Man United to send players on loan in January

“We’ll plan it out and we’ve identified four or five who might be going out in January. Obviously, our first-team manager has a say,” he said.

“Three lads could have possibly gone on loan – Angel Gomes, Tahith Chong and James Garner – but he wanted to keep them here and have a look at them on tour.

“So a decision will be made, no doubt, for January as well. Hopefully, all three will be in the first team and not going anywhere.”

Those are the words of Les Parry, the academy player performance manager at Manchester United. The Red Devils are looking towards the future and more specifically January, with the expectation being that they will rely on their top stars whilst sending their lesser names out on loan in order to give them more first team opportunities.

This comes after a poor start to the new Premier League campaign by Solskjaer’s men.
