Paul Scholes has delivered a brutal assessment of Manchester United FC’s squad by naming eight players he believes should be sold this summer.
The former United midfielder did not hold back as he reviewed the current squad and questioned whether several players are truly good enough to help the club challenge for the biggest trophies again.
Among the players Scholes would reportedly move on are Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte, Joshua Zirkzee, Noussair Mazraoui and Patrick Dorgu.
Scholes made it clear that sentiment should not stand in the way of progress if United are serious about rebuilding properly.
His comments underline the growing belief that the club still needs major surgery across multiple areas of the squad, reports Daily Mail.
