\"\"Ashley Young is on the verge of joining Inter Milan after Manchester United agreed a $1.66m fee with the Serie A club.<\/p>\n

The deal for the 34-year-old England international is subject to a medical, scheduled to take place in Milan on Friday, and the agreement of personal terms.<\/p>\n

The United club captain was out of contract in the summer, but Inter boss Antonio Conte was keen to tie up the deal during this month\u2019s transfer window.<\/p>\n

Young has made 18 appearances for United this season, scoring once against AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League.<\/p>\n

But the versatile defender has not featured since the FA Cup third-round tie at Wolves on January 4, missing the last three games as his future became increasingly uncertain.<\/p>\n

Stevenage-born Young, who has won 39 England caps, began his career at Watford and joined United from Aston Villa for $22million in June 2011.<\/p>\n

He made 261 appearances for the Red Devils, scoring 19 goals.<\/p>\n

Young won a Premier League winner\u2019s medal in 2012-13, in Alex Ferguson\u2019s final season as United manager.<\/p>\n

He also picked up winner\u2019s medals in the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League.<\/p>\n

Inter, who signed Romelu Lukaku from United last August and also have Alexis Sanchez on loan from the Red Devils, are second in Serie A, two points adrift of Juventus.<\/p>\n
