Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag previews the Fulham game
As Manchester United prepare to face Fulham, it’s possible seven players will be involved before then leaving at the end of the season. Erik ten Hag is poised to tinker with his side for the game at Old Trafford. So Express Sport now takes a look at those who might be playing for the club for the last time in the Premier League on Sunday.
David De Gea has been tipped to sign a new deal at United.
But though Erik ten Hag wants the Spain international to stay, the 32-year-old is yet to agree to a massive salary reduction.
De Gea currently earns £375,000-a-week, making him the best-paid goalkeeper in world football, yet the Red Devils want him to drop down to £200,000-a-week instead.
Though there’s still an expectancy he’ll stick, rather than twist, there’s still a possibility he’ll leave.
De Gea, despite having some iffy moments this season, has still done enough to win the Premier League Golden Glove award.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has come on leaps and bounds in recent months.
Yet there’s still no guarantee the right-back will be at Old Trafford by this time next season, despite his improvement.
United want a new right-back, with Jeremie Frimpong linked, and any arrival would see Wan-Bissaka fall down his manager’s pecking order.
A return to Crystal Palace has been mooted, though the Eagles would have to give some of the £50million they received for the player back to stand a chance of any possible transfer.

United won’t want to risk Raphael Varane ahead of next week’s FA Cup final showdown with Manchester City.
Therefore, that could give Harry Maguire a chance to make a rare start.
The former Leicester star has repeatedly insisted he wants to stay at Old Trafford and fight for his future.
But Maguire can’t afford another 12 months of being stuck behind the likes of Varane, Lisandro Martinez, Victor Lindelof and even Luke Shaw in his manager’s hierarchy.
United will likely look to move Maguire on, with Inter Milan and Fulham potential next destinations.
Scott McTominay
United are hoping to sign a new midfielder this summer.
Adrien Rabiot is in their sights, with the Juventus star primed to leave Turin on a free transfer.
And Frenkie de Jong and Alexis Mac Allister are alternatives, despite Barcelona and Brighton being set to be stubborn in negotiations.
Should a new player come in, then Scott McTominay is likely to be sold.
Newcastle are fans of the Scotland international, who has been linked with a departure providing an offer of around £30m comes in.
