by Man Utd ‘put THREE first-team stars on transfer list with Harry Maguire, Anthony Martial and Alex Telles set to be axed’
MANCHESTER UNITED are set to offload three first-team stars ahead of the summer transfer window, reports suggest.
United manager Erik ten Hag has pressed the reset button at Old Trafford which has already seen major changes, such as Cristiano Ronaldo’s dramatic exit.
According to Manchester Evening News, more senior players will follow Ronaldo out the door as Ten Hag continues to rebuild the Red Devils.
Those are Harry Maguire, Anthony Martial and Alex Telles who have fallen out of favour.
Martial has endured an inconsistent eight-year stint in Manchester, which has been marred by several injuries.
The forward’s woes have continued this season with five separate injury lay-offs.
The France international returned from a two-and-a-half week absence to score in the League Cup semi-final second leg win against Nottingham Forest on Wednesday.
But the 27-year-old withdrew from the squad for the Premier League victory over Crystal Palace three days later.
Maguire, on the other hand, has fallen down the pecking order at centre-back behind Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez.
Ten Hag also appears to prefer left-back Luke Shaw in that position, even when his captain is available for selection.
The England international was eyed by Inter Milan in January but preferred to wait until the summer before deciding his next move.
Telles has also fallen out of favour with Shaw and Tyrell Malacia preferred at left-back.
That is why the Brazil international was sent out on loan to Sevilla last summer.
Ten Hag is unlikely to give the 30-year-old any chances next season at United.
