Manchester United youngster Tahith Chong has joined Bundesliga side Werder Bremen on loan for the 2020-21 season.
The 20-year-old winger, who joined United s academy from Feyenoord in 2016, has been highly rated by the club ever since but has failed to establish himself in the first team.
When Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was hired – initially on an interim basis – in December 2018, Chong was seen as one of the young players most likely to make the step up to the senior side as a regular.
However, he has made only 16 appearances in all competitions and has yet to feature from the start in the Premier League.
Chong signed a new contract in March to keep him at the club until 2022, with the option to extend his stay for a further year.
His loan to Werder should finally give Chong the opportunity to play regular first-team football and at top-flight level.
Werder preserved their status as a Bundesliga club in the relegation/promotion play-off against Heidenheim last month.
Excited to join for the season! Let’s get to work
