Manchester United’s search for Europe’s best young talent is reaching fever pitch right now.
The Red Devils have recently been reported as having agreed to sign talented youngster Chido Obi-Martin. The 16-year-old striker is one of the hottest prospects to come out of the Arsenal academy and is heading to Old Trafford any day now.
With Sir Jim Ratcliffe keen to turn United into the home of the best development of young players in football, signings like Obi-Martin will definitely be making a statement.
Now, United are reportedly closer to sign yet another incredible teenager.
Manchester United to sign Samuel Lusale
The Red Devils are now closing in on yet another one of their young targets, with Crystal Palace’s Samuel Lusale on the verge of an Old Trafford Move.
United have been reported by Manchester_United_Youth on X as having reached a full agreement to sign the 16-year-old.
The winger has rejected a scholarship offer from his former club in favour of joining the Red Devils.
This is an extremely exciting move for United, with Lusale’s agency labelling him as:“a quick, dynamic winger who is regarded as one of the most exciting attacking players in the UK at under-16 level.”
It continued: “Comfortable playing off the right or left wing, his electrifying pace and direct running with the ball makes him a constant threat to the opposition defence. He is often the source of goals and assists for his team.”
With so many young players joining the United academy, the future of the club is certainly looking bright.
Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho have shown this season what the young Red Devils can do when given a chance, with Tom Collyer looking to be given his opportunity to follow in their footsteps.
In no time at all, Obi-Martin and Lusale are sure to be gracing the pitch at Old Trafford with the same success.
