Manchester United transfer news: Daley Blind set for Ajax return as clubs agree deal for player

United have agreed to sell Blind for a £14.1million fee that could rise to £18.5million

Manchester United have agreed to sell Daley Blind back to Ajax for a fee of £14.1million that could eventually rise to £18.5million.

Blind joined United from the Eredivisie club for £13.8million in 2014 when fellow Dutchman Louis van Gaal was the Red Devils manager.

 Blind's last appearance for United came against Watford on the final day of the 2017/18 season

He was a regular under Van Gaal largely due to his versatility as a midfielder and a defender but Blind fell down the pecking order after Jose Mourinho arrived at Old Trafford.

The 28-year-old played in the 2016 FA Cup final and the following year's Europa League final victory over Ajax.

Blind is one of a number of names expected to leave United as Mourinho plots a squad overhaul ahead of the 2018/19 season.
