The England international has revealed Sir Alex Ferguson promised him the opportunities to prove he can become a first-team regular at Old Trafford next season.
The 20-year-old, who scored on both his Premier League and FA Cup debuts, feels he is ready to face the challenge after learning from his loan experience at Sunderland last season.
"The manager said I'll get decent opportunities and hopefully I'll take them and progress from there," said Welbeck, who admitted he would be forced to consider moving on if he failed to make it into Ferguson's first-team plans.
"It gets to the stage where you have to decide on your future but I'm still only 20 and looking forward to my opportunity."
Ferguson will have to make room for the likes of Welbeck and Tom Cleverley as they return to their parent club and Obertan now appears to be heading back to France with champions Lille interested.
The former Bordeaux starlet has struggled to make an impact since his arrival in 2009 and made just three league starts last season.
However, Ferguson is apparently reluctant to sell the 22-year-old, but is open to a loan move before making a final decision on his future.
