Manchester United 1-1 West Ham match highlights and reaction
Man Utd have some big decisions to make ahead of the January transfer window next month.
The Manchester United youngster has shone on loan at Wednesday this campaign and started all 14 league matches since he joined in the final days of the summer window. Although Amass joined on an initial season-long loan, it technically expires on January 5 due to a break clause, and United must decide whether he should remain at Hillsborough or return to Manchester and potentially join another club for the second half of the season.
United agreed to cover the costs of Amass' loan in exchange for guaranteed game time, but could allow him to join another Championship club that would offer both game time and a financial incentive.

There could be something with the contract between Harry and Manchester United, but let’s see what happens. I think we will find a solution - I really hope.”
