Manchester United defender Teden Mengi admits he's open to a January loan move.

The centre-back has returned from injury and helped the Under-21s progress in the Papa Johns Trophy, thanks to a penalty shootout triumph against Wolves on Tuesday night.

"Every game, I'm feeling fitter, stronger, sharper," he told club media, following the game at Wolves.

"So yeah, I think I'm standing myself in good stead for January, if the option comes up for me to get an opportunity to go out on loan and impress and get some more experience, then I'll take it."
