Manchester United could sell six players this summer as boss Erik ten Hag plots a major clear-out at Old Trafford, according to reports.
The Dutchman has worked wonders on the pitch with United on course to qualify for the Champions League and end their six-year trophy drought.
United’s improvements under Ten Hag have been built on his ruthlessness both on and off the pitch.
The SUN reports that Ten Hag is set to continue with that attitude, quoting the Mirror’s claims that a mass exodus could happen at the end of the season.
Harry Maguire could be the first out the door having fallen behind both Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez in the pecking order.
The United captain was linked with a move away from the club in January and hasn’t been able to show his best form for some time.
Midfielders Scott McTominay and Donny van de Beek will be joining them with the former starting once in the Prem since the Manchester derby on October 2, while the Dutchman’s time at Old Trafford has been a nightmare.
The report also claims that Anthony Martial, who’s struggled to stay fit this campaign, will also be moved on.
Martial has scored six goals in only 722 minutes of action this season, but he’s lost his place in the team to Marcus Rashford and Wout Weghorst.
Meanwhile, loanees Eric Bailly and Alex Telles are also likely to have played their last games for United.
Bailly is currently on loan at Marseille but his disruptions have followed him to France having started just six times in Ligue 1.
Telles has fared slightly better at Sevilla, featuring 19 times in all competitions, but a knee problem is currently keeping him on the sidelines.
