Man Utd to recall Possebon from Braga
Manchester United midfielder Rodrigo Possebon is expected to end his loan with Portugal's Braga in January.
A Bola says Possebon is likely to return to United when the winter market opens in the New Year.
The Brazilian has failed to establish himself as a regular starter at Braga, but United maintain faith in the youngster. United boss Sir Alex Ferguson wants to bring Possebon back ahead of loaning him to a Championship club for the second-half of the season.

'This is not the first time that clubs have begged to take young Man U players on loan for experience, only to then break the agreement by not playing them.'
erm yeah that's all very well but if the player is clearly cr&p in training and doesn't look good enough for the 1st team then he's not going to get played whether he's at Braga, Man U or in the championship.
Braga are top in Portugal and have won 8 out of 10 - clearly challenging for the title is their main priority over giving some kid a bit of playing time. Possebon's blatantly another Michael Twiss or Luke Chadwick.
He should come back in2 d team coz he's got all it takes 2 make it in2 d 1st team. Also, heard of imminent Nani & Foster departures?
I really hope the lad can come back to a point where he can show us the kind of presence and levelheadedness that was on show prior to the dreadful injury he suffered a year or so ago. He seemed to have a calmness and vision well beyond his years, and it would be a shame if the mental scars left over from the injury robbed him of the chance to fulfill his promise. I really thought he looked the goods and was one for the future at United.
