Surprisingly, Man Utd do not have a load of impressive young players out on loan this season. The best of the bunch is arguably Hugill, who is on loan at Wigan Athletic in League One and has scored three in eight for his temporary club.
Young goalkeeper Radek Vitek is worth an honourable mention. He would have been our pick but has tore his ACL, so he is hardly one to watch this year; he will be the one doing the watching unfortunately.
Newcastle United: Harrison Ashby
The signing of Ashby has been completely pointless so far but a season in the Championship with QPR could be perfect. That is if he actually plays. So far, his only minutes came in the Carabao Cup defeat to London rivals Crystal Palace.
Nottingham Forest: Marko Stamenic
Slim pickings for the third team in a row. New Zealand international Stamenic is on loan at, you guessed it, Olympiacos. He can play anywhere through the middle and has featured four times in the Greek top flight so far this campaign.
Under contract until 2029, Forest must highly rate the 22-year-old midfielder.
Southampton: Shea Charles
It was very difficult choosing between Charles and Sam Edozie – who is at Anderlecht in Belgium – but we have gone with the former in this instance.
Northern Ireland international Charles is a highly-rated deep-lying midfielder who joined Southampton from Manchester City for around £10m last summer and made 38 appearances in his first season at St Mary’s.
He is back in the Championship, striving for improvement at Sheffield Wednesday and it is going well so far. He has not been outstanding but in only two league appearances, has done enough to show that he can make Wednesday a better team.
Tottenham: Alfie Devine
Spurs have some fantastic teenagers on their hands, from Lucas Bergvall to Ashley Phillips. Like the latter, Devine, Dane Scarlett and Alejo Veliz are out on loan this term.
The most promising young player Spurs have loaned out is Devine. The 20-year-old playmaker started well on loan at Plymouth Argyle in the second half of 23/24 but gradually faded away before returning to his parent club. A fresh opportunity in Belgium is upon him, with Westerlo bringing him in.
Devine came off the bench at half time to make his debut at Anderlecht and then played the full 90 in the home defeat to Antwerp.
Bryan Gil is 23 and out on loan as well, for what it’s worth. We are absolutely not having him though.

Question 1
James Maddison cost £40m. Was the fee Tottenham paid for Heung-min Son higher or lower?

West Ham: George Earthy
At Bristol City for the year, young Earthy has not featured in his side’s last three Championship matches but is highly rated at West Ham.
Wolves: Hugo Bueno
Like with Gil at Tottenham, we are not having Fabio Silva here. No chance.
Perhaps it is the fatigue of getting to team 20 that has seen us snub him and Ki-Jana Hoever, with Bueno very nearly suffering from the same fate.
Feyenoord are a very handy side and that is where the Spaniard is for the season. He registered an assist in his only Eredivisie appearance and has missed the other three through injury. Wolves will probably be hoping he can increase his value for a sale at the end of the season.
