While Solskjaer is said to have blocked a loan offer for the full-back from Southampton in the summer, The Telegraph now report Ralph Hasenhuttl is keen to make a fresh approach in the new year as he seeks to bring in fresh competition for Kyle Walker-Peters and Ryan Bertrand. Williams' ability to play on either side of the defence is thought to appeal to the south coast club, who would likely be able to offer him more minutes than he will get at Old Trafford in the months ahead.
Solskjaer's stance is said to have softened, and the Norwegian could allow him to depart for the second half of the season.
