Manchester United have welcomed a familiar face back to Carrington as Teden Mengi has returned to the club, bringing an end to his loan spell with Birmingham City slightly ahead of schedule.
The promising centre-back, 20, joined the Blues for the second half of the season in January having made just one appearance for United in the months leading up to that point. Mengi played 10 games for Birmingham but a minor injury means he has arrived back at his parent club to rehabilitate.
The Manchester native would not have been ready in time for Saturday's final Championship clash against Blackburn Rovers but could feature in United's trip to Crystal Palace on the last day of the Premier League season later in May. A statement on the Red Devils' official website reads: "The second-city club have kindly given permission for Teden to remain training with United, with our season not ending until 22 May, in order to regain full fitness."
