Coach Ten Hag intends to conduct a comprehensive ‘blood change’ at the end of this season, with 17 names included in the transfer list.
According to Sportsmail, Ten Hag is not afraid to remove famous players, including captain Harry Maguire or veteran goalkeeper David De Gea.
De Gea’s contract is about to expire
The contract between De Gea and the Red Devils expires in June 2023 and the two sides have not yet agreed to sign a new one. MU can activate the extension for an additional 12 months to collect the fee when selling the Spanish guard.
Patient Anthony Martial will also have to pack up and leave Old Trafford after 8 years. Ten Hag appreciates the student’s ability, but he is too tired with the injury history of the French-born striker.
Midfielders Fred and McTominay and Wan-Bissaka are allowed to leave if the club accepts a reasonable offer.
In addition, a series of factors that rarely played under the Dutch leader needed to find a new destination, including Anthony Elanga, Victor Lindelof, Donny van de Beek and Brandon Williams.
Martial is constantly tormented by injuries
MU will sell two defenders who are on loan, Alex Telles and Eric Bailly. Phil Jones and Axel Tuanzebe are out of contract, so they will become a free agent.
Regarding the case of two MU players on loan in the winter transfer window, Wout Weghorst and Marcel Sabitzer, the club will not sign long-term so they will return to the host team.
The massive “purge” scheme could help Ten Hag and his associates raise more than £200 million to recruit recruits.
The Dutch strategy will bring in a quality striker, with targets in sight are Osimhen, Harry Kane, Kolo Muani or Goncalo Ramos.
In addition, the Red Devils also target the “burning” midfielder duo in Brighton shirt, Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo.
