Manchester United reportedly expect the sale of midfielder Fred to ‘advance’ this week. Erik ten Hag was keen to reduce the size of his squad this summer in order to fund transfers but with limited success. David de Gea and Alex Telles have been the only truly notable exits at Old Trafford, despite United putting several players in the shop window prior to the transfer window opening. The Red Devils are also desperate to offload Fred and replace him with a world-class option in midfield. According to Fabrizio Romano, the former Shakhtar Donetsk star is ‘guaranteed’ to leave the club this summer and talks are expected to accelerate over the next seven days.
