George Tanner: Manchester United defender joins Salford on loan

Salford City have signed Manchester United defender George Tanner on loan for the rest of the season.

The deal follows the 20-year-old right-back's recall from a loan spell at fellow League Two side Morecambe, where he made 29 appearances.

Tanner has played for Manchester United at under-18 level through to under-23s.

"League Two is completely different to under-23s football so I'm glad I've experienced it and it sets me in good stead for the future," he said.
