With just over 24 hours left of the current transfer window, it appears that Man United are agreeable to allowing one of their centre-backs to leave the club.
Erik ten Hag has enjoyed a reasonable window this summer, and with one or two more outgoings before Friday’s 11pm cut-off, the Dutchman will have arguably got most of the business he wanted doing completed.
There may still be a race against time for the likes of Donny van de Beek to be signed on elsewhere, but if all parties are willing, there’s still enough time to ensure that a deal gets done.
His colleague, Harry Maguire, appeared to be on the way to West Ham United earlier in the window too, but that deal collapsed and, as a result, the England international is staying at Old Trafford for at least another few months.
For Teden Mengi, however, a move on to pastures new is likely to soon become a reality.
According to the Manchester Evening News, the 21-year-old centre-back is set to sign for Premier League rivals, Luton Town.
The outlet note that it will be on a permanent rather than loan deal, and it will allow the youngster to get some significant minutes in the Premier League under his belt – something that’s been denied him thus far at United.
