Manchester United have sanctioned a deal to sell one of their wantaway stars.
The Red Devils recently began their Premier League campaign with a 1-0 home win over Fulham, as debutant Joshua Zirkzee came off the bench to net his first goal for the club since joining from Bologna. Fellow new signings Matthijs de Ligtand Noussair Mazraoui also made their maiden bows against the Cottagers.
Erik ten Hag has already seen Willy Kambwala, Mason Greenwood and Aaron Wan-Bissaka leave the club this summer in just a few high-profile exits. It is now thought another player could be on his way out before the August 31 deadline.
According to recent reports from The Athletic, Facundo Pellistri is now in talks with Greek side Panathinaikos regarding a four-year deal. The deal, however, is not yet done and several other clubs have an interest in taking the 22-year-old on loan for the 2024/25 campaign.
Pellistri has mustered just 25 first-team appearances for the club following his move from Uruguayan club Penarol in 2020. Despite spending some time last season on loan with Granada, he made 14 appearances for United in the 2023-24 campaign and started just one Premier League match against Crystal Palace.
