Meanwhile, fellow youngster D'Mani Mellor announced on Instagram that he has left United.
Mellor wrote: "Making a debut for Manchester United is something that only a small number of people have the honour to say that they have achieved.
"There are so many people that I have to thank for their support along the way.
"Many have become my closest friends throughout my time here."
Mellor spent time on loan at Salford in 2021-22, making three appearances in Sky Bet League Two, and has featured once for United's first team during his time.
