Reports suggest that the Portuguese has told nine of his players that they can leave Old Trafford - but supporters are unhappy that the 18-year-old right-back is one of those named
Reports of Jose Mourinho’s mass clear-out at Manchester United has sent fans into panic mode over Timothy Fosu-Mensah.
The 18-year-old was one of the few positives in Louis van Gaal’s final season at United, but the Daily Mailnow claims that the right-back is one of nine players who have been told by Mourinho that their future lies away from Old Trafford.
And while some fans have accepted the likely departures of Bastian Schweinsteiger, James Wilson and Will Keane, United supporters are struggling to understand why Fosu-Mensah is among the names on the scrapheap.
Mourinho is insane to even consider selling Fosu-Mensah. He's going to be a beast, if given the chance. What is he on?? #MUFC #ManUtd— Marcella (@TranceRevolved) 28 July 2016
If Mourinho is letting Borthwick-Jackson and Fosu-Mensah go permanently, I think he's lost the plot even earlier than LVG & Moyes did #mufc— Dean Parker (@deanmillaparker) 28 July 2016
Fosu-Mensah has been told he can leave? WTF. I hope that’s not true. He looked genuinely promising.
And he has the greatest song we have…— Dominic Oliver (@dominicoliver) 28 July 2016
Fosu-Mensah better not leave Man United. the lad is a cracking talent!— Josh Hammond (@josh270489) 28 July 2016
Be fuming if we let Fosu-Mensah go— Terry Martin (@terrymartin91) 28 July 2016
If what I'm reading about Fosu-Mensah is true, I have no words. #MUFC— Monica Lee (@MonicaBLee) 28 July 2016
And fans from United’s Premier League rivals, including Arsenal and Tottenham, are calling on their club to snap up Fosu-Mensah this summer, if his Old Trafford career is already over.
@AlexKJTimesFosu-Mensah is a beast and has got so much potential. They can't sell him, surely United won't repeat the Pogba mistake again?— Chana (@1MrChana) 28 July 2016
Would take Fosu-Mensah at Arsenal all day— Zach (@zachrowe1996) 28 July 2016
