Hide AdDraxler, left out of the club’s squad for a tour of Japan, has been told he has no future at the Parc des Princes.
Speaking about transfers earlier this month, United head coach Eddie Howe said: “There’s nothing to report, and we’re still in the process of working very hard behind the scenes to try and improve the squad. We’re keen to add strength to certain areas of the team. It’s a difficult window, a difficult market, high prices and very limited availability.”
