The futures of eight Manchester United players are in doubt as Jose Mourinho plans to trim his squad in preparation for Paul Pogba’s arrival.
‘The Sun on Sunday’ claim the Portuguese’s pursuit of the Juventus star – for a potential world-record £100m fee – could spark a mass clearout at Old Trafford.
It is claimed Mourinho wants to work with a close-knit 22-man squad, meaning several players could be sold or shipped out on loan.
Argentine international defender, Marcos Rojo, Morgan Schneiderlin, who in the France squad which has reached Euro 2016 final, and Germany’s captain, Bastian Schweinsteiger are most at risk after poor seasons, the report concludes.
