​Man Utd set to part ways with six free agents this summer

Manchester United are ready to lose six players at the start of the summer transfer window.

The Red Devils are making plans to reshape the squad for likely new manager Erik ten Hag.

According to the Mirror, United are set to allow six players whose contracts are expiring to move on in the summer.

Those players are Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Edinson Cavani, Juan Mata, Tahith Chong and Lee Grant.

There will be no attempts to convince any of these players to renew, as United are happy to shed their wages for a summer rebuild.

Others, such as Anthony Martial, Donny van de Beek, Dean Henderson, Phil Jones, Axel Tuanzebe and Eric Bailly are under contract, but may want to move on for regular game time.

United are likely to let a couple of them go, but whether more exits happen depends entirely on the plans of their new manager and how many players they can bring into the club.
