Summary Man Utd could make £320m from player sales to facilitate new arrivals after a disappointing season. Ruben Amorim is preparing for his first full season in charge at Old Trafford and has already released three Red Devils players. Grok predicts nine stars could be sold by INEOS to generate funds.
The 2025 summer transfer window looks set to be a crucial one for Manchester United ahead of Ruben Amorim’s first full season in charge at Old Trafford.
After a woeful 2024/25 campaign which resulted in the Red Devils’ worst ever Premier League finish in 15th with just 42 points, INEOS could have a clear out in the market.
Jonny Evans, Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof were all released, however, United still have plenty of players returning from loan and others who are surplus to requirements.

So, Grok, the AI tool on X, has predicted that Man Utd could make £320m on player sales this summer to help fund numerous arrivals.
AI predicts 9 players Manchester United will sell this summer 1 Marcus Rashford (£50m)
Starting the list is Marcus Rashford, who doesn’t look likely to make his loan move to Aston Villa permanent this summer.
The Englishman impressed under Unai Emery, which may help Man Utd in their attempts to move the Red Devils academy graduate on for good.

A deal would help Man Utd in their PSR position as he would be pure profit, and Grok thinks he could leave for £50m.
2 Alejandro Garnacho (£60m)
Another player to help with PSR profit would be Alejandro Garnacho, who has been told he is free to find a new club this summer.
The Argentine may bring in up to £60m as his Old Trafford deal still has three years remaining.
Grok thinks Barcelona and Real Madrid could get involved in the race to sign Garnacho, alongside other Premier League sides including Chelsea.
3 Rasmus Hojlund (£50m)
Centre-forward Rasmus Hojlund has so far failed to live up to the pressure of being Man Utd’s first choice striker after arriving back in 2023.
Signed from Atalanta, Hojlund is being linked with a return to Serie A with clubs like Inter Milan and Napoli thought to be interested in his services.
Although Man Utd would be making a loss, Grok thinks they would accept an offer in the region of £50m for the Denmark striker.
4 Jadon Sancho (£35m)
With Chelsea not exercising their option to make Jadon Sancho’s move permanent, the Red Devils could be looking to find a suitor for the Englishman before the deadline.
Another big-money signing who has struggled at Old Trafford, Sancho could leave for under half of the £73m United paid for him in 2021. The chances of a permanent Sancho exit according to Grok are ‘high’.
5 Antony (£30m)
Continuing the trend with Man Utd wingers who look surplus to requirements, Antony could also be on the way out on a permanent basis following his loan spell with Real Betis.
After costing over £80m and struggling in England, Antony showcased his talent in La Liga last season, which may lead to the Red Devils accepting a loss.
Grok says the chances of a permanent departure are high and name checks Ajax, PSV, or Turkish clubs like Galatasaray as potential buyers for £30m.
6 Casemiro (£20m)
Should Man Utd receive £20m for Casemiro, it could represent a great piece of business considering he only has 12 months remaining on his Old Trafford deal.
Ruthlessly, Grok have said ‘Casemiro’s declining mobility and high wages (£350,000-a-week) make him a candidate for departure’, adding that a move to the Saudi Pro League, MLS, or a return to Brazil could be on the cards.
7 Andre Onana (£40m)
After another error-filled season at Old Trafford, Man Utd could do well to recoup £40m of the £43.8m they paid for Andre Onana back in 2023. However, Grok thinks the Red Devils could receive that much for the Cameroon ‘keeper.
Man Utd eye £34m Onana replacement from the same place they overpaid for Hojlund
Man Utd and INEOS have now identified a new target to replace Andre Onana in goal.
ByBrett WorthingtonJun 16, 2025
It is stated that ‘Onana’s shot-stopping ability and distribution suit Amorim’s system, but mistakes have drawn scrutiny’, leading to a potential exit to Inter Milan, AC Milan or a move to Saudi Arabia.
8 Luke Shaw (£20m)
AI have said that ‘Luke Shaw’s injury-prone record and competition from new signings like Patrick Dorgu make him expendable’, and it’s hard to argue against that as Amorim looks to build for the future.

Under contract until 2027, Shaw will turn 30 years of age this summer, so now could be the time to end his 11-year stay at Old Trafford, and bringing in £20m could be viewed as a success considering he cost around £30m from Southampton.
9 Tyrell Malacia (£15m)
Finishing the list is another left-back in Tyrell Malacia, who played just 99 minutes of Premier League football before being loaned to PSV in 24/25.
The Dutchman cost Man Utd £15m in 2022, and Grok says INEOS would try to break even with a sale, citing PSV and Feyenoord as potential buyers.
