sport news Man United need a summer shake-up to refresh a squad that is miles off ... trends now

Manchester United's penalty shootout FA Cup semi-final win over Coventry City brought more questions than answers - both in terms of Erik ten Hag and his players. 

This has been a season riddled by mistakes on and off the pitch for United and with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his Ineos team now assuming control of football operations, a summer shake-up feels inevitable.  

United are looking to raise £100million through player sales and for some shown the door that will mean accepting a sizeable loss on their initial transfer outlay.

Ratcliffe and the new football operations team know it's not a quick fix and while everyone they don't want cannot be moved on in one window, if United are to return to contending for the biggest prizes, too many in this squad won't cut it. 

Mail Sport runs through Manchester United's squad to work out who stays and who goes... 

Andre Onana - STAY

Comfortably been one of United's best players in the back end of this season. He looks to have finally settled and put a nightmare start to life in Manchester behind him. He's going absolutely nowhere after joining last summer.

Altay Bayindir - STAY

Under contract until 2027, with the option of a further year, Bayindir's future is very low down the priority list this summer. 

He is naturally frustrated at his lack of opportunities, playing just once against Newport County in the FA Cup, and there is bound to be interest from Turkey this summer.

Insiders routinely talk up how talented he is and United should rebuff any approaches.

Tom Heaton - GO

The 38-year-old has been a valuable asset to have in the dressing room and it was a boost internally when he elected to extend for another year last summer. But now feels like the time to separate as United should look to promote a young goalkeeper into the first team group.

Victor Lindelof - GO

It is no secret in agent circles that United are in the market for two young centre backs this summer and that means departures are needed.

Lindelof is out of contract in 2025 and rather than see him leave for nothing, United should be seeking a buyer to help boost the coffers as they eye £100m in total player sales this summer.

Harry Maguire - STAY

Another of those entering the final 12 months of his contract, Maguire perhaps holds more valuable for a sale than Lindelof.

But he's been dependable for Ten Hag this season and has shown he's good enough to stick around.   

Deserves an immense amount of credit for how he's turned his Man United career around when all hope looked lost.

Lisandro Martinez - STAY

The Argentine centre back has been blighted by injuries this season - but there is no doubt he's the most talented of his position at the club when fit. Under contract until 2027, he's staying put.

Tyrell Malacia - STAY

Hasn't played all season with fans totally perplexed at his extended absence. United will look for one new full-back this summer and they have a decision to make if that's on the left or right. Will likely get another shot to prove himself whether Ten Hag is the manager or not.

Raphael Varane - GO

There have been so many games this season where Varane has been United's stand-out defender and worth a new deal. But the 30-year-old is on. £350,000-a-week and Ineos are keen to move away from the older big earners. Could well have played his final game for United now he's out injured.

Diogo Dalot - STAY

Has really taken a step forward this season and continues to show green shoots of development. His United career looked to have stalled when he was loaned out to AC Milan but he's comfortably first choice right back now.

Luke Shaw - STAY

When fit he's Man United and England's best left back option, but reliability is an issue when it comes to Shaw.

Nonetheless, United have far bigger problems to solve this summer than the future of Luke Shaw. Should be in no jeopardy of being moved on.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka - GO

Entering the final 12 months of his contract this summer, there is an argument to be made that United are better served cashing in this time round.

Wan-Bissaka has had to make do in an unorthodox left back role given the form of Dalot and he endured a miserable FA Cup final there. Could be used as a potential makeweight with Crystal Palace if United want to pursue Michael Olise.

Brandon Williams - GO

Out of contract in the summer, letting Williams go is one of the easiest moves of the window.

Sent on a season-long loan to Ipswich Town, Williams hasn't featured for them since December and has instead been mired by a legal case.

Williams, who has 51 appearances in United's first team, will stand trial for dangerous driving next year after he denied charges levelled against him last week.

Jonny Evans - GO

The Northern Irishman arrived in the summer in what felt a desperate move for defensive reinforcements, but he's proven a useful asset on and off the pitch. Nonetheless, the 36-year-old is out of contract in the summer and an extension appears unlikely with a squad shake-up planned.

Alvaro Fernandez - GO

The 21-year-old started the season on loan in Spain with Granada before that was cut short and he was shipped off to Benfica on loan in January.

The Portuguese side have a €6million (£5.2m) option to buy in the summer but given his up-and-down loan spell, where he has not been a consistent starter, it remains up in the air.

Speaking recently, Benfica boss Roger Schmidt recently suggested no decision has yet been made.

'The situation is clear, he is on loan and there is the option of him staying at Benfica,' he said. 'It's an open process. He hasn't had much playing time, because Aursnes has played well, but he is a talented player and there is an option for him to stay.'

If Shaw and Malacia both remain, his route to the first team at Old Trafford seems a no-go.

Willy Kambwala - STAY

One of the bright spots to emerge through the academy this season, Kambwala won't be going anywhere this summer. 

Yes, he struggled down at Bournemouth, but he impressed against Liverpool and is still raw. Club will be looking into an extension as he enters the final 12 months of his contract.

Sofyan Amrabat - GO
