ANTHONY Elanga is in talks to join one of Manchester United’s European rivals this summer.
However, the reported transfer fee the Red Devils are demanding has been branded a “joke” by supporters.
The Sweden international is understood to have been told he is free to leave United as part of Erik ten Hag’s squad overhaul.
Sky in Germany report that Elanga is in talks with RB Leipzig, who United could face in the Champions League, but that the discussions are not yet advanced.
Other clubs have also enquired about the 21-year-old, who United are said to value at between £13million and £17million.
Elanga has been with United for eight years but struggled during Ten Hag’s first season in Manchester.

He made just seven starts as he failed to score a single goal in 26 appearances across all competitions.
The forward’s lack of first-team opportunities had seen him linked with an exit in January but no deal materialised.
Elanga is now expected to be one of a number of summer exits from Old Trafford.
Ten Hag has made eight players available for transfer ahead of next season as he looks to raise funds for new arrivals.

However, United supporters are not happy with the fee the club are demanding for Elanga.
One disgruntled fan tweeted: “Should be more than that.”
Another wrote: “Buy back for £35million if need be.”
A third added: “If Liverpool were selling him they’d get £25million, easy. I.e. Solanke and Brewster.”
Meanwhile, another commented: “That €15million price tag is a joke. £10million ffs…”
