Man United are likely to sell a number of players this summer after failing to qualify for next season's Champions League.
It was the final that Man United couldn’t afford to lose. A crossroads moment which would define the level of investment – and rate of sales – over the summer transfer window.
Lose the Europa League final United did and so the rumour mill begins. How many of United’s better players will stick around for another season outside of Europe’s elite competition?
Let’s look at the latest odds for three of their highest profile players.
Man United Transfer Odds
Alejandro Garnacho
The Argentine had already caused a stir on social media less than 12 hours after the final whistle in Bilbao, criticising manager Ruben Amorim for restricting him to a 20-minute cameo off the bench as the manager opted for semi-final hero Mason Mount from the start.
The 20-year-old has potential but has only managed 16 goals from 93 Premier League appearances across the last four seasons. According to Garnacho's transfer odds, those moderate returns will not prevent Chelsea from making a move this summer.
Garnacho is rated 67% likely to join Chelsea according to the shortest odds of 1/2 but can be backed at a best price of 4/7 through William Hill.

Marcus Rashford
Aston Villa was the winter January transfer window escape location for Marcus Rashford after nearly 300 appearances for Man United.
He is unlikely to return to Manchester under Amorim, who suggested in January he'd rather give a place on the bench to his 63-year-old goalkeeping coach than Rashford because of his lack of effort.
Rashford has performed reasonably well under Unai Emery at Aston Villa, scoring four times in 17 appearances across all competitions.
Two of those came in 10 Premier League appearances to go with two assists, while he was the catalyst for Villa’s ultimately failed comeback bid in the second-half of their Champions League quarter-final second leg with PSG.
Rashford is 50% likely to join Barcelona this summer according to the shortest price but 36% likely at a best price of 7/4 on bet365.
He is 9/2 with the same bookmaker to join any Saudi Arabian team, while interestingly he is an equal 6/1 chance to finish the summer with either his current employers United or loan station Villa.

Bruno Fernandes
Finally, the one player that United will be desperate not to leave this summer. Bruno Fernandes has the most goal contributions (41) in Europa League history but flopped on the biggest stage.
He has already said he is open to leaving Old Trafford this summer if they decide to cash in on him after the miserable Europa League final defeat, but how likely is it to happen?
The odds suggest he is 17% likely to land in Saudi Arabia according to the shortest price of 5/1. However, he can be backed to join any Saudi Pro League club at a best price of 17/2 on Paddy Power (11% chance).
The second likeliest transfer destination for Fernandes according to the odds is the Bernabeu - he is 12/1 to swap United for Xabi Alonso's Real Madrid this summer.
