Reds unveil airline deal
-
MANCHESTER UNITED starlet Rodrigo Possebon has returned from his ill-fated loan spell at Braga - after allegedly going AWOL seven times.
The midfielder endured a torrid six months with the Portuguese club and, following a string of poor performances, it was claimed he repeatedly failed to turn up for training.
Braga have sent Possebon, 20, back to Old Trafford but boss Alex Ferguson is open to more loan offers for him.
The Brazilian is highly-regarded at United but Fergie wants to send him out again so he can gain first-team experience.
Newcastle were close to signing Possebon before he joined Braga in July and Toon boss Chris Hughton is still keen.

Wah, disciplinary issues at such a young age? Surely if Fergie is keen on keeping him should control this young player.
