Manchester United are ready to offload two players at all costs – but selling Harry Maguire is not a priority for manager Erik ten Hag, according to reports.

Man Utd are facing a battle to complete the transfers Ten Hag wants this summer. The ongoing takeover is stalling the Old Trafford club’s progress in the market while the Red Devils also face Financial Fair Play restrictions.

Mason Mount has already joined from Chelsea and Andre Onana is destined to arrive from Inter, but while there are talks for Atalanta’s Rasmus Hojlund ongoing, the prospect of the Red Devils landing their priority summer signings are slim.

The Athletic has detailed just how little leeway that Ten Hag has to work with in the transfer market this summer, yet even this does not mean that Man Utd will hold out for big fees for every player.

Indeed, there are two cited by the source who the club are willing to offload even at a steep loss.

Eric Bailly and Alex Telles are set to be dumped by the Red Devils, despite being signed for a combined total of €53 million.

Both players spent time away from Old Trafford on loan last season, with Bailly at Marseille and Telles with Sevilla. Neither club opted to make a deal permanent, though.

Maguire set to stay?

Harry Maguire is set to remain at Manchester United, according to the Manchester Evening News, which indicates that the club is unwilling to budge on its asking price for the player.

Maguire has a €58m (£50m) asking price on his head, despite being a peripheral figure at the club, and it is stated that interested clubs will baulk at such a fee.

Man Utd, it is stated, “are not actively looking to sell” the centre-back as they are feature they will not be able to upgrade him.
