Manchester United are confident of sealing a £70m double exit deal ahead of the summer transfer window, according to Fabrizio Romano.
If the Red Devils want to invest significantly when the market opens later this year, then they could be forced to offload some of their high-value players.
Thankfully for them, they have some flourishing out on loan, and it's an ideal opportunity for them to cash in in order to fund incomings in the transfer window.
The likes of Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Andre Onana, and Rasmus Hojlund are all currently out on loan, and their futures appear to lie away from Old Trafford, considering they've been allowed to depart on temporary deals.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United are optimistic that they will receive in the region of £70m for Hojlund and Rashford combined in the summer transfer window.
The reporter claims that United could receive just under £44m for Hojlund as part of the whole package, and they are confident that a permanent deal with Napoli will be activated.
Romano adds that Barcelona are in advanced talks to sign Rashford permanently for a fee of around £26m, with the England international currently on loan in La Liga.

Rashford and Hojlund Permanent Exits Make Sense

If United can receive in the region of £70m for Rashford and Hojlund, it would make sense for them to cash in during the January transfer window.
The attacking duo are no longer players that are in the plans of United, and although they've both improved on loan, it's often a different environment that allows them to flourish.
Rashford's sale will be pure profit due to him coming through the academy, while the combined fees will almost cover what United paid for Hojlund in the first place.
If United are able to invest the money into the senior squad, then the double exit deal makes sense, considering they've both failed to have an impact for United over the last few years.
