Japanese playmaker Shinji Kagawa, who has rarely shown glimpses of the level of form he showed at Borussia Dortmund, will be sold in the summer and perhaps a move back to the Bundesliga is a possibility.
Dutchman Alexander Buttner has failed to oust Evra from the left-back berth and isn’t seen as a viable long term replacement for the Frenchman. David Moyes will look to bring in either Everton’s Leighton Baines or Southampton teenager Luke Shaw to fill that void.
Back-up keeper Anders Lindegaard will leave the club having failed to coming close to unseating excellent Spaniard David de Gea between the sticks.
Luis Antonio Valencia’s form has been up and down this term and one gets the impression his continued place in the first team is down chiefly to the fact that the likes of Nani and Ashley Young are proving even more inconsistent than the Ecuadorian and he too will be sold in the summer.
Mexican international Javier Hernandez may have hoped that his first team chance would improve under Moyes but if anything he has been given an even more limited role than when Sir Alex Ferguson was in situ.
Chicharito has had no problem finding the back of the net, 54 goals in 136 appearances of which 56 were from the bench, tells it’s own story. A move to find regular first team football is probably in the best interests of all concerned as the back-up man has now fallen behind Danny Welbeck in the pecking order with Wayne Rooney and Robin Van Persie getting top billing.
