Rio Ferdinand has named the FOUR Manchester United players he'd get rid of this summer and revealed his stance on Mason Greenwood.
It could be a busy summer for Man United as INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe appear set to make wholesale changes to the squad ahead of the new season.
Several first-team players have been linked with a move away from Old Trafford, with one player already confirming his departure.
Ahead of what could be a hectic transfer window for Man United, Ferdinand has revealed the players he would sell.
The former Red Devils defender would let go of Harry Maguire, Christian Eriksen, Antony and Jadon Sancho, who spent last season on loan at Borussia Dortmund.

Casemiro has also been linked with a move away from Man United as Saudi Pro League sides circle ahead of tabling an offer.
But Ferdinand would hold onto the veteran midfielder for the 'experience' factor and said he'd hope the 32-year-old has a better campaign than last season.
He came under intense scrutiny for his performances and was brutally slammed for his showing in his side's 4-0 defeat at Crystal Palace.
The ex-England international also weighed in on Greenwood as reports claim Man United have made their final decision on the player following an end-of-season review.

"I would need a conversation with him to see where his head is at," he explained. "Find out the temperature around the club.
"I'll probably even have communication with the supporters' group. I think it's a real club decision rather than a one single decision."
Ferdinand didn't hesitate in keeping the likes of Lisandro Martinez, Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho, among others.

And he didn't commit on Marcus Rashford, saying he'd need to talk to him about the reason behind his form.
"Interesting one. I think I’d need to talk to Rashford and just find out where his head’s at and what he wants to do," he said.
"What’s the reason for the downturn in performances? If I get the right answer I keep him, if I don’t like what I’m hearing I’d let him go."
