Manchester United are considering a summer clear-out 

As per Daily Mail, a mass summer clear-out is being worked out by INEOS’s sports hierarchy as they are resolute to scrape off dead wood in an effort to comply with Financial Fair Play regulations and lessen the club’s soaring wage bill. 

Among the players facing the axe is Brazilian forward Antony, whose substandard performance since his big money transfer from Ajax 18 months ago has forced the Red Devils to hear out potential offers. Other noteworthy names potentially on the chopping board include Casemiro, Jadon Sancho, Mason Greenwood, Aaron Wan Bissaka and Victor Lindelof. 

Furthermore, United are considering ending terms with players currently out on loan, such as Facundo Pellistri, Alvaro Fernandez, Hannibal Mejbri and Donny van de Beek. Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial, whose contracts expire on June 30 are also amongst the possible exits along with Johnny Evans and Tom Heaton, who would be free agents if not offered new terms. 

The clear out is seen as an essential step for United to get new reinforcement in the summer. The club is believed to prioritise getting a striker, central midfielder, right-back, and no less than one centre back. 

It is rumoured that Sir Dave Brailsford and Ratcliffe are eager to address the “massive misspend” as the starting line-up £357m while those who didn’t come up to scratch  accounted for £519m. 

As United gears up for a massive sporting overhaul, the focus shifts to the imminent squad rebuild and the club’s capacity to attain success under new ownership. The Red Devils have already made notable changes in the administrative department including the appointment of Omar Berrada as CEO and the possible recruitment of Dan Ashworth from Newcastle to be at the helm of the football division, replacing John Murtough. The side rebuilding course of action is just an extension of the present efforts to reinstate glory days at Old Trafford.
