Manchester United midfielder Matty Willock joins Utrecht on loan

Manchester United loan young midfielder Matty Willock to FC Utrecht for the 2017-18 season.

Manchester United have announced that young midfielder Matty Willock has signed for FC Utrecht on a season-long loan.

The 21-year-old has been part of the North-West club since 2012 when he joined from Arsenal's youth ranks, and he is yet to make a first-team appearance for the Red Devils.

Last season, though, Willock trained with Jose Mourinho's squad for the final few months of the campaign, and was named on the bench for two Premier League games.

In order to gain more experience, the midfielder has been sent to play in the Eredivisie this season.

"Matty is a versatile midfielder who played for Manchester United over the past few years and enjoyed a part of his football training at Arsenal," Goal.com quotes Utrecht boss Erik ten Hag as saying.

"In Manchester he has not yet managed to step up to the first team, but we are confident having seen him many times in the Premier League youth teams play to promise that he can add value to Utrecht."

Football runs in the family as Willock's brothers Joe and Chris play for Arsenal and Benfica respectively.
