No matter what happens between now and the end of the season one thing is guaranteed for the summer, Jose Mourinho and Ed Woodward are going to be busy, starting with one player returning to his former club.

Right now Manchester United really have no idea if they'll be returning to the Champions League next season or missing out on the third time in four years since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement.

The Red Devils seem unable to win at home right now, meaning their chances of finishing in the top four are ever diminishing. They could of course still qualify by winning the Europa League.

Whatever happens before May 21st however, or 24th if they reach the final in Europe, there will be a lot of comings and goings from Old Trafford in the summer.

According to the Sun that could all kick off with Daley Blind heading for a move back to the Netherlands as Ajax eye up a move for their former player.

Blind spent most of his time in his home country as a central midfielder but under Louis van Gaal was used mostly in defence.

That has continued under Mourinho and with Blind's contract running out at the end of next season there's a good chance that he'll be leaving Manchester this summer.

According to the newspaper Ajax will put the feelers out to see if their former player features in Jose's future plans and if not they'll make a move for the player who cost United around £14 million.

There are going to big changes in United's defence before next season with Luke Shaw and Matteo Darmian almost certainly going to be sold.

The Red Devils will be on the look out for at least one centre back and some full backs.

The Premier League will be an uglier place for a lack of Daley Blind!
