JAKARTA - Manchester United (MU) is preparing to welcome the January transfer window. For this reason, the Red Devils are said to be improving the squad in order to have slots for new players.

In the transfer window last summer, Manchester United officially brought four players. They are Tom Heaton, Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo.

To balance their presence, United chose to loan out a number of players including Axel Tuanzebe and Andreas Pereira. In addition, the Red Devils also sold Daniel James to Leeds United.

For the January transfer window, the same thing again applied MU. Under the leadership of Ralf Rangnick as the new coach, the clean-up of United's players will certainly be even more stringent.

Reported by VOI from The Sun on Wednesday, December 15, there are six MU players who are included in the list of cleaning up the team. One of them is Jesse Lingard, the player is predicted to be sold to clear the slot.

The reason for selling Lingard was because the player had attracted interest from West Ham after he was loaned to the club in the second half of last season. Not only that, the consideration of the duration of the player's contract also made MU choose to exchange this player for money for their spending capital.

Furthermore, there is Phil Jones who is also predicted to be sold by Manchester United. Actually, the desire to sell this player appeared last summer, but due to difficulty finding a suitable team, United chose to keep Jones.

Now, MU is sure to launch his intentions. Although Jones still has a contract until 2023, the presence of Raphael Varane last summer has practically reduced the opportunity to play for Jones.

Anthony Martian is the next player on Manchester United's selling list ahead of the upcoming transfer window. The reason is clear because he did not get regular playing opportunities both under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his current coach, Rangnick. Seeing this, Martial's agent agreed to find a new adventure for his client.

The last selling list is Juan Mata who can actually look impressive for the team. But at a young age, Mata is considered not to be able to compete with other midfielders in the Manchester United squad.

Now we enter the list of players who will be loaned MU. First is Dean Henderson. He will be loaned out because under Rangnick's tutelage, De Gea remains a more reliable goalkeeper. For that reason the coach is predicted to give Henderson permission to undergo a loan period at another club in order to get enough playing minutes.

Another player on the MU clean-up list is Amar Diallo. He is one of six names of young players who Rangnick revealed in the Champions League match versus Young Boys last week.

In that match, MU got a number of golden opportunities in the first half, one of which was through Diallo's action. Unfortunately, his decision to provide feedback instead made the opportunity to score a goal wasted.

At 19 years old, Diallo has a long future with United. As a result, a loan to another club can be the best way for the player as well as increase his flying hours.
