Ruben Amorim is ready to let young midfielder Toby Collyer leave the club on loan.
Collyer impressed during pre-season, however, he has only made one Premier League appearance this season.
The report claims that the Portuguese coach is open to letting the 20-year-old midfielder go on a loan move to gain experience with another club.
The Dutchman is a huge fan of the Red Devils ยูฟ่าเบท academy graduate and is now looking forward to reuniting with the 20-year-old.
However, Man United are not interested in selling Collyer but could be open-minded to a loan move, and their former interim boss is set to make a loan bid for him.
Van Nistelrooy left the Old Trafford club following the arrival of Ruben Amorim but immediately secured a return to the Premier League,
He started his reign with the Foxes with a 3-1 victory over West Ham United on Tuesday.
Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has just taken over as Leicester City manager, is likely to seize the opportunity to approach Collyer to help him in the January transfer window.
The Dutchman believes that Collyer has the ability to make an impact in the Foxes’ midfield and United could trust his former coach to help develop the youngster.
