Definitely destined for an obscure Turkish team. I never saw any improvement in him from his first time with us. His brother is a good agent getting Utd to keep offering him new contracts.

Man Utd seem to have a bit of a weird policy of extending contracts of players they don't need, just so they don't leave for free. But nobody wants to buy them, and they're on more there than they'd get anywhere else so they won't leave, and they're stuck with them.

It's a weird one with Axel. He genuinely looked the part for us a few seasons ago.  I was sad to see him go back to ManU but as we all envisaged he is used only on the rare occasion.  His form suffers, he comes back to us and looks nowhere near the player he once was.  Some players need to be playing continually to maintain and improve their form. It's one of the perils of being at a 'big club'.

With no transfer fee, most likely he'll get a decent contract off one of the sides promoted to the PL for next season or perhaps from a side that just escapes relegation from the PL.

He's not great, though would be an upgrade on Jansson at Brentford for example ... and less of a dick IMO.
