Manchester United are reportedly willing to sell Kobbie Mainoo, Joshua Zirkzee, Manuel Ugarte and Tyrell Malacia in January. None of the players have been regular starters this season, with United enjoying a return to form in recent weeks.
United struggled during the early part of the season, with Amorim coming under huge pressure following a Carabao Cup defeat against League Two Grimsby in August. But the Red Devils have lost just one of their last seven Premier League matches and have climbed to seventh in the table. And Amorim will be keen to use the January transfer window to take his team to the next level.
According to ESPN, United will listen to offers for Mainoo, Zirkzee, Ugarte and Malacia.
But Amorim is facing a major dilemma as he will be left short of players if he allows any of them to move on before he has brought in fresh faces.
United will be lacking numbers over the festive period as Bryan Mbeumo, Amad and Noussair Mazraoui are set to play at the Africa Cup of Nations, which gets underway just before Christmas.
The final of the tournament is due to be played on Sunday, January 18, which could leave the Red Devils short of options well into the New Year. So Amorim may have to delay and departures until he once again has a full squad to choose from.
