Manchester United Transfer News: Timothy Fosu-Mensah Close To January Exit

Manchester United Transfer News: Timothy Fosu-Mensah Close To January Exit

Another Manchester United star is set to leave the club during the January transfer window after being close to agreeing a move to Bayer 04 Leverkusen.

Timothy Fosu-Mensah is nearing a transfer to the Bundesliga side for a fee of around £1.5 million (R312 million), according to Manchester Everning News.

The right-back is seemingly not in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's plans, making only three starts in nearly four years.

He rejected a contract offer from United earlier in the season and his current deal is running out in June.

However, Leverkusen are said to be prepared to offer a fee for Fosu-Mensah this window in order to fend off interest from other clubs.

Solskjaer confirmed on Friday that the 23-year-old would be allowed to leave in January.

"I'm not sure if he will stay or if he's going to take an option now," Solskjaer said.

"He's not played enough, so of course he's been allowed to speak to clubs with a view to leaving now in January."

The player himself was reportedly favouring a return to Ajax Amsterdam who were keen on taking him for free once his contract expires, while Hertha BSC Berlin have also enquired about his services.
