Manchester United are set to cut loose three of their goalkeepers this summer.

The Manchester Evening News says Sergio Romero and Joel Pereira are both expected to be released as United have no intention of triggering the one-year extension in either player's contract.

Romero, 33, has not played all season and is effectively fifth-choice behind David de Gea, Dean Henderson, Lee Grant and Nathan Bishop. The Argentina goalkeeper was unable to engineer a transfer in either of the last two windows and is marooned at United until the end of the season.

Pereira, 24, has played once in the Championship for Huddersfield, the latest in a string of disastrous loans, and has not appeared for United in more than three years.

Popular Under-23 'keeper Paul Woolston, 22, is due to be let go after spending two-and-a-half years with the second string and Grant, 38, is out of contract in June and unlikely to have his playing contract extended.
