Ashley Young is due to fly to Italy on Friday to complete a £1.3 million move to Inter Milan after Manchester United finally agreed to sell their veteran club captain.

The 34-year-old will undergo a medical at the Humanitas private hospital in Rozzano, close to Milan, as well as being given a tour of Inter’s Angelo Moratti Sports Centre training base in Appiano Gentile.

It is understood that Inter have also agreed to pay United an undisclosed add on fee should they win the Serie A title this season.

Barring any unforeseen complications with the medical, the impending transfer will bring an end to Young’s eight and a half year spell at Old Trafford.

Inter’s move for left wing back, Leonardo Spinazzola, from Roma in a swap deal with Matteo Politano had appeared to complicate Young’s hopes of a move but Antonio Conte remained keen to bring the former England international to San Siro as he chases the club’s first title for a decade. Inter’s young full back, Federico Dimarco, is now likely to join Verona on loan.

A £17 million signing from Aston Villa in 2011, Young’s departure means David De Gea and Phil Jones will be the only players left in the squad currently available to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who have won the Premier League title with United. Nemanja Matic won the competition twice with Chelsea and Chris Smalling is on loan with Roma.
