12 Man Utd stars facing uncertain futures this summer and who they could join
Now that Sir Jim Ratcliffe's purchase of a 27.7 per cent stake in Manchester United has finally been completed, the Ineos chief can start planning for the future.
The deal sees Ratcliffe take full control of sporting matters and, after the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules meant the club did not make any new signings in January, they are set for a busy summer in the transfer window.
According to the Daily Mail, United are plotting a major clearout that will give them more funds to spend on new signings. It is suggested as many as 12 stars could be set for permanent exits this summer and Mirror Football has taken a look at where those players could go...
Anthony Martial is expected to leave the club on a free transfer when his contract expires at the end of the season, with United keen to get his £275,000-a-week wages off their books given he has not hit double figures for the last four seasons.
A return to France could beckon, with Marseille having been linked with a move for the forward in January, while Turkish side Fenerbahce and several Saudi Pro League teams are also said to be interested in Martial's services.

Raphael Varane could also depart Old Trafford after United decided not to trigger a one-year extension on his £340,000-a-week contract and the defender has been linked with a potential return to Real Madrid, while a Saudi transfer has again been mooted.

Both Van de Beek and Hannibal's loan moves to Eintracht Frankfurt and Sevilla respectively contain options to buy.
Reports from Germany claim Sancho does not expect his loan move to Borussia Dortmund to become permanent, but the winger has attracted interest from the likes of Juventus and Tottenham in the past and they could revisit a potential move in the summer. Granada, meanwhile, are said to be keen on signing Pellistri permanently.
Despite triggering an option to extend his contract by a further year, Aaron Wan-Bissaka's future is 'uncertain' and reports have claimed he could be used as part of a player-plus-cash offer for Crystal Palace star Michael Olise.

One of Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof is expected to be sold as well.
West Ham may well revisit their interest in Maguire, while the likes of Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus have all been linked with Lindelof. Paris Saint-Germain are interested in signing following the news that Kylian Mbappe is set to quit the club this summer and United could be tempted to cash in.
Mason Greenwood is the final player who could be on the move, with the striker currently on loan at Getafe who have publicly stated their interest in making the deal permanent. Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have also been linked with the 22-year-old.
