Club Brugge have failed to register Manchester United loan signing Tahith Chong for the Europa League.

Club Brugge coach Philippe Clement had to choose between Chong and Nabil Dirar and decided to go with the latter.

The Belgians are to face Dynamo Kiev in the round of 32 this month.

Chong signed for Club Brugge on-loan to the end of the season last week after cutting short his time with Werder Bremen.

The winger scored on debut in the Belgian Cup defeat of Olsa Brakel on Wednesday night.
