Manchester United are preparing to sell a number of key players in the upcoming window.

The likes of Harry Maguire, Antony Martial and Scott McTominay will be heading for the exit, reports the Mirror, who say that Alex Telles, Eric Bailly, and Donny van de Beek will also be shifted on.

The publication also states that there will be the imminent announcement of new investors and that the Glazer family’s £6 billion sale of the club is finding its feet.

FootballTransfers reported previously that this will be the case and that Erik ten Hag has consequently drawn up his summer plans and outgoings, with a huge overhaul in mind.

Ten Hag's revolution will many names on big wages depart. There is an ambition to become better sellers and emulate the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City - and there is now a huge onus has gone into the quality of the academy. The side hope to develop stars and draw on hefty fees in the future, which they can invest back into the first team.

We reported that Man Utd have given their coach a bigger hand in recruitment and he works closely with football director John Murtagh. Unlike Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, new players have not been brought in over the Dutchman’s head: Norwegian did not want the likes of Donny van de Beek and Amad Diallo, but the club actioned the move for them in any case.

The club have started to recognise that they must hand power to those in the dugout, which is why a mass exodus is expected in 2023.
