Danny Welbeck, the talented Brighton striker, has been linked with a surprise return to his former club Manchester United. However, the 33-year-old has played down these rumors and is focused on his current team's success. Welbeck has been in excellent form this season, scoring an impressive six goals in the Premier League so far.
Welbeck first came to United through their academy and went on to make 142 appearances for the first team. However, in 2014, he was sold to Arsenal for £16 million. Recently, there have been reports that United's manager Erik ten Hag is interested in bringing Welbeck back to Old Trafford, especially with the team looking to sign a new striker in the upcoming summer transfer window.
When asked about the possibility of a return to United, Welbeck stated in an interview with The Times that it's all speculation and there's always going to be that link because of his history with the club. However, he is solely focusing on his performance and leaving the rest to take care of itself.
Last month, former United player Gary Neville expressed his opinion that the club should never have sold Welbeck in the first place. He also praised Welbeck's current form, stating that he is in better shape than any of the current United front players. Neville believes that Welbeck was an asset that should have been kept in the squad, especially when you consider the need for multiple strikers on the team.
It's clear that Welbeck's skills and abilities are being recognized and appreciated, not just by fans, but also by former players and managers. While there may be speculation about a potential return to United, Welbeck remains focused on his current team and their success. As for United, they will have to decide if they made a mistake in letting Welbeck go and if they should try to bring him back.
