Anders Lindegaard is ready to quit Manchester United.

Ekstra Bladet says Lindegaard has held crunch talks with manager Louis van Gaal and he will not be making inroads into the first team.

The report adds that United have told him he can leave on a free transfer despite having a year left to run on his contract.

The 31-year-old has spent most of his time playing second fiddle to David De Gea since moving to Old Trafford in 2010.
