And then he was pictured arriving in Istanbul.
He will undergo a medical before completing his move to the Super Lig giants.
United have agreed a deal in principle to sell midfielder Fred to Turkish club Fenerbahce, the club has confirmed.
The Brazil international is set to join the Turkish Super Lig side for a fee of around £15 million, subject to a medical, agreeing personal terms and receiving international clearance.

Fred, 30, joined United from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2018 and made 213 appearances for the club, scoring 14 goals.
He was a regular in the first team under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but fell out of favor under Ralf Rangnick and new manager Erik ten Hag.
The Turkish club are looking to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season and Fred’s arrival will be a major coup. He will add energy and creativity to the midfield, and he will be a key player for Fenerbahce in their quest to win trophies.
The deal is expected to be finalized in the coming days, he will undergo a medical today. He will then sign a contract with Fenerbahce and be unveiled in a signing ceremony.
