Manchester United youngster Toby Collyer is set to leave Old Trafford temporarily in search of regular first-team football, with a loan move now agreed, Softfootball reports.
Collyer has found opportunities hard to come by at United this season, particularly under former manager Rúben Amorim, where his minutes were limited amid stiff competition in midfield. With the club now under the guidance of caretaker manager Michael Carrick, a decision has been made by both the coaching staff and the United board to allow the young midfielder head out on loan.
According to Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, the deal has been wrapped up and is expected to be completed imminently.
Toby Collyer to Hull City on loan from Manchester United, deal agreed and set to be sealed today.
The move to Hull City is seen as a development-focused decision, giving Collyer the chance to play consistent football, gain experience, and continue his progression away from the intense spotlight of Old Trafford. United remain confident in his long-term potential and believe regular game time will be crucial to his growth.
In related news, Kobbie Mainoo is now set to remain at Manchester United, despite uncertainty surrounding his future earlier in the season. The midfielder had asked to leave due to a lack of minutes under Amorim, a situation that drew widespread attention across the footballing world. However, with changes in the dugout and renewed trust from the club, Mainoo is expected to stay put and play a key role moving forward.
As United look to steady the ship and plan for the future, strategic loan moves like Collyer’s — alongside clarity over Mainoo’s situation — underline a renewed focus on player development and squad balance at the club.
