Manchester United are ‘set to loan out Facundo Pellistri and Anthony Elanga next season with Erik ten Hag keen for pair of young wingers to get regular playing time’
- Manchester United are already making their plans for the upcoming summer
- The Red Devils currently have a plethora of wingers in their squad
- Facundo Pellistri and Anthony Elanga have seen little playing time this season
Manchester United have reportedly drawn up plans to send two of their young wingers out on loan next season.
United have a wealth of options in attacking areas, meaning the likes of Facundo Pellistri and Anthony Elanga have seen little playing time this season.
Pellistri hardly featured in the first half of the campaign but has made six substitute appearances since the New Year.
The 21-year-old has shown enough in those cameos to suggest he could have a future at Old Trafford and a loan move is now likely for him to continue his progression, according to Manchester Evening News.
Pellistri joined United for £9million from Penarol in 2020 and had two loan spells with Alaves before finally making his debut in the quarter-finals of this season’s Carabao Cup in October.

Elanga, meanwhile, is also set to join another club on a temporary basis with the 20-year-old having seen his minutes dwindle as the season has gone on.
He has made seven starts under Erik ten Hag but only once of those has come since the World Cup.
The youngster hasn’t scored in over a year and is clearly less trusted by Ten Hag than he was by Ralf Rangnick, under whom he started over 50 per cent of games.
With the likes of Antony, Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Anthony Martial competing for positions on the wing both Pellistri and Elanga should benefit from a loan move.
