Everton pushing to sign Man Utd graduate on loan?

Everton are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United graduate Anthony Elanga on loan this month.

The Swedish youngster was a regular starter under interim boss Ralf Rangnick last term but has struggled for minutes under manager Erik ten Hag.

He has been used sparingly off the bench for most of the season and it is now claimed that the Toffees want to sign him on a short-term loan deal.

United are currently reluctant to part ways with their youngster but the situation could change towards the end of the January transfer window.

Jadon Sancho has recently returned to the club after a special training programme and he is likely to be involved in the coming weeks.

His return could pave the way for Elanga to leave. Antony is currently a regular on the right wing and Sancho could act as his deputy.

Elanga has also been linked with West Ham United, but the Toffees will be hoping to lure him with the assurance of regular game time.
