Sir Alex Ferguson has insisted that youngsters Danny Welbeck, Tom Cleverley and Federico Macheda all have a future at Manchester United despite spending the season away from the club.

Welbeck who is on-loan at Sunderland has admitted he is uncertain where his future lies having impressed for the Black Cats this season scoring six times. Meanwhile Cleverley has  shone at Wigan despite the Latics battling relegation this season, while Macheda is currently in his native Italy with Sampdoria.

When asked about the three players’ prospects Ferguson told the club’s official website: “They will come back into the first-team squad and they will get plenty of games next season.”

The United boss admitted he will always give players the opportunity to go out on loan to get more playing time and the Scot believes this experience will benefit the players when they return so they can be part of his squad immediately.

Ferguson added: “They are part of the band of young players coming through at this club. They will all come back in.

“At that point, we will then review our squad because that’s the important thing. But we will always put players out on loan.

“Tom Cleverley has done very well, particularly in his spell at Watford and then at Wigan. He has improved in each case and he is going to be a top player.

“Danny Welbeck has been fantastic too, it’s just unfortunate that he picked up a bad injury. But they will all be ready for next year.”
