Manchester United midfielder Gabriel Obertan admits he is still in the dark about a loan move to Lille for next season.

Talk in France has suggested that the 22-year-old will soon join up with Rudi Garcia’s men on a season-long loan deal having failed to yet make the breakthrough at Old Trafford.

But Obertan himself can neither confirm or deny the reports and is unsure where his future lies.



"I will not be loaned to Lille, for now", Obertan told France Football.

"I should know if Manchester wants to loan me, and if they want to [loan me] to Lille. For now, I do not know."

Obertan featured just ten times for United last season and has struggled to force his way into Sir Alex Ferguson’s first team since joining from Bordeaux in 2009.

The Frenchman is under contract at Old Trafford until 2013.
