only working on incoming signings ahead of the summer transfer window but are also in talks to sell a number of current Old Trafford players.<\/p>\n<p>Much of the speculation around United ahead of the summer has been on their search for a new midfielder to replace Casemiro, who announced in January his intention to leave at the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p>The Red Devils were already planning to sign a new midfielder before the Brazilian\u2019s announcement, with former manager Ruben Amorim left disappointed by the club\u2019s failure to bring in a No. 6 last summer.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United have expressed interest in Elliot Anderson, Adam Wharton, Carlos Baleba and Alex Scott ahead of the summer, with Nottingham Forest\u2019s Anderson believed to be their top target.<\/p>\n<p>While United\u2019s priority is midfield reinforcements, they are also expected to sign a new forward to support Benjamin Sesko and are interested in signing a new full-back.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United\u2019s new permanent manager should have money to spend with the Premier League giants on course to qualify for the Champions League.<\/p>\n<p>They were just sixth at the time of Amorim\u2019s sacking in January but have climbed to third under caretaker boss Michael Carrick.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div

deals.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United hope to sell Marcus Rashford to Barcelona and have already agreed to offload Rasmus Hojlund, who looks set to earn a permanent move to Napoli.<\/p>\n<p>Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his colleagues will look to cash in on Andre Onana despite his desire to return to Old Trafford which Jadon Sancho will finally leave after a dismal spell in Manchester.<\/p>\n<figure

set to leave is goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, who has already agreed a deal to join European giants Besiktas, according to reports in Turkey.<\/p>\n<p>Bayindir, who joined United during Erik ten Hag\u2019s tenure, was the first-choice goalkeeper at times last season and in the early part of the current campaign.<\/p>\n<p>But the 27-year-old is firmly behind Senne Lammens in the pecking order and was in talks over a move to Besiktas during the January transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>While that deal fell through, Bayindir is set to return to Turkey this summer, with Besiktas preparing to announce the transfer, according to Fanatik.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United were reluctant to sanction Bayindir\u2019s exit midway through the season but it is claimed they are ready to agree a deal ahead of the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>Bayindir looked set to feature regularly for United this season but \u00a318m summer signing Lammens has emerged as the No. 1 at Old Trafford, evening impressing legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.<\/p>\n<p>As a result Bayindir has not featured for Champions League-chasing Manchester United since September.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>For more stories like
