Manchester United could sell three key attackers in the upcoming January transfer window.
The decision could come in response to pressure from Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the prospective minority stakeholder, who is eager to address the club's extravagant spending.
United have seen significant expenditures of £1.4 billion on players since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure. The current manager, Erik ten Hag, is expected to face scrutiny, particularly regarding these three players:
Antony

Brazilian winger acquired for £85 million. The Brazil international has struggled to adapt to English football, with only two goals in 16 appearances this season.
Despite Ten Hag's support for the player, sources suggest that Antony is set to leave the club.
Jadon Sancho

Sancho is another player reportedly on the selling list due to a deadlock in his situation. After being dropped from the squad for a crucial match against Arsenal in September, Sancho publicly expressed dissatisfaction, implying a strained relationship with Ten Hag.
With minimal contributions, just one goal in ten games this season, a return to Borussia Dortmund seems probable for Sancho.
Anthony Martial

The future of Martial at Manchester United is also uncertain. Despite joining the club as a highly touted young talent, Martial has struggled to meet expectations.
This season, he has been overshadowed by new arrival Rasmus Hojlund in Ten Hag's plans, scoring only one goal in 14 appearances. It appears that Martial may no longer align with United's strategic vision.
