Erik ten Hag to sell 11 Manchester United players to raise £100m for transfers

<p>

Manchester United are set to offload 11 players as manager Erik ten Hag aims to generate over £100million in transfer fees to revamp his squad. </p>

<p>

To make room for desired new additions, the squad needs to be streamlined. Long-serving defenders Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones have already departed upon the expiration of their contracts. </p>

<p>

Goalkeeper David de Gea is also expected to leave as a free agent after declining the club's contract offer. </p>

<p>

Dean Henderson is likely to depart permanently, with Nottingham Forest interested in acquiring him following his loan spell. </p>

<p>

Manchester United could potentially receive around £25million in a transfer fee for him. Defenders Alex Telles and Eric Bailly, returning from loan spells, are considered prime candidates for sale. </p>

<p>

Left-back Brandon Williams, who had limited playing time last season, and academy graduate Anthony Elanga are also available for offers. </p>

<p>

Furthermore, Hannibal Mejbri, another youth graduate, can be acquired for a similar price following his loan spell at Birmingham. </p>

<p>

Captain Harry Maguire, midfielder Donny van de Beek, and forward Anthony Martial are all open to offers despite their substantial transfer fees and wages. </p>

<p>

United are particularly interested in signing a new midfielder and are willing to consider offers of £20million for Fred. </p>

<p>

In total, Manchester United intend to raise over £100million in transfer fees, while reducing wage expenditure, to facilitate a squad restructuring. </p>

<p>

The club aim to secure a new starting goalkeeper, two strikers, a midfielder, and a defender as part of their plans under Ten Hag. </p>
