Manchester United Set to Sell 12 Stars As Ten Hag Plots Summer Overhaul

• Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial headline a long list of Manchester United players who could be sold
• Erik ten Hag is expected to embark on a massive summer overhaul following United's dismal Europa League outing
• Funds raised from the fringe players are expected to be reinvested in summer transfer targets

More than 10 Manchester United stars are in danger of being offloaded this summer following the Red Devils' elimination from the Europa League.

United have been inconsistent this season under the tutelage of Erik ten Hag, who helped the side win their first trophy since 2015 in February after their Carabao Cup triumph.

The Red Devils initially looked on course to win a treble this term, with the Europa League the other trophy they had been touted to win.

Ten Hag's charges were thought to be favourites for the European title after they initially saw off Barcelona and Real Betis in the knockouts.

However, the Old Trafford dwellers suffered a heartbreaking exit from the competition at the hands of Sevilla, who beat them 5-2 on aggregate in the quarter-finals.

12 Man United stars on the chopping board

Reports now suggest as many as 12 Man United players are on the chopping board, with Ten Hag keen to streamline his squad in preparation for next season.

It is understood that Ten Hag and Football Director John Murtough had already decided on who will be sold this summer.

However, the list has since grown after United's embarrassing 3-0 defeat against Sevilla in the second leg of their Europa League clash.

According to The Mirror, Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial headline a list of players who are facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford.

David de Gea's calamitous goalkeeping against Sevilla has also placed him on the chopping board, while the midfield duo of Fred and Scott McTominay are also under threat.

Anthony Elanga, Donny van de Beek and Brandon Williams have all been earmarked for sale, with Eric Bailly and Alex Telles, who are out on loan, also unlikely to return.

Wout Weghorst and Marcel Sabitzer, who joined the Red Devils on loan, are also expected to return to their parent clubs.

Meanwhile, the summer overhaul is expected to boost United's transfer kitty as they plan for more additions.

Maguire's fight with de Gea

It was a difficult night for the captain, who he had an altercation with his goalkeeper as United bowed out of the Europa League. The Red Devils were taken apart in Spain as Sevilla maintained a charge for a record title.

Sports Brief previously reported that after the first goal went in, fans believe Maguire told de Gea to shut up with a gesture. The veteran keeper was visibly upset that his skipper couldn't keep possession of the ball.

Maguire's time at Manchester has always been punctuated with high-profile errors. However, he is set to have a lengthy run in the team with Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane currently sidelined with injuries.
