Man Utd star Anthony Elanga lined up for PSV Eindhoven transfer as Ruud van Nistelrooy considers raid on former club
MAN UTD forward Anthony Elanga is being linked with a move to Dutch giants PSV Eindhoven.
The Red Devils attacker, 20, has started just seven games under Erik ten Hag this season.
He has largely been used as an impact substitute, with the likes of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Antony and Bruno Fernandes being selected ahead of him.
Now, with the January transfer window set to shut on Tuesday, Elanga is receiving interest from elsewhere.
According to journalist Rik Elfrink, PSV are “working hard” to bring the Sweden international to the Eredivisie.
And it could be an enticing proposition for Elanga given they are being coached by Man Utd legend Ruud van Nistelrooy.
The legendary striker, 46, confirmed in a press conference on Friday that his side are trying to sign new faces.
He said: “Of course I can’t name names, but we are working hard on it [signing players], because it is necessary.”
PSV currently sit six points adrift of league leaders Feyenoord in the Dutch top flight.
They have outscored all of their rivals aside from Ajax, but remain keen to bolster their forward options.

Elanga has contributed four goals and four assists in 48 appearances for Man Utd.
Meanwhile, PSV are also looking at another player who has graced the Old Trafford turf in the form of Adnan Januzai.
The Belgian, 27, left United in 2017 and spent five years with Real Sociedad.
He then joined Sevilla last summer, but is already being linked with a move away after just six appearances for the LaLiga side.
