Five players are due to leave Manchester United

Five players are due to leave Manchester United

Manchester United has a lot of players for this season and there are several players who are still waiting for opportunities to play, but these simply do not come.

The team at Old Trafford is not going through its best times and the negative results can be decisive for the management of the Manchester football club. Five quality players look forward to leaving, after being used very little or not at all. The club seems to have big problems in the locker room as well and for these things to settle down, a ‘general cleaning’ is required.

Let’s check the names that are on this list:

Dean Henderson: One of the players that Manchester United's management will let go in January is Dean Henderson, given that the 24-year-old clearly lost the battle for the starting position in front of David de Gea. However, the goalkeeper's potential and the desire of some people on the management board at Old Trafford to keep him long-term can make Henderson reach an agreement for a loan and not a transfer.

Jesse Lingard: Despite his good performance, Jesse Lingard has not been able to get a first-team starting place since returning to Old Trafford. During his loan spell at West Ham last year, he proved that he can be a good Premier League player and there has been a lot of speculation that he will look for a new club where he will receive more than several minutes on the pitch. It is even believed that United would be willing to accept a transfer for only 16 million pounds.

Donny van de Beek: It is not at all surprising that Donny van de Beek is close to leaving Old Trafford, having barely played since moving to the English club in 2020. According to the sports press, the Dutchman wants to have achievements with Manchester United, but it is also realistic if a good offer appears for him and for the club he will choose to leave.

Eric Bailly: Even though he just signed a new contract in April 2021 which expires only in 2024, with the option for another year, Eric Bailly is seriously considering leaving Manchester United. Bailly is only the fourth solution for the position of central defender, and Newcastle is preparing to pay the Ivorian an undeniable amount.

Phil Jones: Even though it will be two years in January since Phil Jones did not play an official match for the senior team, the Englishman still attracts interest. According to The Sun, there are 13 teams that would be interested in the services of the player who was not part of the England national team for a long time.
