Timothy Fosu-Mensah close to joining Bayer Leverkusen for £1.5m

Manchester United defender Timothy Fosu-Mensah is close to making the move to Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen, Manchester Evening News reports.

The Netherlands international made his Red Devils debut more than four years ago, but he has not been able to establish himself with only 30 appearances in all competitions.

The 23-year-old has had a tough time with injuries and he missed nearly 11 months of action between 2019 and 2020 with a cruciate ligament damage.

Fosu-Mensah started two of the club’s final three league games last season, but he has found himself down the selection order this term.
