Manchester United are in the midst of a busy summer of transfer action as Sir Jim Ratcliffe oversees his first window in charge of all football operations at Old Trafford.

Several big-name players have been targeted as possible new signings, wbut there are also a number of stars who are likely to leave Man Utd amid their INEOS rebuild.

Below, FootballTransfers runs through five players who could leave Man Utd this summer.

Bruno Fernandes

Captain Bruno Fernandes is facing an uncertain future as Saudi clubs continue to circle. Though the Portuguese has publically stated his intention to continue at Old Trafford, his agent has been in talks with sides abroad.

Al-Ittihad and Al-Nassr are both said to be keen on the 29-year-old, with Bruno reportedly favouring the latter due to the 'influence' of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Victor Lindelof

Despite the arrival of Leny Yoro for a whopping €70m, Man Utd remain in the market for a centre-back, with Matthijs de Ligt chosen as the man to come in.

However, before the Dutchman can be signed, someone will need to depart and Victor Lindelof now looks the most likely. The Swede has been linked with a reunion with Jose Mourinho at Fenerbahce.

Casemiro

Casemiro was widely criticised last season and many believe that the Brazilian's time at Man Utd should and will come to an end this summer. However, that may not be quite as straightforward.

Though FootballTransfers understands that Saudi clubs are confident of signing the veteran, we are also told that Casemiro wants to stay at Man Utd and prove that he can still do a job. Erik ten Hag is open to keeping Casemiro around, but the club hierarchy could look to cash in on him while they still can.

Christian Eriksen

Yet another midfielder, Christian Eriksen will have one year left on his contract at Old Trafford this summer and the early consensus is that he will be sold.

The Denmark international reportedly wants to leave Man Utd after falling down the pecking order and we understand he will be offloaded if a suitable offer arrives.

Antony

Though we could name many forwards here such as Jadon Sancho and Amad Diallo, the last name on our list is Antony, who has been nothing short of an unmitigated disaster for the Red Devils.

Just two years after arriving, Man Utd are open to offers for the €95m man and, based on his performances last season, it would be best for everyone involved if he were to move on this summer.
