Luton boss Edwards has message for Chong, Mengi ahead of Man Utd return

Luton Town boss Rob Edwards has told his former Manchester United players to focus on their football this weekend.

Tahith Chong and Teden Mengi are in line to make their returns to Old Trafford with the Hatters.

"We've got them at our football club now," Edwards said when asked about Mengi and Chong returning to United.

"Their history is their history and they had amazing upbringings at Manchester United. They've worked with some fantastic coaches and brilliant players and we're hopefully now going to see their best years with us.

"I'm sure they're both looking forward to it. We're trying to make it too much of an emotional occasion, they don't have to do anything they haven't been doing before. They've been great for us.

"They're brilliant people and they've had a positive impact for us, so the big message from me is don't do anything special just because it's Manchester United and your former club.

"I know it's a big occasion for them, but go enjoy it and keep doing what they've been doing."
