Man United are already planning for the January transfer window as Ruben Amorim evaluates his squad.
The Red Devils host West Ham on Thursday, aiming to continue their unbeaten run.
United bounced back from a disappointing home loss to 10-man Everton with a 2-1 victory at Crystal Palace.
Four players could be on the move
Reports indicate that United are willing to listen to offers for Kobbie Mainoo, Joshua Zirkzee, Manuel Ugarte, and Tyrell Malacia in January.

The club needs to generate funds for potential midfield targets, though letting players leave early could leave Amorim’s squad stretched during the Africa Cup of Nations.
All four have struggled for minutes this season. Zirkzee has started due to injuries, while Ugarte has featured only three times. Malacia has yet to make an appearance, and Mainoo’s only start came in a cup defeat to Grimsby.
Bryan Mbeumo boost
United will benefit from a FIFA ruling allowing Bryan Mbeumo, Amad, and Noussair Mazraoui to stay with the club until December 15, longer than expected before AFCON.
The trio will now be available for the Wolves match on December 8, though it is unclear if this applies to the Bournemouth game on December 15, reports Mirror.
Mbeumo represents Cameroon, Amad plays for Ivory Coast, and Mazraoui will compete for Morocco in the tournament running until January 18.
This extension gives Amorim a short-term boost as he balances squad depth and January plans.
