Dad urging Savage to return to Man Utd for next career step

Manchester United youngster Charlie Savage will head back to the club this summer.

The talented 20-year-old spent several months on loan at Forest Green Rovers in League One.

While Savage has a long way to go to push for a first team spot, he is hoping for a chance to impress in pre-season.

The son of former footballer Robbie Savage, Charlie enjoyed his time with Rovers, despite their relegation to League Two.

His father Robbie tweeted: "Fifteen games in League One, your first senior goal, great experience. Thank you Forest Green, a fantastic club. Now back to Man United."

Charlie himself wrote: "My time on loan at Forest Green comes to an end today. I would like to thank Duncan Ferguson especially and all of the staff at the club for helping me so much during my time here.

“I would also like to thank the fans for welcoming me and for their amazing support throughout."
