Manchester United’s off-season overhaul under Ruben Amorim is moving rapidly as the club prepares to raise funds for an ambitious rebuild.
With the post-season tour set to begin following their 2-0 win over Aston Villa, several high-profile stars are facing uncertain futures at Old Trafford.
Marcus Rashford continues to attract strong interest from Barcelona, while Real Betis are pushing for a permanent deal for loanee Antony.

Jadon Sancho is also expected to be sold, with United resigned to moving him on regardless of Chelsea’s stance on making his loan permanent.
Even club captain Bruno Fernandes could be sacrificed, with Saudi Arabian giants Al-Hilal preparing a mammoth £100 million offer.
But the most immediate and dramatic exit appears to be that of Alejandro Garnacho.
The Argentine winger is on the verge of a swift and bitter departure, with Napoli stepping up their efforts to sign him this week.
According to i Paper, Napoli’s sporting director Giovanni Manna is due to meet with United officials for talks, having failed with a £40 million bid in January.

United are said to value Alejandro Garnacho closer to £60 million, but a compromise around the £50 million mark is now being explored, especially given the club’s urgency to comply with Profit and Sustainability Rules.
Garnacho’s situation escalated after he publicly criticised Amorim’s decision to exclude him from the Europa League final against Tottenham, a match United ultimately lost.
The 20-year-old was again omitted from the squad for the Villa clash, and although Amorim confirmed he would travel on the post-season tour, it is widely believed to be a mere formality before his exit.
“Alejandro Garnacho continues to be a Man United player, not in the squad today but still a Man United player,” Amorim said on Sunday.
“He will fly with us for post-season tour.
“We need to be all there, we have to give something back to our fans.”
Despite Chelsea also expressing interest, Napoli remain in pole position and are already lining up a blockbuster double swoop with Kevin De Bruyne expected to join from Manchester City on a free transfer.
Selling Garnacho, a product of United’s academy, would represent pure profit under the league’s financial regulations – a key incentive behind the club’s push to finalise his departure.
