Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick explains why he only started Donny van de Beek once

Ralf Rangnick is unsure if all of Manchester United's out of contract players will leave the club in the summer.

Manchester United have wasted plenty of money over the last century, and it has revealed that they spent £908m on new signings.Since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013, the Red Devils have struggled in all competitions and continually looked to the transfer market to try and bring in players to reignite the team.But a large bulk of their acquisitions have flopped at Old Trafford.Angel Di Maria (£67.5m), Anthony Martial (£54m) and Harry Maguire (£78m) are just a few names amongst a plethora of players who have massively underperformed since joining United.Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane were purchased ahead of the start of the season for a combined total of £112.5m, and although neither have lit up the Premier League just yet, it is too early to completely judge either of the pair.According to CIES Football Observatory, the club have made the biggest loss on transfers in the past 10 years - £78m more than rivals Manchester City, who have trophies and a star-studded squad for their expenditure.United are currently sitting in fourth place in the Premier League and have been tipped by many to splash the cash again in the summer once a permanent manager is found. Current boss Ralf Rangnick went unbacked in the January transfer window, with the board keen to only buy players who are part of the plans of his successor.

Manchester United passed on the chance to sign Denis Zakaria last month, a decision they may well regret based on the midfielder's Juventus debut.

Manchester United were knocked out of the FA Cup by Middlesbrough on Friday night in a historic victory, though Sol Bamba didn’t appear too overwhelmed by the occasion.After a 1-1 draw after extra time, the game was settled by penalties.Young winger Anthony Elanga blazed his spot-kick over the bar in sudden death which led to huge celebrations from the players and the 9,000 away supporters – bar Bamba.Instead of racing around the pitch in sheer joy, the defender simply stood with his hands aloft, emotionless after the 16-shot shootout – in which he coolly put away his penalty.The former Cardiff City was caught in the act, with the official Emirates FA Cup Twitter account tweeting the photos with the caption: “What a feeling! Not sunk in for Sol Bamba, though!”The 37-year-old then replied: “I’m too old for this s***,” with three laughing emojis.
