Erik ten Hag brutally axes five Man Utd stars from dressing room including Phil Jones

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has reportedly axed Phil Jones and four other players from the club's first-team dressing room in order to accommodate new signings.

Although United endured a slow start to the transfer window, Dutchman Ten Hag was backed with significant funds in a bid to overhaul a squad that slumped to United's worst-ever finish in the Premier League last term.

Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen, Lisandro Martinez, Casemiro, Antony and Martin Dubravka have all arrived at Old Trafford over the summer for a combined sum of around £220million - the largest amount Manchester United have ever spent in a single transfer window.
