Timothy Fosu-Mensah
The versatile teenager is yet to make a single league appearance this season in the Premier League and hasn’t played 90 minutes in both of his Europa League and EFL features.
The Dutch youngster is close to putting pen to paper for a new deal and was retained by Jose in the summer while a few of his fellow Academy graduates were sent on loan. He is currently ahead of Darmian in the pecking order as he is right behind Valencia.
However, with Coleman a top January target for Mourinho, Timothy’s playing time will be drastically reduced if the Everton man or another right back arrives. He’d do fine playing regularly at an English topflight side or even in the Championships, it’s all about the experience here.
Phil Jones
Perennial injury-stricken England international Jones has made just 10 league appearances since the start of last season.
Although he is set to return later this month having been missing in action for months due to a knee ligament injury, chances are that his Manchester United future is not guaranteed.
Perhaps a loan move by January to get frequent playing time after he returns to full fitness will help him get back to his best. Jones could do with a lot of football at this stage of his injury-laden career.
