Dan Gore in Advanced Talks to Join Luton Town on Loan
Manchester United midfielder Dan Gore is currently in advanced negotiations to join League One club Luton Town on loan. The 21-year-old player spent the previous season at Rotherham, where he made 34 appearances.
Although Gore participated in the pre-season training under coach Michael Carrick, the club’s strategy had always envisioned him spending the upcoming season away from Old Trafford. Several options were available to him, but reports suggest that the opportunity to work with Jack Wilshere, who played a similar role during his career, heavily influenced Gore’s decision, although an agreement has yet to be finalized.
In related news, the future of 19-year-old left-back Harry Amass remains uncertain. He was part of the United squad throughout pre-season as a backup to Luke Shaw but did not feature in the opening Premier League match against Hull City. Instead, he took to the field with the Premier League 2 team, contributing to a 5-0 victory over Ipswich on Monday.
Initially, there were expectations that Amass would leave United either on loan or permanently; however, no final decision has been reached regarding his status.
Additionally, the situation appears similar for fellow left-back Diego Leon. Despite earning his first full cap for Paraguay last season, the 19-year-old has yet to break into the first-team squad and was overlooked in favor of Amass for pre-season activities. Leon is reportedly interested in a loan move, but no arrangements have been established as of now.

The 21-year-old had a number of options, but it is thought working with Jack Wilshere, who played in a similar position, has been a key factor in Gore’s choice, although a deal is still to be agreed.
Meanwhile, it is understood no final decision has been made around the short-term future of left-back Harry Amass.
The 19-year-old was around United’s squad for all pre-season as back-up to Luke Shaw, but was not included for the opening Premier League game against Hull City and instead was on Premier League 2 duty in the 5-0 win over Ipswich on Monday.
It had been expected Amass would leave United, either on loan or permanently. However, his future is still undecided.

The same is also thought to be true of another left-back, Diego Leon.
Although he earned his first full cap for Paraguay last season, the 19-year-old did not force his way into the first-team picture, and it seemed telling Amass was chosen ahead of him for first-team duties in pre-season.
It is understood Leon would like a loan move, but as yet, nothing has been agreed.
