Erik ten Hag and Paul Scholes on same page as Man Utd boss makes ambitious transfer call

Paul Scholes appears to have got his wish with Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag not planning to make Marcel Sabitzer's loan at Old Trafford a permanent deal.

The Austrian joined the Red Devils from German giants Bayern Munich on loan in January after Christian Eriksen suffered an ankle injury. There was no option to make the move permanent inserted into his contract, though that doesn't mean United couldn't have tried to negotiate a deal with the Bavarians if Sabitzer had made a stellar contribution.

Ultimately, the 29-year-old has fallen short in that regard and as a result United have no desire to keep him at the club next term. Sabitzer will bid farewell having played 18 times for the club, scoring three goals in the process.
