of.

Personally I don't think Yuu will end up with either of them. If Kagami took the Yuunoa route he would piss a good chunk of the fanbase. If Kagami took the Mikayuu route he would risk losing popularity in Japan since Japan is still a kinda homophobic country. The smartest and safest way would be to satisfy both sides by making the ending ambiguous. Let the fans decide for themselves. first of all yunoa is MOST popular ship and they seem increasing more likely.japan is not homophobic and yu knows whats a friend and whats romantic and soon shinoa will confess Uh. Correction. Mikayuu is the most popular ship. Yuunoa is popular but to say it's the most popular is incorrect. And popularity doesn't guarantee it will become canon anyway.

Also Shinoa technically confessed already, though it came from Shikama Doji. Yu didn't have much of a reaction to it. He may come to develop feelings for her later however. I'd like to see Kagami develop their relationship more.

And Yu doesn't seem romantically interested in anyone. So he probably doesn't even try to see the difference between a friend and romantic partner, since he sees anything that moves as family. yuunoa is more popular on reddit
