Manchester United's Summer Clearout: Rashford, Sancho, Antony Among Five Players Told to Find New Clubs

Manchester United have informed Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, and Tyrell Malacia to delay their return to pre-season training as the club pushes for their departures this summer710.

Key Updates on Player Exits
1.Marcus Rashford's Situation

Despite being excluded from Erik ten Hag’s plans last season, Rashford has been training in Spain to stay fit and is open to returning if no transfer materializes7.

His iconic No. 10 shirt has already been reassigned to new signing Matheus Cunha7.

Valuation: £40m, but his £325k-per-week wages complicate any deal. Barcelona have shown interest in a loan, but no formal talks have begun78.

2.Jadon Sancho’s Uncertain Future

Chelsea opted against a £25m permanent deal, paying a £5m penalty instead8.

Manchester United are considering a free loan exit with a possible contract extension to retain his value for a future sale8.

3.Antony’s Potential Loan Extension

After a successful loan spell at Real Betis, the Brazilian winger could stay in La Liga for another season, with Betis keen to retain him9.

4.Alejandro Garnacho’s Controversial Exit

The Argentine winger angered the club by posing in an Aston Villa shirt during his holiday, further straining relations10.

United may now accept a reduced fee of around £45m (down from £60m) to offload him10.

5.Tyrell Malacia’s Expected Departure

The Dutch left-back, who spent last season on loan at PSV, is also deemed surplus to requirements1.

Financial Implications & Club Strategy
United hope to generate £142m from these sales to reinvest in new signings[citation:Mirror].

The club is under pressure to comply with Premier League Profit & Sustainability Rules (PSR), making player sales crucial6.

What’s Next?
If no moves materialize, the five players will return to Carrington in late July but will only use club facilities for medical/rehabilitation purposes[citation:Mirror].

Rashford remains the most high-profile exit, with Barcelona a possible destination if financial terms align7.

United’s summer rebuild hinges on successfully offloading these players, with manager Rúben Amorim looking to reshape the squad ahead of the new season.
