Man
United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has kept the ‘promise’ he made in March
to the club’s forward, Tahith Chong.
Chong
is expected to join German side Werder Bremen on a two-season loan from Man United
this summer.
He
recently rejected interest from several clubs across Europe to extend his
contract at Man United until 2022.
The
20-year-old is rated high at Old Trafford but has found opportunities difficult
to come by.
The
Dutch youngster made just 12 first-team appearances during this season.
However,
Solskjaer then promised Chong in March that he would be permitted to leave Old
Trafford on loan so as to aid his development, according to Chong’s agent,
Erkan Alkan.
“Mr
Solskjaer kept his promise from March and told Tahith that he could leave the
club,” Alkan told Bild.
“The boy really wants to go to Werder. He
wants to be part of the preparation as soon as possible so that he can quickly
find his way around.”
