EPL: Manchester United Set To Sell Harry Maguire And Victor Lindelof

Manchester United are reportedly set to sell both Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof in the summer transfer window to make room for a new central defender.

Despite being regular starters for the team, neither player is considered to be a part of Erik ten Hag‘s strongest XI.

Instead, Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez have formed an impressive partnership in the middle of the defense during the 2022-23 campaign, while Luke Shaw has also been used as a center-back this season.

Maguire is reportedly attracting interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Newcastle United, while Inter Milan is currently being linked with a move for Lindelof.
