Former Manchester United youngster Charlie Savage has been left in limbo at Reading this season.

The talented academy graduate joined the League One club last month.

However, Savage may not be able to play right away, as the EFL have put a transfer embargo on Reading.

Charlie's father, Robbie Savage, stated on BBC's Six-0-Six phone-in: “I'm very worried about the mental well-being of a young boy who took a brave decision, the biggest gamble of his life, to leave Manchester United - and now he's not able to play.

“After signing for Reading, he was allowed to train and play in friendlies, but now he can't. How has that happened?"
