Manchester United are said to have made all but four players available for sale in the summer transfer window in order to raise funds and help Ruben Amorim overhaul his team.
Following the club's 4-3 defeat against Brentford in the Premier League on Sunday, more questions were raised about the future of several players in the Red Devils' squad.
Forward Alejandro Garnacho scored a goal and registered an assist against Brentford but he has consistently been linked with a move away from the club, while the likes of Kobbie Mainoo and Luke Shaw have also come under scrutiny.
It would not be surprising if Amorim wanted to make numerous changes to his starting XI in the summer, but the club's poor financial health means he will likely only be given appropriate funds if sales are made.
The Daily Star claim that the Red Devils hierarchy will consider offers for every member of the team other than Harry Maguire, Amad Diallo, Patrick Dorgu and Bruno Fernandes.

How many players do United need?
Having scored just 42 goals in the Premier League this season - the sixth worst offensive record in the top flight - Amorim must prioritise making additions in attack.
Wolverhampton Wanderers' Matheus Cunha has often been linked with a move to Old Trafford, and his dribbling ability would make him a strong stylistic fit alongside Fernandes in the two attacking roles behind the team's striker.
Centre-forward Rasmus Hojlund has only found the back of the net four times in the league this term, and the club will undoubtedly need to sign a new starting number nine.
Considering midfielder Casemiro is ageing and has had his place in the team questioned, signing a player comfortable on the ball to play in the middle of the pitch would be sensible.
Amorim has utilised a back three at United and considering Maguire is in his thirties, Lisandro Martinez has been plagued by injuries and that Leny Yoro is only 19, adding an experienced defender in their mid-twenties should be seen as crucial to the development of the squad.
It should also be noted that goalkeeper Andre Onana has made several errors leading to goal, and it is difficult to see United experiencing a resurgence without a new shot-stopper.
