WELCOME BACK

United have confirmed the return of the popular Rene Meulensteen to the club.

After five years at Old Trafford, the Dutchman left to take over Brondby.

However, things did not work out as he hoped and he left earlier this month.

Ferguson acted quickly in re-signing Meulensteen - who is now the technical skills development coach.

"We are delighted to have Rene rejoining us," Ferguson told the club's website.

"He had an unfortunate spell at Brondby, but he was a fantastic coach for us for five years.

"I am glad he will continue to develop the technical ability of all footballers at the club."
