Manchester United are not only working on incoming signings ahead of the summer transfer window but are also in talks to sell a number of current Old Trafford players.

Much of the speculation around United ahead of the summer has been on their search for a new midfielder to replace Casemiro , who announced in January his intention to leave at the end of the season.

The Red Devils were already planning to sign a new midfielder before the Brazilian’s announcement, with former manager Ruben Amorim left disappointed by the club’s failure to bring in a No. 6 last summer.

Manchester United have expressed interest in Elliot Anderson , Adam Wharton , Carlos Baleba and Alex Scott ahead of the summer, with Nottingham Forest’s Anderson believed to be their top target.

While United’s priority is midfield reinforcements, they are also expected to sign a new forward to support Benjamin Sesko and are interested in signing a new full-back.

Manchester United’s new permanent manager should have money to spend with the Premier League giants on course to qualify for the Champions League.

They were just sixth at the time of Amorim’s sacking in January but have climbed to third under caretaker boss Michael Carrick.

Old Trafford bosses are already busy making plans for the summer and are just as preoccupied working on outgoings as incoming deals.

Manchester United hope to sell Marcus Rashford to Barcelona and have already agreed to offload Rasmus Hojlund, who looks set to earn a permanent move to Napoli.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his colleagues will look to cash in on Andre Onana despite his desire to return to Old Trafford which Jadon Sancho will finally leave after a dismal spell in Manchester.

Another player set to leave is goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, who has already agreed a deal to join European giants Besiktas, according to reports in Turkey.

Bayindir, who joined United during Erik ten Hag’s tenure, was the first-choice goalkeeper at times last season and in the early part of the current campaign.

But the 27-year-old is firmly behind Senne Lammens in the pecking order and was in talks over a move to Besiktas during the January transfer window.

While that deal fell through, Bayindir is set to return to Turkey this summer, with Besiktas preparing to announce the transfer, according to Fanatik .

Manchester United were reluctant to sanction Bayindir’s exit midway through the season but it is claimed they are ready to agree a deal ahead of the summer transfer window.

Bayindir looked set to feature regularly for United this season but £18m summer signing Lammens has emerged as the No. 1 at Old Trafford, evening impressing legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

As a result Bayindir has not featured for Champions League-chasing Manchester United since September.
