OFFICIAL: Man Utd release TEN players including Eriksen & Evans

MANCHESTER UNITED have announced that TEN players are set to leave the club.

The Red Devils announced their released and retained list with some notable names heading for the exit door.

Star players such as Christian Eriksen, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof have not been offered new deals.

Veteran goalkeeper Tom Heaton is also heading for the exit if a new deal can not be agreed.

The club have confirmed that discussions over a new contract are underway.

It is stated that a new deal would see the former Burnley stopper stay at Old Trafford for the 2025/26 season.

Youngsters Hubert Graczyk, Jack Kingdon, Sam Murray, Tom Myles, James Nolan and Tom Wooster are all also due for release.

Notable names among those to depart the club include Christian Eriksen, Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans - the latter of whom won three Premier League titles and lifted the Champions League in his first spell at Old Trafford.

While Eriksen scored on his last appearance for the club by netting a penalty on the Red Devils' 2-0 win on the final day of the Premier League season against Aston Villa, that was not enough for him to earn a new deal.

Also departing is Sweden skipper Lindelof, who struggled for consistency throughout his seven seasons at the club following a £40million move from Benfica in 2017.

Reserve goalkeeper Tom Heaton is also among those included among a list of free agents, although he is in talks with United over fresh terms.

The list of departures is completed by academy players Hubert Graczyk, Jack Kingdon, Sam Murray, Tom Myles, James Nolan and Tom Wooster.

A Manchester United statement published on the club's website read: 'The Academy is proud of all of our departing young players throughout the age groups.

'They will be supported in securing contracts at new clubs, provided with a bespoke aftercare programme, and will always have a lifelong association with Manchester United.'
