Ashley Young Arrives Milan To Seal Man Utd Exit

Ashley Young has reportedly arrived in Milan to complete his medical ahead of his £1.2million switch to Antonio Conte's Inter, that’s according to The Sun.

The 34-Year-old has agreed an initial six-month contract with the view of extending his deal for another year.

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was left with little option but to cash in on the ex-Red Devils captain after he refused to sign a new deal with United.

Speaking on United's official website, Solskjaer confirmed the deal of letting Young go was the best for both parties saying: “Well, to be fair, I think it was for Ashley, you know.

“He is 35 in the summer and, if he gets a two-year contract somewhere, I think it's up to him to take that. We weren't ready to offer that.

“He's been a good servant for the club. He's been captain and he's won trophies, leagues, cups, but we've got players coming through.
