Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Manchester United: Fans blast Phil Jones after Laurie Whitwell reveals interest from Serie A
Phil Jones has struggled ever since Sir Alex Ferguson left Manchester United.
Jones has been a regular sight on the sidelines during his time at Old Trafford as he has succumbed to multiple injuries.
According to The Athletic, Man United are hopeful he can turn his career around and become the next Nemanja Matic. However, Laurie Whitwell reported that Jones has attracted attention from Serie A, although there are only a few clubs who can afford his wages.
The Mirror reported earlier this year that the Red Devils are ready to let him go for £12m in the summer. His old boss David Moyes is also interested in signing him when the transfer market opens, depending on whether or not West Ham stay in the Premier League.
Who should United sell?
Jesse Lingard
Phil Jones
Jones is apparently open to a move as he wants to be playing regularly, which is something Ole Gunnar Solskjaer cannot guarantee. He has dropped below the likes of Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof and Eric Bailly in the pecking order and could be on his way out sooner rather than later. Either way, fans will have to wait and see what happens before the start of next season.
Unsurprisingly, loads of United fans blasted the transfer update on social media, with one supporter calling it an “absolute joke” while another urged the board to “get rid ASAP.” One fan branded Jones as “deadwood” in reference to the fact he has only played two games in the Premier League this season.
Scroll down through some of the scathing reactions so far…

Once again exposing how bad the club was run. Giving unnecessary wages to average players making it harder for us to move them on
