Ruben Amorim has been told every is up for sale this summer - even Bruno Fernandes. The Red Devils boss will desperately hope to overhaul his struggling squad in the close season.
But with the club close to PSR limits, incoming transfers will need to be accompanied by sales. It has even been suggested that captain Fernandes could be on his way, with While has that he could lose one of his most important players, former United defender Mikael Silvestre says nothing can be ruled out. The Frenchman told 10bet: "You know the financial situation the club is in.
"Honestly, I think everybody is available for sale because they need to cash in on a few players. Despite having that status of being the best performer this season and the captain, I think if the right offer would come, United would open the door, you know?
"It's a matter of the financial situation. They're not able to definitively say a particular player is out of bounds. So even Bruno could be shown the door and allowed to make his choice, if the right offer came in."
Amorim has been steadfast in insisting that Fernandes is going nowhere this summer. Speaking ahead of Tuesday's 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest, the head coach said: "No, it's not going to happen.
"That [becoming more competitive] is the challenge. I want Bruno here because maybe in the lowest moments of our season he... We want to win the Premier League again, so we want the best players to continue with us."
Asked who could fill the void if Fernandes did leave, Silvestre added: "I'm not sure it was anticipated that Fernandes would have been playing in this role, but was injured, and Mason Mount has been out for a long period, so it's not clear how they would replace him.
"I don't think they would be in the position to spend big unless there's a massive transfer fee coming in. Right now, since you are rebuilding the team, I don't think the club should go again for established well-known players. Right now, I think they should look in-house."
However, at present, Mainoo looks more likely to move on this summer as the England midfielder continues to Talks have been ongoing for more than a year with no breakthrough.
