Manchester United have reportedly decided to put their entire squad, bar four players, up for sale this summer. The Red Devils are looking to keep Harry Maguire, Bruno Fernandes, Amad Diallo and Patrick Dorgu at Old Trafford.
As per a report in the Daily Star, Manchester United want to refresh the squad and give manager Ruben Amorim the players he wants. They believe that the majority of the players are not suited for his system and see this summer as the ideal time to make the changes.
Fernandez, Diallo, Dorgu, and Maguire are seen as the only players who will definitely remain at the club next season. The four players are seen as the backbone of Amorim’s starting XI and will not be sold despite interest.
Al Hilal are keen on signing the Portuguese midfielder and are ready to make a move this summer. However, the Red Devils captain is also not looking to leave Old Trafford as per transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Alejandro Garnacho, along with Kobbie Mainoo, Luke Shaw, Manuel Ugarte, Casemiro, Rasmus Hojlund, Matthijs de Ligt, and Joshua Zirkzee, have been made available by the club. Manchester United are looking to raise money as they plan to buy new players.
Former United defender Paul Parker has urged Manchester United to sell Alejandro Garnacho but keep Kobbie Mainoo at all costs. He believes that the midfielder is a key part of the club but the Argentine winger will not be missed if he is sold soon.

Parker continued:
Manchester United put both players up for sale in January and Chelsea were interested. The Red Devils slapped £70 million price tags on both players and the winger has attracted interest from Atletico Madrid and Napoli.
