Key Stars Request to Leave Manchester United Ahead of New Season

Five Manchester United players want to leave the club as it prepares for the 2025-26 season under manager Ruben Amorim. The team’s preseason start has been delayed, allowing more time to address the situation.

FIVE PLAYERS SEEK EXIT

Marcus Rashford, Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia, and Jadon Sancho desire to depart from Manchester United. The club’s preseason delay provides players, staff, and executives with the opportunity to find the best solutions. No official deals have been completed for these players yet. Reports indicate that Manchester United want to sell Jadon Sancho as his contract expires soon.

IMPACT ON TEAM AND PERFORMANCE

If these players leave, it will affect Manchester United significantly. Rashford is a homegrown star and one of the team’s main attackers. Garnacho and Antony are young, talented attackers who have played many games this season, while Sancho has struggled for form and minutes but remains a big name. Malacia, a left-back, has been injured for most of the last year. The team has spent almost £70 million this summer on new players without making money from player sales. Manchester United finished fifteenth in the Premier League for the 2024-25 season, which adds pressure to the current roster situation.

WHAT COMES NEXT FOR MANCHESTER UNITED?

Manchester United’s preseason now starts later in July to manage the situation. The team must decide whether to keep or sell these players before the transfer window closes on 1 September. New signings Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon will be key for the coming season. Although the club’s next match is unconfirmed, they arranged for Diego León to join from Cerro Porteño in the January transfer window, which could impact their strategy moving forward.
