Manchester United defender Charlie Wellens has ended his loan with Oldham Athletic.
Wellens, who celebrated his 20th birthday this month, signed for National League club Oldham on a four-month loan deal, which ran until 8 January 2023, at the start of September but he's already returned to United ahead of that expiry date.
Oldham have four matches before 8 January but Wellens was not receiving the minutes United staff hoped he would, says the Manchester Evening News.
The versatile right-back made just four starts for Oldham and played a total of 319 minutes in the league this season.
He's now returned to the academy and he made an appearance from the bench for the Under-21s against PSV on Monday.
