Out: Federico Macheda (Cardiff City) Free, Jack Barmby (Leicester City) Free, Rio Ferdinand (QPR) Free, Ryan Giggs Released, Nemanja Vidic (Inter Milan) Free, Alexander Buttner (Dynamo Moscow) Undisclosed, Patrice Evra (Juventus) Undisclosed, Nani (Sporting Lisbon) Loan, Wilfried Zaha (Crystal Palace) Loan, Shinji Kagawa (Borussia Dortmund) Undisclosed, Javier Hernandez (Real Madrid) Loan, Danny Welbeck (Arsenal) Undisclosed, Nick Powell (Leicester City) Loan, Tom Lawrence (Leicester City) Undisclosed, Michael Keane (Burnley) Loan, Tom Cleverley (Aston Villa) Loan
