Andreas Pereira joins Anthony Martial in 'pleading for Manchester United exit' by going public with wish to stay at Flamengo as Old Trafford exodus under Ralf Rangnick picks up pace

Playmaker Andreas Pereira has become the latest Manchester United star to decide to opt out of the new era under interim boss Ralf Rangnick and request a permanent move away.

The senior ranks at Old Trafford are aware that an overhaul is set to take place under the German, with Rangnick in charge of restoring the glory days at United and making the side a competitive force once again.

The 63-year-old has already set about assessing the squad and weighing up the futures of some players, in preparation for his longer term role as a senior consultant at the club following his stint as interim manager.
