MANCHESTER UNITED star Anthony Elanga has reportedly REJECTED a move to Everton.
The 21-year-old Swedish winger is already a fan favourite with the Old Trafford faithful despite struggling for regular action.
He broke into the first-team under Ralf Rangnick in the 2021/22 campaign but his opportunities were limited once Erik ten Hag arrived.
Elanga appeared 26 times for United last term but only five of those were Premier League starts.
Ten Hag has preferred the likes of Antony, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Alejandro Garnacho on the wing.
That has allegedly left Elanga looking to find a new club in order to continue his development and he has been linked with a switch to Everton.

Although he still looks set to depart as they added that the ace has “already decided upon his next destination” for the upcoming campaign.
Elanga has travelled with United to the USA for the club’s upcoming pre-season American tour.
