King in limbo over Man Utd future after Preston loan

Manchester United teenager Josh King is unsure what the future will hold when his three-month loan at Preston comes to an end. The striker has made six appearances for Darren Ferguson's Preston since signing on a temporary basis in August.

"I didn't think I'd be going out on loan this early, I thought maybe it might happen after Christmas," the 18 year old told the Lancashire Evening Post.

"When the boss at United told me Preston wanted to take me on loan, it was a bit of a surprise. But I'm glad I came here, I'm enjoying it.

"I'm on a three-month youth loan as it stands, I don't know what is going to happen after that.

"United are monitoring me here, I still go back there sometimes to do a bit of extra finishing work with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who coaches the reserves."
