Manchester United defender Tyrell Malacia is edging towards a loan move to PSV Eindhoven for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign.

Manchester United defender Tyrell Malacia is reportedly set for a loan move to PSV Eindhoven.

The 25-year-old has been on the fringes of the first-team plans at the Theatre of Dreams since the arrival of Ruben Amorim in the middle of November.

Malacia has been linked with a move to Portuguese side Benfica, although a reported switch to the Primeira Liga collapsed for the Dutchman.

The left-back did not even make the bench for the Red Devils on Sunday afternoon, when they suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

Since making the high-profile switch from Feyenoord during the summer of 2022, Malacia has featured on 47 occasions for the fallen English giants.

Man United's Malacia set for PSV medical?

According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, a Manchester United first-teamer is on the verge of leaving Old Trafford before the deadline.

The report claims that Malacia is edging close to a switch to PSV, who are looking to compete for the title of Dutch champions this season.

It is understood that Man United and the Pride of the South have reached the final stages of an agreement for Malacia, who is seeking regular first-team minutes.

The next step in a move to the Eredivisie for the defender is a medical, with the appropriate fitness tests now booked in for the player.

Malacia's stuttering Man United career

Due to a long-term injury, Malacia did not feature for Man United on a single occasion during the 2023-24 campaign, with the defender missing plenty of game time at Old Trafford.

There was hope that the Dutchman could return to the fold and fight for his place under Amorim, although the player appears destined for an exit.

The Red Devils have already secured Malacia's replacement, with Danish full-back Patrick Dorgu joining from Serie A outfit Leece for £26m.
