According to The Manchester Evening News, Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is preparing to receive January bids for at least 10 of his first-team squad. The Portuguese tactician has 27 players at his disposal with a number of players struggling to hold down a first-team place. A host of other clubs have been alerted and the Red Devils are expecting a busy January window as offers flood in.
 

Memphis Depay, Morgan Schneiderlin, Matteo Darmian, Marcos Rojo, Ashley Young and Sam Johnstone are all expected to be the main subjects of interest with Daley Blind, Marouane Fellaini and Anthony Martial also linked with possible moves away from Old Trafford. German midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has been recently linked with a move to the MLS and the 2014 World Cup winner will only be sold on a permanent transfer.  

It’s also believed that Mourinho has stated that none of his players who are on the departure list will be sold to any of their potential rivals for Champions League places.
