That is according to The Times, who claim Championship clubs Fulham, Blackburn, Burnley and Wolves have all had loan moves knocked back.

The 20-year-old has only made a handful of appearances for United this season, starting just three Premier League outings so far.

 

The Belfast Telegraph reported last month Northern Ireland international wants a move away from Old Trafford in a bid to secure first-team football ahead of Euro 16.

But Louis van Gaal has no intention of letting the centre-half leave on a temporary deal as he's keen to keep him as cover for his first-team squad.

The United boss is already without injured defenders Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw and Antonio Valencia.

Van Gaal was forced to hand McNair his senior debut last term due to a number of injuries to key players and featured 16 times in the Premier League.
