Manchester United’s commitment to youth development has been a defining trait of the club for decades.
That remains the case under the new INEOS-led project.
Whether it’s recruiting young stars from abroad or bringing talent through the academy, United are determined to build for the future.
That vision has been reinforced with the news that Amir Ibragimov has signed his first professional contract with the club.
The highly rated attacking talent has been tipped for a big future, with many at United viewing him as a potential star in the years to come.
Ibragimov netted a hattrick against Liverpool for the U17’s back in September.
Although born in Dagestan, Russia, Ibragimov represents England at international youth level.
Capable of playing in multiple attacking positions, the 17-year-old made two appearances for United’s Under-18s in the 2023/24 season.
His versatility, creativity, and technical ability levels have stood out in United’s youth setup.
His potential has now earned him a deal to continue his development at Carrington.

Shortly after signing his contract, Ibragimov took to Instagram to confirm the news, marking another significant step in his young career.
His progression through the ranks highlights United’s continued investment in young players.
There seems to be a much more clear pathway from the academy to the first team.
This is a particularly exciting time for young players at United.
With the club’s current first-team struggles, comes more opportunities for academy graduates.
Both Chido Obi and Ayden Heaven have already caught the eye, demonstrating how the club is willing to trust its youth prospects.
With Ibragimov now committed to the club, the pathway to first-team football looks brighter than ever for United’s next generation.
