Saha set for United summer sale

Louis Saha will be allowed to leave Old Trafford this summer for less than half the £12.5million Manchester United paid for the Frenchman only 15 months ago.

Sir Alex Ferguson has decided to cut his losses on the former Fulham striker and it is understood that United are willing to accept a bid of just £5m for the 26-year-old.

Saha has struggled to make any impact at Old Trafford since joining from Fulham in January last year. He scored only nine goals for the club and through a combination of injury and competition for places has spent more time on the sidelines than the pitch.

However, his £40,000-a-week wages make a return to Fulham highly unlikely.
