Anthony Martial is reportedly one of several Manchester United players who has been told that he will not be free to leave the club this summer.
The 26-year-old fell out of favour under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick and has only managed one goal and one assist from nine games on loan at Sevilla so far.
With Sevilla supposedly not interested in signing Martial on a permanent deal, the France international is due to return to Old Trafford with a view to securing a move elsewhere in the summer.
However, the Daily Mail reports that Man United are not preparing to sanction Martial's exit while they prepare to wave goodbye to a number of soon-to-be free agents.
A total of six players are expected to leave the club at the end of their contracts in June, and the report adds that Martial, Dean Henderson, Eric Bailly, Phil Jones, Axel Tuanzebe and Donny van de Beek are also among those who are set to be denied exits.
Martial's deal at Man United does not expire for another two years, but the former Monaco man is expected to be given the chance to prove himself under manager-elect Erik ten Hag.
The Frenchman has scored 79 goals and set up 50 more in 269 appearances for the Red Devils in all tournaments since his 2015 arrival.
