Manchester United’s humiliating Europa League exit underlined the major summer clear-out facing Erik ten Hag.
As many as 12 senior players are set to be axed this summer, as boss Ten Hag gets ruthless with the second phase of his United rebuild. Hapless United skipper Harry Maguire, calamity keeper David De Gea and injury-prone striker Anthony Martial are all set to be offloaded this summer.
Ten Hag and United Football Director John Murtough had already decided which players needed to be moved on, before Thursday’s embarrassing 3-0 defeat at Sevilla.
