Mame Biram Diouf and Joshua King will further their football education with loan deals away from Old Trafford.

Senegalese striker Diouf has completed a season-long agreement to join Sam Allardyce's Blackburn Rovers, while Norwegian youngster King has signed up with Preston North End til mid-November.

King joins up with fellow United loanee Matty James, who is spending the entirety of 2010/2011 at Deepdale, and the pair could both feature for Darren Ferguson's side today against Doncaster in the Championship.

Diouf could also go straight into action for his new side, in Blackburn's pre-season friendlies against Hearts today and Celtic on Sunday.

Sunderland manager Steve Bruce has also confirmed that he is aiming to take another United striker, Danny Welbeck, on loan for the entire season.

Giving them the opportunity to play regularly against top class Premiership opposition, which will mean they can gain the experience that all our young prospects will need if they are to succeed at Old Trafford.
It's all 'part and parcel' of them serving their apprenticeship.
A learning curve that will give them the chance to prove themselves (or not) against the 'Big Boys' .... and at no risk to ourselves (our campaign, that is).

Yep it makes good sense to put them out on loan if the chances of playing in the 1st team are slim, they gain experience and get the chance to prove that they are good enough, probably saves the club money too Wink

Agree with Rattylad. Experience is the must if they are allowed to play like this they will have some experience and they can learn from their error and can improve their performance in next game.
