Manchester United Set for Massive Squad Overhaul with 10 Players Facing the Axe

Manchester United are gearing up for a significant squad rebuild this summer, with up to 10 players reportedly facing the exit door.

The Red Devils have endured a disappointing season, languishing in 13th place in the Premier League and facing elimination from the Europa League if they fail to win the competition.

Wholesale Changes Expected

New manager Ruben Amorim is keen to stamp his mark on the squad and is willing to make wholesale changes to bring in fresh talent.

The Portuguese tactician is believed to be targeting players who fit his system and style of play.

Players Facing the Exit

Several high-profile players are expected to leave Old Trafford this summer, including:

1. Marcus Rashford: The England international is expected to join Aston Villa permanently after a loan spell, with the Villans holding a £40m buy option.
2. Jadon Sancho: Sancho is likely to leave Manchester United despite Chelsea’s obligation to buy him for between £20m and £25m.
