Manchester United face paying players millions to leave the club this summer

Manchester United face the prospect of paying players millions to leave the club this summer, according to The Telegraph.

The Red Devils aim to boost their spending power by offloading players who are no longer wanted at Old Trafford, but buying clubs are ready to exploit their need to sell.

United are open to offers for Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Antony, but the trio have contracts until 2028, which they are expected to subsidise even if they leave to join another club.

Barcelona have reportedly made Rashford their number one target after they failed to land Liverpool’s Luis Diaz and Nico Williams signed a new deal at Athletic Club.

The England international has already expressed his desire to play for the Spanish giants.

However, agreeing a transfer fee and wages are big issues in the way of a deal for Barcelona.

Garnacho had a public falling out with manager Ruben Amorim and also looks to be on his way out of Manchester.

Antony spent the second-half of the 2024-25 season at Real Betis, where he impressed with nine goals in 26 games.

Betis are keen to sign him permanently this summer, but the financial costs for a deal could be too much for them.
