Manchester United will listen to offers for up to 13 players this summer in the hope of raising as much as £100 million for new signings.
Mail Sport can reveal what United will demand for stars like Jadon Sancho, Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial to give manager Erik ten Hag more spending power in the transfer market.
Ten Hag’s budget has been cut to around £120m due to Financial Fair Play restrictions as he looks to sign a midfielder, a striker and a goalkeeper.
It is one of the reasons why United are refusing to bow to Chelsea’s £65m demand for Mason Mount in a bid to save as much money as possible for their other targets.
The search for a striker has been hampered by the valuations put on Tottenham’s Harry Kane, Victor Osimhen of Napoli and Atalanta’s Rasmus Hojlund. United have also held talks with Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana who would cost in the region of £40m.
The club hope that selling some of the current squad will raise at least £50m and possibly even £100m to re-invest, although sources within the football industry have dismissed any suggestion of a fire sale and it’s understood there is no prospect of all 13 of the available United players leaving.
In the case of Sancho, Martial, Maguire and Scott McTominay, it’s understood that none of them are being forced out of Old Trafford and United are happy to let them stay and fight for their places. If any one of the four departs, it would leave a gap in the squad that needs filling before the start of the new season.
United would listen to offers in the region of £45m for Sancho who has struggled to make the impact expected of him since arriving from Borussia Dortmund for £73m two years ago.
Maguire cost £80m from Leicester in 2019, but will be allowed to leave if a £40m offer comes in.
Although the United captain made just eight Premier League starts last season after slipping down the pecking order of centre-backs under Ten Hag, he remains an England regular.
Martial is entering the final year of his contract and United would want around £25m for the erratic Frenchman.
