Romano KNOWS the four Man Utd players who will be next to leave
Fabrizio Romano has revealed which four Manchester United players are destined to leave the club in the next few weeks.
Speculation has been rife that the Red Devils are willing to allow a string of first-team players leave in the summer to allow manager Erik ten Hag to upgrade his squad. The Dutchman needs revenue to fund signings, having been given little guidance over his transfer budget from the board, and he also needs to make space in the squad for players.
There has been significant noise over which players could be leaving in the summer, but Romano has cut through this to reveal which four players will be out the Old Trafford door next.

Who will Man Utd sell this summer
FootballTransfers exclusively revealed that Harry Maguire is wanted by Tottenham, Aston Villa and Everton this summer, and Romano has confirmed that the former Leicester and Hull centre-back will leave Man Utd.
The transfer specialist also confirmed that Wout Weghorst will depart Old Trafford this summer. The Burnley forward arrived on loan as a stop-gap solution in the wake of Cristiano Ronaldo’s unexpected departure from the club shortly before the World Cup.
Romano reports that United have “no interest” in making the loan deal permanent, which is little surprise given the player failed to score a single Premier League goal this season. Everton as well as clubs in Spain and Germany are linked with him instead.

Dean Henderson, meanwhile, is in “advanced negotiations” to stay at Nottingham Forest next season after a loan to their Premier League rivals during 2022/23, which was interrupted by injury problems and led to Keylor Navas joining the City Ground side.
Finally, Romano reveals that Donny van de Beek is exploring the possibility of leaving the club. He would love to remain at the club but will look at other options in order to enhance his playing time. It is a call that he has made with some difficulty, though.
