KASPER Schmeichel has returned to City after revealing his regret that his final spell at Bury has ended.
The 'keeper, son of former United legend Peter, became a folk hero at Gigg Lane after a string of loans with the League Two club.
But Bury cannot keep the gifted Dane any more after his final spell expired following Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Swindon Town.
"I'm very disappointed to be going," Kasper told M.E.N. Sport. "I've been enjoying playing regular first-team football at a place where I really like being.
"It's a bit of a kick in the teeth, but what can you do? The rules say I have to go back now."

Those sentiments are echoed by Bury boss Chris Casper, who admits that the popular 20-year-old will be missed.
"Kasper hasn't let us down once; he's been fantastic, and I'd like to say thanks," said Casper.
"He's got passion, belief in himself and tremendous skill and technique.
"But we had to deal with the situation and I think we have done very well in getting Andy Warrington in.
"It's a really good move for us. He has good experience, good quality and we can play him in the FA Cup."
Do you think Kasper has the quality to become a top-flight goalkeeper? Have your say.

No defenitely not! He's livin off his bog-average father's reputation, forget it kid, maybe you could take up dancing!
Watched him a few time at Bury and he seems a fine goallie to me. It will be interesting to see how he and Hart will challenge eachother for the no 1 spot in a couple of years.
This lad is nowhere near good enough for the top filght, he seems to strangely lack a bit in stature too. Sentiment does not work in football. Sell him to Bury if he wants to be there so much. Does anyone think that by implication, the 'at a place i really enjoy being', is a sideways swipe at City.
i have seen kaspar a good number of times now and think he is a very good goalkeeper. Certainly the best at Bury since Kenny. he has kept a very average team in many many games. outstanding at Notts County and Rochdale this year, were he made two top drawer saves and never bottled it under pressure. I do not agree he is living off his father's reputation as he has proven otherwise to me.
