Serie A hopefuls looking to take Man Utd signing on loan Serie B side Monza are hoping to take Manchester United winger Facundo Pellistri on loan this month, claims a report. Pellistri has been at United since October after arriving from Penarol in his native Uruguay. The 19-year-old has been a decent impact at Old Trafford for the Under-23 side with two goals and an assist from six games. He has trained with the first team, but he is yet to make his senior debut for the club. That has come as a surprise for Penarol, who were told that Pellistri would have a role to play at Old Trafford after asking for him back on loan as part of the £9m deal. Now though it now seems United’s stance has changed. According to Manchester Evening News, they will sanction a loan departure for the winger. There’s been some reported interest from Spain with Celta Vigo, but Monza, who are second in Serie B, are now keen. Padova Sport, via Sport Witness claim Monza have “finally set their sights” on Pellistri. Pellestri does hold dual Uruguayan and Spanish citizenship so a move to Europe would be pretty straight forward. The report claims United are intent on getting minutes for their new recruit and the “Iberian Peninsula seems to be the most popular destination”.
