Manchester United keen on offloading 2 senior players this summer - Reports

Manchester United are reportedly looking to sell Eric Bailly and Alex Telles this summer.

Manchester Evening News reports that the Red Devils have listed Bailly and Telles as must-sell players. The defensive duo have just one year remaining in their contracts and spent the last season out on loan.

Bailly, 29, was on loan at Ligue 1 side Marseille where injury issues once again took hold. The Ivorian defender made 23 appearances across competitions, helping his side keep six clean sheets.

Igor Tudor's side did possess an obligation to buy clause in Bailly's loan deal. However, the requirements for that were not met, and he's now heading back to Old Trafford.

That might not be for long, though, as Turkish giants Fenerbahce and La Liga side Celta Vigo are reportedly interested. He may be available for just £2 million. Manchester United are seemingly prepared to take a massive hit on the £30 million they paid Villarreal for him in 2016.

Meanwhile, Telles, 30, spent the 2022-23 season on loan at Sevilla and enjoyed a much more prominent role with Los Nervionenses. The Brazilian left-back featured 38 times across competitions, providing three assists.

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag signed Tyrell Malacia last summer, and the Dutch left-back has provided astute competition for Luke Shaw. That leaves Telles' chances of breaking into the Red Devils' side in jeopardy.

Telles arrived at Old Trafford in 2020 from Primeira Liga giants Porto for £15.4 million. However, he struggled to make an impact for United and was soon sent out on loan.

Porto fear Manchester United have turned their attention from Diogo Costa to Inter Milan's Andre Onana

The Red Devils may have moved on from the Porto goalkeeper.

Manchester United are on the lookout for a new goalkeeper this summer amid uncertainty over David de Gea's future. The Spanish shot-stopper's contract at Old Trafford expires at the end of the month.

It seems that Ten Hag is intent on signing a new goalkeeper irrespective of whether De Gea stays or remains at the club. They're being linked with Porto's Diogo Costa and Inter Milan's Andre Onana.

Portuguese outlet Record reports that Porto are concerned that the Red Devils have decided to pursue Onana rather than Costa. Ten Hag knows the Inter shot-stopper well from his time coaching him at former club Ajax in the Eredivisie.

Reports claim that Manchester United have informed Onana's agent that they will be bidding for him shortly. The Cameroonian was in fine form in the 2022-23 season, keeping 19 clean sheets in 41 games across competitions.

However, Costa was equally as impressive at the Estadio do Dragao, keeping 20 clean sheets in 41 games across competitions.
