The 17-year-old moved to the Red Devils from Sheffield United but is set to make a return to Yorkshire after dropping down the pecking order in the Manchester United Under-18s. The Manchester Evening News report that the attack-minded midfielder has been tracked by Leeds since before the winter transfer window opened. Now a deal is close to being agreed, with Ibrovic-Fletcher set to go into the academy set-up at Elland Road. Ibrovic-Fletcher joins a number of Manchester United academy talents in leaving the club on transfer deadline day, although others are departing on loan.
