The Sweden international is thought to be interested in a loan move to the Bundesliga. Elanga has appeared in just five Premier League games for United this season. In 18 appearances in all competitions, he has yet to score. The rise of Garnacho and the acquisition of £85 million man Antony have limited his playing time.

After getting into the first squad in 2021-22, Elanga has found minutes tougher to come by as Erik ten Hag continues to shape his vision of Manchester United. According to Romano, the player’s camp would be open to a move to the Bundesliga, however, Everton is also interested. Ultimately, United will decide whether Elanga remains or leaves.

The 20-year-career old’s has stalled slightly since bursting into the scene at Manchester United last season, but he definitely has potential and has demonstrated his worth in fits and spurts. Going out and getting consistent minutes could be crucial for his development, but it’s unclear whether United will want to keep him for the time being.

This January, the Red Devils tried to bolster their ranks on a shoestring budget by signing Wout Weghorst on loan from Burnley to give competition in attack. Elanga has participated in 18 games for United this season, but has only started six of them. Everton are still fighting for relegation, while Dortmund are fighting to finish in Germany’s top four. United, on the other hand, are still fighting on four fronts, and Erik ten Hag has made no secret of his need for adequate squad depth.
