Manchester United to sell Rafael in the summer?

Manchester United are reportedly willing to listen to offers for full-back Rafael.

The 24-year-old has appeared in just nine games this season, and has been left out of United's last two match-day squads against Newcastle United and Sunderland in the Premier League.

The Daily Mail suggests that Rafael has failed to impress new coach Louis van Gaal, who has been willing to play other players in the right-back position, including youngster Paddy McNair.

The Brazilian will have 12 months left on his current United deal come the end of this summer, with the player thought to be attracting interest from clubs in his homeland.
