It was another busy summer transfer window at Manchester United, with regular visits through the arrivals and departures longue at Old Trafford. Nine players left United permanently last summer, and the club offloaded another 11 ahead of Erik ten Hag’s second season in charge.<\/p>\n
But some stars may already regret their Red Devils exits after just a month of the new campaign. Express Sport pinpoints four.<\/p>\n
Alex Telles<\/strong><\/p>\n Alex Telles wasn’t in Ten Hag’s plans and may have been behind Brandon Williams and Alvaro Fernandez regardless, but he could be watching from Saudi Arabia with a sense of regret.<\/p>\n United have been struck with an early-season injury crisis at left-back, losing both Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.<\/p>\n It prompted Ten Hag to demand a short-term loan for Tottenham Hotspur’s Sergio Reguilon, allowing Williams and Fernandez to leave on loan.<\/p>\n But if Telles hadn’t yet sealed a move, he may have found a surprise route back into a starting role at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n READ MORE <\/strong> Anthony Martial has done something Rasmus Hojlund couldn’t at Man Utd[COMMENT] <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fred<\/strong><\/p>\n United cashed in on Fred after he entered the final 12 months of his contract this summer, sanctioning a \u00a313million switch to Fenerbahce.<\/p>\n But Ten Hag’s midfield has been a major topic of conversation after replacing Fred with Mason Mount seemingly unbalanced the Dutchman’s options.<\/p>\n United made an 11th-hour lunge to loan Sofyan Amrabat on deadline day. But before his arrival, Scott McTominay was the only other option capable of covering Casemiro in a defensive role.<\/p>\n If Fred had stayed put, he might have been in line for regular minutes again this term before having a selection of clubs to choose from with a sign-on bonus next summer.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

Instead, Kobbie Mainoo looks to be the next academy midfield star breaking through.<\/p>\n Follow Daily Express on\u00a0<\/strong>Threads<\/strong>\u00a0for all the latest news<\/strong><\/p>\n
