The England Under-19 international, who has been with United since the age of 10, has featured twice for our first-team having made his debut in 2019.
There will now be an opportunity for the right-back to gain further experience in the Championship, continuing his progress in a new environment with the Cherries.
Scott Parker’s side are top of the league table after 25 games played. Laird will be looking to help Bournemouth in their bid to get promoted and secure a return to the Premier League.
Everybody at United would like to wish Ethan the best of luck for the second half of the season as we follow his progress at the Vitality Stadium.
