MANCHESTER UNITED will reportedly listen to serious transfer offers for their ENTIRE squad – including a trio who were untouchable under former boss Erik ten Hag.
The Red Devils have struggled to make progress since the minority takeover of Sir Jim Ratcliffe a year ago.
United have made a dismal start to the current term under Ten Hag, despite the Dutchman being backed with £200 million in summer signings.
And replacement Ruben Amorim also has difficulty getting the club's players in the right direction.
Many don't fit into his high-intensity 3-4-3 system.
And the Guardian claims Ratcliffe is willing to back the Portuguese gaffer by making every senior star available for sale.
While United are not actively looking to offload any players, offers for any of them will now be considered.
It means that players like Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes can be sold for the right price.
While summer signings such as Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt and Manuel Ugarte could be shown the door after just six months.
It is even suggested that Ten Hag's untouchable trio of Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo could leave if suitable bids come in.

The latter is seen as a key target for United's rivals Chelsea, who are already planning to sign loanee Jadon Sancho for a reduced fee of £20 million this summer.
United has been hit hard by Financial Fair Play restrictions after years of heavy spending.
Waiving some major revenue losses will help balance the books somewhat, while allowing Amorim to bring in players better suited to his tactics.
Sales from academy graduates such as Mainoo, Garnacho and Marcus Rashford would also count as 100 percent profit – crucial for compliance with profit and sustainability rules.
Rashford is seen as one of the most likely players this month, although he could only be loaned out until the summer.
AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund have both shown serious interest in signing the Wantaway striker.
Fellow striker Joshua Zirkzee is a target for Juventus, while midfielder Casemiro continues to be monitored by teams in Saudi Arabia.
