THE BIGGER PICTURE: The 30-year-old frontman has given his all to the United cause, filling various roles in their attacking unit and helping them to Carabao Cup glory, but he has registered just two goals through 26 appearances. With that in mind, the Red Devils are preparing to look elsewhere.

AND WHAT'S MORE: United do have a purchase option agreed with Burnley, but the Manchester Evening News reports that this will not be taken up and the experienced Dutchman will be returned to Turf Moor this summer – with his contract with the Clarets, who have secured promotion back to the Premier League, due to run until 2025.
