Manchester United prospect Joe Hugill is heading out for a loan spell this winter.

The 20-year-old is ready to play regularly and will hope to do so at Burton Albion.

Per The Sun, United see Hugill as someone who must develop to show he is first team material.

He has not made his senior debut for the Red Devils as yet, despite being on the bench in a few games.

He was not brought on during their recent FA Cup win against Wigan Athletic, hinting at a possible loan exit.

If he were to play for United in the cup, then he would be ineligible to do so for other teams this season.
