Harry Maguire, a defender for Manchester United, may look to leave the organization this summer if he is worried about losing his spot in the England team.
The former Leicester City player is no longer first choice at Old Trafford, and it's possible that, unless he manages to change things, he'll soon fall further down Gareth Southgate's priority list for the Three Lions.
Although he might have to accept a pay cut if he decides to leave United, Maguire is reportedly going to have suitors this summer.
The Red Devils may find it advantageous to cash in on Maguire at this point because they would benefit from raising money to improve other areas of their team.
The 30-year-old doesn't seem to match Erik ten Hag's playing style particularly well, but he could be a good fit for other Premier League clubs a little lower down the Premier League table.
It would be fascinating to see who looks at Maguire this summer after The Mail names West Ham as one among the organizations that expressed interest in him back in January.
According to rumors, Erik ten Hag is anxious to sign a new striker during the summer transfer window, and the club has created a shortlist of five candidates.
Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United at the end of November after a contentious interview with Piers Morgan, and the Red Devils have yet to find a permanent replacement.
Wout Weghorst, a Dutch international, joined Manchester United on loan from Burnley during the January transfer window, although Ten Hag is unlikely to have any long-term intentions for the player.
And according to The Sun, the manager of Manchester United has instructed the club's leadership to "get me a striker," with England and Tottenham striker Harry Kane as his top target.
The Red Devils have created a "five-man shortlist" of other strikers they could sign, with the goal of pairing Harry Kane and Marcus Rashford together in the upcoming season.
Along with Kane, Victor Osimhen of Napoli, Jonathan David of Lille, Rasmus Hojland of Atalanta, Tammy Abraham of former Chelsea, and Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus are all thought to be on United's radar.
Ten Hag commented on the club's pursuit of a new striker in the summer following their 2-2 draw with Tottenham.
“Everyone knows and it is not a secret that long-term and over a whole season we had a shortage of No9s.
“We had the drop out of [Cristiano] Ronaldo, then Anthony Martial was often not available, Jadon Sancho often not available, then you have a shortage of front line players.
“We have players who can play the role but definitely we need some offensive players who are impact and quality players.”
Man United's summer transfer plans
As fans sang Harry Kane's name during the draw with Tottenham, Erik ten Hag insists it is no secret that Manchester United needs to sign a goalscorer this summer.
United has been mentioned as a potential destination for the England captain as he has been linked with a transfer away from a Spurs team that appears to be in chaos behind the scenes.
In order to draw 2-2 with Ten Hag's team on Thursday, Kane's team overcame a two-goal deficit by dropping deep to influence the game from midfield and setting up Son Heung-min's late equalizer with a brilliant low cross.
Jadon Sancho, who was positioned on the left of an advanced midfield three, and Marcus Rashford, who was positioned as the number nine, scored goals for United in the first half to give them a commanding lead.
"Harry Kane, we'll see you in June," the visiting fans chanted during Tottenham's first game following their surrender to a 6-1 loss to Newcastle that all but ended their hopes of making the Champions League, and Ten Hag later acknowledged that attacking reinforcements are required at Old Trafford.
