The news comes as a blow for Manchester United , who had been considering Berge, 26, among their midfield targets .

It also leaves Man Utd midfielder Scott McTominay in transfer limbo.

Fulham have submitted a number of bids for the Scotland star this summer .

But United have been determined to keep hold of him, despite the midfielder not being a first-choice for Erik ten Hag .

SunSport reported earlier that McTominay is not short of interest should he want to leave .

Both Crystal Palace and Brighton are both keen on the Scot and United would cash-in for the right price.

United are thought to be holding out for up to £35m for the player who they still rate highly.
