Manchester United are expected to lose at least one more first-team star this summer after he agreed personal terms with a new club, according to the Daily Mail.
The Red Devils are planning a major overhaul of their squad during the upcoming summer transfer window, with a new midfield expected to arrive as a priority, while left-back, left-wing and potentially more understood to be under consideration.
However, there are also expected to be a number of exits at Old Trafford, including star midfielder Casemiro, who is out of contract this summer, and now another player has found an agreement to move on.
Altay Bayindir Agrees Move to Leave Man Utd

According to the Daily Mail, Man Utd's second-choice goalkeeper Altay Bayindir has agreed personal terms over a move away from the club this summer.
Described as 'very fast', the Turkey international started the season as the number one goalkeeper before losing his place to Senne Lammens. He hasn't featured for the club in any competition since September, and has made just 17 appearances for the club since joining back in 2023.
Now, he is looking to play more regularly elsewhere, and has agreed personal terms with Besiktas over a return to Turkey for the summer.
A deal for Bayindir to join Besiktas in January was close, before United decided to reject a late bid rather than make changes to an already paper-thin squad at a key point in the season.
But a deal is expected to go through this summer, with United not expected to stand in his way and a transfer fee not expected to be an issue considering they paid just over £4m for him.
Goalkeeper Revamp Set for Man Utd

The goalkeeper department was seen as a key area to strengthen last season, and the deal to bring in Senne Lammens now looks to be on of the best, with the position seemingly set for several seasons to come.
But with Tom Heaton on the verge of retirement, a new number two and potentially number three will be needed too. Radek Vitek has been tipped to return and compete for a role, but a more experienced option could be ideal.
GIVEMESPORT asked ChatGPT who a good signing would be to be backup to Lammens and provide competition, and this was its response:
Yann Sommer – Experienced, reliable, ideal short-term cover
Illan Meslier – Younger option; Premier League experience, upside
Rui Patrício – Cheap/free veteran depth, dependable
