Manchester United ready to let go of nine players in the summer including Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial

Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial are amongst a list of nine players Manchester United would be willing to part ways with next summer, according to the Mirror (h/t Tribun Jabar).

The stars who have not been able to convince Erik ten hag will be let go of by the Red Devils in the upcoming transfer window. They will end their time at the Old Trafford side for new additions to be brought in.

Maguire has been one of the most prominent faces at United over the years. However, the 29-year-old has lost his place in the team in recent months. Under the Dutch manager, the defender has fallen down the pecking order.

Victor Lindelof is another star on the list of players expected to depart the Old Trafford side. The Sweden international has found game time hard to come by in the current campaign.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka is another name from the backline who will be allowed to leave. The 25-year-old has been the second choice this season at right back behind Diogo Dalot. Full-back Brandon Williams is also surplus to requirements for the Red Devils.

In the attack, Anthony Martial has struggled with injuries in the current campaign. While the France international has been key to Ten Hag’s plans, the 27-year-old’s exit could be used to fund a new attacker.

Anthony Elanga is also on the shortlist to be transferred in the summer of 2023. The Swedish national attracted interest from Everton and other clubs in January.

Other players who are out on loan, like Dean Henderson, Eric Bailly and Alex Telles, could also be sold permanently if the right offers arrive for them.
