Sales continue to be just as important as signings for Manchester United. The Red Devils' hotly-anticipated rebuild this summer has so far only seen one incoming, with Matheus Cunha arriving in a £62.5million transfer deal from Wolves on June 1.

United will pay the Brazilian's eye-watering release clause in three instalments over two years, as Sir Jim Ratcliffe attempts to keep the purse strings tight at Old Trafford. And that's exactly why they're yet to cough up the cash to sign top target Bryan Mbeumo.

‌

With Brentford demanding at least £60m, the Red Devils are risking missing out on the winger, who's got interest from clubs with more money to spend. But that could all change with departures.

‌

United are working on a number of high-profile sales, with Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho the headliners. Rashford, 27, has found himself searching for a new club after falling out of favour under Ruben Amorim just weeks into the Portuguese's reign.

The England international issued a come-get-me plea to Barcelona last week, revealing that he 'hoped' to play alongside Barca wonderkid Lamine Yamal. United want £40m for Rashford, who was loaned out to Aston Villa for the second half of last season.

Garnacho, meanwhile, stayed put, despite links of a £75m move to Napoli in January. Speculation over his future didn't disappear, though, in fact it ramped up after United's Europa League final defeat.

The 20-year-old's brother accused Amorim of throwing Garnacho under the bus, having been benched last month's 1-0 dismal loss to Tottenham in Bilbao. It emerged shortly after that Amorim had ruthlessly told Garnacho to find a new club, with Napoli, Juventus, AC Milan and Atletico Madrid - his former club - all reportedly interested.

Garnacho angered United supporters via social media over the weekend, posing in a 'Rashford 9' Villa shirt while on holiday. But those two aren't the only forwards on the chopping block.

Antony was loaned to Real Betis in January, a move which has revitalised his career. The £86m flop scored nine goals and registered five assists, leading Betis to want to keep him permanently.

However, the La Liga side are reluctant to pay United's reported £43m asking price which leaves Antony in limbo. Similarly, no buyer has been found for Jadon Sancho.

‌

The ex-Borussia Dortmund star struggled on loan at Chelsea, who've even paid the Red Devils £5m NOT to sign him permanently. Dortmund have been keeping tabs on Sancho, who's yet to work with Amorim, and he's also been tipped for a move to Saudi Arabia.

Tyrell Malacia was also sent out on loan midway through the season, although Dutch giants PSV Eindhoven haven't taken up the option to sign him permanently. The left-back is expected to have other suitors, however, as Benfica were close to signing him in January, only for the move to break down.

United would be willing to listen to offers for every member of their squad, with some valued much more by Amorim than others. Players such as Leny Yoro, Bruno Fernandes and Amad are considered prized possessions while they're reluctant to sell a striker, likely Rasmus Hojlund, before bringing in a replacement, as the Red Devils continue to be linked with Viktor Gyokeres.
