Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick has sent a clear message to the unhappy players at the club with their situation at Old Trafford.
Several players are reported to want to leave during the January window, with Anthony Martial, Jesse Lingard and Dean Henderson all being linked with moves away amid a lack of playing time.
Reports last month suggested that Rangnick wanted to trim his squad in January, with outgoings required before they consider bringing any new signings into the club.

And the former FB Leipzig manager, who has made an inconsistent start to his managerial role at the theatre of dreams, has urged any unsettled players to come to him for a chat before deciding the next step.
‘As of yet all the players are still here. With a squad we have at Manchester United, a lot of players in every position, you’re always going to have unhappy players,’ he said ahead of United’s Premier League clash against Wolves on Monday.
‘My office and my door is always open, we’ve had quite a few discussions already in the last two weeks and whenever a player would like to speak to me my door is always open and i can tell them where they stand.
‘But as i said we can only play with 11 players and we can only sub three players in each game, like most managers i’d like to have five subs like most leagues in Europe, but currently we do not have that.
‘I can understand players who would like to get more game time and maybe see their chance somewhere else in another club in England or abroad, but this is only one issue that the player would like to do. We still have Covid, we are still in three competitions.
‘But also we have to think about it in the eyes of the club, we have to think about what is best for the club.’
