The former United midfielder also thinks the club should part ways with central defender Matthijs de Ligt, who joined only last summer.
Another summer signing, Joshua Zirkzee, is also on Scholes’ list, having struggled to make an impact since his arrival from Italian side Bologna.
Three England internationals make the list: Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount, and Luke Shaw. Scholes is eager for the club to let go of the trio.
Rashford recently hinted at seeking a new challenge, despite being sidelined by head coach Ruben Amorim.
The final two names on Scholes’ list are less surprising, as he advocates for the departures of Casemiro and Antony.
Scholes revealed these eight players in a video on TNT Sports’ social media channels, during a game of ‘Keep or Sell.’
Additionally, Scholes reassured United supporters that they should not be concerned if the club decides to sell Alejandro Garnacho.

Asked if United may need to sell Garnacho in order to finance a rebuild under Amorim, Scholes told TNT Sports: ‘I can see that with Garnacho, yeah.
‘I think United could get better than Garnacho, although he’s a young player and there’s still probably better to come, I still think he’s a little bit scruffy in his technique at times, I think his decision-making sometimes is really poor.
‘I wouldn’t be afraid or I wouldn’t be worried if they sold Garnacho. But Mainoo, I would be offended by that.
‘The lad [Garnacho] is absolutely capable, there’s no doubt about that, but finding him a position in this team has been a struggle.’
