Ten Hag looking to offload 4 from first team

Despite securing a return to the Champions League with a 3rd place Premier League finish last season, Manchester United need to have a good transfer window this summer.

The club have confirmed the arrival of Mason Mount from Chelsea, but they have also lost goalkeeper David De Gea at the end of his contract after 12 seasons, and don't have a big budget to make more signings until they sell more players. Manager Erik ten Hag reportedly has four players in mind who could be sold in order to raise more funds for the team.

According to 'The Independent', the Dutchman is eyeing moves for Harry Maguire, Fred, Scott McTominay and Jadon Sancho, in order to streamline his squad. Maguire's salary is the main sticking point when it comes to his move, as he is one of the Red Devils' higher earners, and many clubs have been put off.

The same outlet reports that London club, Fulham are interested in Fred while several clubs have shown interest in McTominay including Brighton, Roma, Newcastle and West Ham. The latter have been searching for midfielders, as they are on the verge of losing star Declan Rice to Arsenal.

Borussia Dortmund have reportedly seen a loan bid for Sancho rejected by United, who are keen on a sale, but the German side value the English striker, report 'Sky Sports Germany', and could go back at the end of the window with another loan bid that includes a low-cost purchase option.
