Every Man Utd star set to leave club in summer revealed with Erik ten Hag set to free up £760,000 per WEEK in wages
RAPHAEL VARANE is set to be followed out of the exit door at Old Trafford by several other Manchester United stars.
The defender announced he will leave at the end of the season after three years at the club.
Varane is out of contract next month and will become a free agent, a fate awaiting three of his team-mates.
Several United players have been linked with moves away with captain Bruno Fernandes considering a transfer.
Casemiro, Antony and Marcus Rashford all face uncertain futures too, but here are five stars who are set to depart the club this summer.
Raphael Varane
Varane, 31, arrived with much fanfare ahead of a season where United were expected to mount a title challenge under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The four-time Champions League winner joined alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho in 2021, but like that duo he failed to live up to expectation.
Injuries have been a big issue for Varane throughout his United spell, limiting the Frenchman to just 21 Prem appearances this campaign.
United will be glad to free up his £340,000 a week wages.
Anthony Martial
Another player who has been ravaged by injuries, the writing has been on the wall for Martial for some time.

SunSport's verdict on Man Utd flops
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos have a busy summer ahead to get Man Utd's squad in order for next season. Below SunSport gives it verdict on how they should deal with the Red Devils flops this summer.
Andre Onana – STAY: After a dodgy start at Old Trafford Onana has proven to be one of the more reliable members of the squad this season despite being peppered with shots constantly.
Altay Bayindir – GO: Reports in February suggested Bayindir was unhappy with his bit part role at Man Utd amid interest from Turkish giants Galatasaray. If profit can be made on a sale then it should be done.
Tom Heaton – STAY: Veteran goalkeeper Heaton, 38, is a reliable back-up and is on a relatively small wage at the club. So long as he is happy it makes sense to keep him.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka – GO: Wan-Bissaka, 26, has never managed to make the right-back position his own. With his contract up in 2025 it makes sense to cash in now.
Diogo Dalot – STAY: Dalot, 26, has been one of Man Utd’s most consistent performers this season.
Raphael Varane – GO: If it wasn’t for his injury record there would be a strong shout to keep Varane, but costs need to be cut to allow the squad to be freshened up.
Harry Maguire – GO: Maguire has showed he has the right character to be at Man Utd but overall ability and desired profile are another matter, with Maguire too slow to play in a high line defence.
Lisandro Martinez – STAY: Martinez, 26, is second to none in terms of build up play. He needs a long-term defensive partner on the right side and to cut out the injuries which have plagued him this season.
Jonny Evans – GO: Veteran campaigner Evans could easily be on the stay list if he was only going to be a bit part player. But he has shown his advanced years at times this season.
Victor Lindelof – GO: Lindelof, 29, has been reliable if not unremarkable in his Man Utd career. He has one year left on his contract so should be moved on if a decent transfer fee can be got for him.
Willy Kambwala – STAY: He should be given the opportunity to mature for a few years behind a senior CB pairing before stepping into the first team as a starter or being moved on.
Luke Shaw – GO: One of the Premier League’s best left-backs when fit, Shaw has been a good servant when available. But alas that has been his Achilles heel once again this season.
Tyrell Malacia – STAY: Malacia, 24, was decent enough to earn some merit in his first season at Man Utd before injury ended his season and inadvertently led to his second season being a write off.
Sofyan Amrabat – GO: Amrabat, 27, looked like a world beater at the Qatar World Cup with Morocco. But he’s had an underwhelming season in England and his loan spell will almost certainly not be made permanent.
Casemiro – GO: An alarming physical decline has seen him turn from key star to burden. If a club is willing to buy the 32-year-old – who has two more years on his contract – then United should snatch their hand off.
Christian Eriksen – GO: Eriksen proved a useful asset and Ineos should look to bring in another player with similar traits, but frankly his legs have looked gone towards the end of this season.
Kobbie Mainoo – STAY: The first of the so-called untouchables, Mainoo has been a rare glimmer of hope in the Red Devils midfield this season.
Mason Mount – STAY: Mount can be given the benefit of the doubt until summer 2025 at least after a debut season riddled with injury.
Scott McTominay – STAY: McTominay, 27, has proven himself to be a brilliant plan B off the bench this season, and that is exactly why Ineos should look to keep him.
Bruno Fernandes – STAY: Man Utd’s best player since his arrival just over four years ago, Fernandes, 29, remains second-to-none when it comes to creating chances while his tenacity boosts those around him.
Antony – GO: There’s a case to argue that Antony may be the worst pound-for-pound signing in Premier League history. Despite some memorable moments he simply isn’t Man Utd quality.
Anthony Martial – GO: Ultimately Martial needs to be let go when his deal runs out this summer after an appalling injury record of late.
Marcus Rashford – STAY: As easy as it would be to say Rashford should leave the club this summer, it is difficult to look at the market and find many available players capable of scoring 30 goals a season.
Alejandro Garnacho – STAY: Another third of the untouchables trio, Garnacho has made the right-wing his own since coming into it. He’s a raw talent but has shown he has the quality to improve.
Rasmus Hojlund – STAY: A slow burner in his first Man Utd season, the 21-year-old has often been starved of supply which has led to him being unable to get the goals his movement and unselfish play often merits.
Amad Diallo – STAY: In the fleeting moments he has been on the pitch for Man Utd this season, Diallo has looked dangerous and exciting. He should be given a chance to flourish with some proper chances in the first team across a whole season.
He enjoyed a mini renaissance under Erik ten Hag last season with nine goals in 17 stars, but he just did not play enough.
Martial, 28, is yet another star who has failed to fulfil expectations with 90 goals in 317 games after arriving for £45million on a salary of £250,000-a-week.
Sofyan Amrabat
Martial’s time at Old Trafford may not have worked out as planned, but he has been far from the disaster Amrabat has.
The only silver lining for United is they failed to sign the midfielder on a permanent basis as originally planned, so his loan from Fiorentina will end next month, freeing up £65,000-a-week.
He has looked cumbersome on the ball and off the pace off it – a far cry from the Amrabat who starred for Morrocco as they reached the 2022 World Cup semi-final.
A return of just 19 league appearances shows how poor the 27-year-old has been – this is one many United fans will be happy to see the back of.
Christian Eriksen
United fought off plenty of competition for Eriksen’s signature two years ago, but the 32-year-old has looked past his best for the Red Devils.
Ten Hag wanted a playmaker after missing out on Frenkie de Jong but Eriksen failed to tick the boxes needed and his impending exit has looked likely for some time, particularly as he reportedly earns £150,000-a-week.
Tom Heaton
The former England goalkeeper initially arrived believing he would play second fiddle to Dean Henderson.
David de Gea ended up staying which shoehorned him into third choice, but he has played a big role off the pitch as one of the most influential leaders in the squad.
He was wanted by Luton last summer so still might stick around in the Premier League at the age of 38.
