That could lead to big changes in personnel as Erik ten Hag looks to build on his first campaign in charge.
The United boss wants to bring in the likes of Harry Kane, Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund, but there could also be several outgoings.
Here are seven players who could leave the club according to AI chatbot Perplexity.
David De Gea
The goalkeeper has reportedly agreed a one-year contract extension but was listed as released on the recent retained list due to the fact he has not signed on the dotted line.
He is expected to stay on but with his £375,000-a-week wages drastically slashed and the possibility he will no longer be the No1.

Harry Maguire
There is a lot of speculation the United captain could be heading off for a new challenge amid interest from Newcastle and Aston Villa.
It is also claimed the Red Devils could include Maguire in a potential player-plus-cash offer for Chelsea outcast Mount.

Luke Shaw
Shaw is a surprise name on the list given his importance to Ten Hag, with the defender impressing at left-back and centre-back this season.

The 27-year-old admitted he has even been busy trying to recruit Rice and Kane for United while he is on England duty with the pair.

Dean Henderson
The goalkeeper spent the season on loan at Nottingham Forest, who are keen on sealing a permanent move for around £30million.
United have been linked with Andre Onana and Diogo Costa and the arrival of a new shot-stopper would likely see Henderson slip further down the pecking order.

Anthony Martial
The Red Devils have made Atalanta striker Hojlund a key target and are willing to offer Martial in exchange for the youngster.
Martial joined Sevilla on loan in 2022 and his persistent injury issues mean United could try to offload him on a permanent basis.

Scott McTominay
According to AI United should sell McTominay if they receive a bid of around £30m for his services.
The Scotland international is fancied by Newcastle but it remains to be seen if he will be allowed to leave Old Trafford, or if any club will be willing to match the £50m asking price.

Shola Shoretire
The youngster joined Bolton on loan this season and quickly became an important member of the squad, making 16 appearances as the Trotters reached the play-offs.
He is highly-rated and snubbed moves to Barcelona and Juventus previously, so if he does leave it will likely be on loan once again.
