Manchester United 'prepared to sell six players ahead of transfer deadline'

Manchester United are reportedly keen to move as many as six players out of the club before this summer's transfer window comes to a close.

The Red Devils have already secured Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane this summer, while Kieran Trippier and Eduardo Camavinga are two players who continue to be linked with moves to Old Trafford.

Man United will need to balance the books in order to further boost their squad, though, and according to The Mirror, six first-team players have been effectively placed on the transfer list.

The report claims that Andreas Pereira, Daniel James, Phil Jones, Diogo Dalot, Axel Tuanzebe and Brandon Williams are all available this summer for the right price.

Pereira and Dalot are back at Old Trafford following loan spells, while Tuanzebe and Williams have been linked with short-term exits in order to gain valuable first-team minutes.

James was a regular for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side last term, making 26 appearances in all competitions, but Sancho's arrival has pushed him down the pecking order in terms of the forward positions.
