Manchester United youth coach Tommy Martin has revealed that he expects Will Keane to be involved with the club's first team following his return from Preston North End.
The 22-year-old was recalled from his spell at Deepdale last week as United cut his season-long loan short.
Keane made his United return for the Under-21 side during a 3-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur Under-21s on Monday night, but with Louis van Gaal currently struggling for strikers, Martin expects Keane to have a role with the senior side.
"I think that's the idea of him coming back from Preston, that hopefully he'll be involved with the first team more than the Under-21s," Martin is quoted as saying by PA.
Keane scored two goals in 22 matches during his spell in the Championship with Preston.
