Facundo Pellistri has hinted at another loan move after his disappointing spell away from Manchester United at Alaves last season.
Pellistri would end up making 21 appearances in La Liga while at the club. However, many of these came as part of cameo appearances off the bench.
It was not an ideal time away from the club for the 20-year-old, but he has been given the chance to impress Erik ten Hag after he was named in the Dutchman's 31-man squad for the pre-season tour.

Speaking to Ovacion, the Uruguayan forward appeared to hint that he will move away from United again this summer. "Right now, I want to feel good again after the holidays, well trained, more than anything because this year is very important both at club and national team level," he explained.
"You have to be ready for everything and prepare well. I want to have the maximum continuity of minutes to try to arrive well.
"I’m not looking for a particular league. It’s easy to say ‘earn minutes’ because nobody promises them to you, and you have to earn them.
"It’s a complicated search, but I’m going to try to find the best option to play, show myself and feel good."
Pellistri has been included in Uruguay's national team previously and will be hoping to show off his talents in a World Cup year. The United youngster went on to explain his frustrations with the spell in Spain last season.
"I didn’t leave Alaves very happy, because I hardly played in any games," he continued. "I left with a wonderful club, a wonderful group of people, a wonderful medical team and a wonderful staff. In that sense, even though it was complicated in terms of football, that whole period in Vitoria was wonderful.
"They never gave me a reason, but well? Every manager is different.
"Maybe they liked different things to what I could give them, and that’s totally respectable. It’s up to the coach to decide.
"I always gave my best, I trained 100 per cent, and I was ready to play. The balance is negative. I would have liked to play more."
