Manchester United defender Timothy Fosu-Mensah is set to fly to Germany today to complete a move to Bayer Leverkusen.
That’s according to Sky Sports Germany, who report that the Bundesliga club have agreed a €2m deal with Manchester United for the Dutchman.
Fosu-Mensah is currently in the final six months of his contract at Old Trafford, meaning he is free to negotiate with clubs around Europe over a free transfer in the summer.
A lack of playing time under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had led to suggestions he could be moved on this month as well.
