Manchester United fans are unhappy with the news that youngster Zidane Iqbal could be leaving this summer.
According to journalist Michael Plant, Iqbal is likely to go out on loan but doesn't rule out a permanent sale.
United fans are frustrated that the club would entertain letting one of their most talented young players leave.

The 20-year-old midfielder made just one senior appearance in the 2022-23 season, in the Champions League.
It would be understandable for him to want to leave in hopes of getting regular first-team football.
Man Utd fans react to Iqbal news
United fans are clearly upset at manager Erik ten Hag for his lack of willingness to give chances to young players, including Iqbal.
Can't sell players like Maguire and Mctominay so We're gonna sell our future so we can get some money from them, I feel disgusted.

Mount to Man Utd?
If United were to sell Iqbal, they would likely spend the money on Chelsea star Mason Mount.
The Red Devils are readying a second bid for the England international, according to reports.
Their initial £40m (€47m) offer was rejected by Chelsea's new sporting management, while new head coach Mauricio Pochettino still maintains slim hopes of convincing Mount to stay.
Not to be deterred by this rejection, Manchester United are said to be readying an improved offer.
