Manchester United striker Chido Obi is set to join Eredivisie outfit Willem II on loan for the ongoing campaign.
The 19-year-old joined the Red Devils from Arsenal two years ago and had a good breakthrough season with eight appearances in 2024/25.
However, he did not make a single appearance in the last campaign, and his situation seems unlikely to improve in the current season either.
Hence, a loan exit was always a likely solution and Obi will now spend the season with Willem II, who recently secured top-flight promotion.
The Dutch outfit have promised regular playing time for the young striker, which is essential for him to become a key player for United in future.
United believe Obi can fulfil his immense potential and he is being seen as a possible replacement for Joshua Zirkzee at the end of the season.
Zirkzee was the subject of a loan offer from Everton on deadline day, but a deal did not materialise before the window closed at 11pm BST.
