So, it seems that several players will leave the club this summer so let us speculate a bit about what kind of transfer fees that we can expect post Corona. The sales and fees are often distorted/lowered since these players in general are on very high wages that no other club can match.
Jones 10m: Injury prone and on high wages.
Smalling 20m: Good defender, not injury prone but lacks ability and coolness on the ball. Might fetch a higher fee if sold to a PL club.
Rojo <5m: Apparently we have been trying to sell the guy for several years but he does not seem prepared to take a big pay-cut. Probably sold to Argentina for 5m or less.
Sanchez <5m: We would probably have to accept him leaving on a free transfer due to his ridiculous wages that we need to get rid of.
Lingard 25m: Out of form but a former England international should fetch at least 25m if a club such as Newcastle or West Ham are interested. He has a body type similar to Giggs which should allow for a lengthy career.
Dalot 15-20m: Young player with decent potential. Might be better suited as a wing back.
In total ca 75m which together with existing funds (70-100m?) will be used to sign a RW, a CB, and a striker, if rumours are to be believed.
