Manchester United weigh up loan move for Nick Powell
MANCHESTER UNITED are contemplating whether to loan out Nick Powell next season.
Powell, who scored a stunning goal for Crewe in their League Two play-off final win last season against Cheltenham, has become increasingly marginalised at Old Trafford.
Sir Alex Ferguson wants to loan him out to give him some more game time to help with his development.
Football site Goal.com ascertains Wigan and Bolton are possible destinations for Powell.
Wigan already have Angelo Henriquez on loan and they could be a more attractive proposition for Powell if they were to stay up in the Premier League.
United loaned out Tom Cleverley to the Latics in the 2010/11 season, and improved immeasurably when he returned.
Powell scored for United in their 4-0 win over Wigan in September.
