Kieran Trippier hopes he has a future at Manchester City.
The England U20 fullback has spent the past month on-loan at Barnsley.
He told City's website: "I'm looking forward to coming back but if another opportunity to go out on loan came up I'd be happy to take it if the manager felt it would help me to continue to improve.
"Of course, my main aim is to break into City's first team and I think Roberto Mancini has already shown that he's not afraid to give younger players a chance if he thinks they are ready."
