Manchester United: The Devils transfer summer plan – Who’s leaving and staying

Midfielders

Paul Pogba: Stay

Paul Pogba has not had a fantastic career at Manchester United. He has been a shell of his old self-compared to what he was at Juventus. This is true even though he recently compared himself to Messi. Still, this past season we have seen flashes of the real Pogba in games where he has been placed correctly.

Mourinho will likely keep him on board since Pogba plays his kind of football- physical and brash. Also, Mourinho doesn’t seem to have sold any expensive players lately. If he did transfer Pogba, it would go against all common sense.

Marouane Fellaini: Leave

This is almost set in stone. If Fellaini left United it would be good for all involved. Fellaini doesn’t get much playing time and he could certainly be a starter in other teams. Some of the clubs being talked about are Arsenal, PSG, and AC Milan.

Alexis Sanchez: Stay

As with Pogba, Mourinho will certainly give Sanchez plenty of time to adapt to his new surroundings. This is the case even though he had a lukewarm start for United by scoring just two goals for the team. His assist numbers were much more promising at five. Chile’s best player will be a great help behind United’s front three in the 2018/2019 season.
