Manchester United will only sell Japan midfielder Shinji kagawa to a foreign club should the player ask to leave, sources have claimed.
Kagawa's future has long been a hot topic following the highly-rated midfielder's failure to secure a regular sport in United's first team.
Despite an impressive display in United's 5-0 away victory against Bayer Leverkusen last week followed by a start against Tottenham Hotspur last weekend,
the player is still deemed to be a fringe player at the club.
Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs have all been linked with the player but it is understood United boss David Moyes would rather sell the player to a foreign club than risk losing him to a Premier League rival. A source at Old Trafford told SportsDirect News that Moyes still sees Kagawa as a strong talent and does not want the player to come back to haunt him.
"We hope Shinji stays, of course, but if he goes, it needs to be to a club where he will do least damage against us."
Kagawa is expected to make his mind up later this month.
