The pair from United’s u21 side will head to London Road in an effort to bolster Darren Ferguson’s chances of staying in the Championship.
A number of clubs had enquired about the pair with Blackburn and Bristol City in particular sniffing around Wootton, but it is expected that an announcement for the pair’s move will be made imminently.
They join Bebe, Robbie Brady and Joshua King in heading out of Old Trafford, although like Bebe, their moves will only be to the end of the season.
