Manchester United expecting Charlie Savage loan exit
Man Utd expect to send the academy youngster out on loan in the final full week of the January transfer window.
Manchester United are expecting to send Charlie Savage out on loan before the January transfer window closes.
The 19-year-old has made one senior appearance during his playing career and is keen to carry on his development with a loan spell in the second half of the season.
The Manchester Evening News understands all parties are in agreement that a loan move would be beneficial to Savage's progress and that talks are ongoing to try and find him a new temporary club.

Savage has been attracting Football League interest, and it is understood that United would like to send him out to a League One club if possible.
The teenager, son of Robbie, made his only first-team appearance for United as a late substitute in the Champions League dead rubber against Young Boys in December 2021.
Savage was also named on the bench for Ralf Rangnick’s final game in charge, a 1-0 defeat by Crystal Palace on the final day of last season, and has not featured in a competitive match day squad under Erik ten Hag.
He has caught the eye of the current United manager though, and impressed alongside Zidane Iqbal during pre-season.
Savage also featured from the bench in both of United’s winter friendlies against La Liga sides Cadiz and Real Betis during last month’s training camp in Spain.
