There’s still plenty of time for Erik ten Hag to fine-tune his Man United squad in the current transfer window, and with Premier League and Saudi interest in one of his players, there’s an expectation that at least one more Red Devils star will depart before September 1.
The Dutchman has continued to show a strong hand with regards to incoming and outgoing transfers, being clear on which players he wants to acquire and those he wants to offload.

Some players might not like that style of management but at least there are no grey areas and everyone knows where they stand.
Harry Maguire appears to have take the brave decision to stay with the Old Trafford outfit when ten Hag’s actions, rather than his words, would suggest that the England international would be better served by moving elsewhere.
