Manchester United appear to be on the brink of signing one of the hottest prospects in young football in England.
Chido Obi-Martin has been labelled as one of the top talents to come out of the Arsenal youth academy, the same academy that brought up Emile Smith-Rowe and Bukayo Saka.
Obi-Martin announced his exit from Arsenal yesterday, confirming the reports that the 16-year-old was leaving the club.
Thankfully for United fans, the young star seems to be headed to Old Trafford, with the star now dropping a massive hint that he’s to become a Red Devil.
Chido Obi-Martin hint to join United
If Obi-Martin is to join United, his arrival would be a massive move for United, stealing a potential wonderkid from a Premier League rival.
Now, the youngster has Posted his farewell message on Instagram, dropping a massive hint to his future.
Under his goodbye post to Arsenal on Instagram, Obi-Martin liked a number of messages offering support, whilst also getting a lot of abuse from Arsenal fans mad to see him go.
However, interestingly he liked a comment from user ‘christianlang1976’.
The comment read: “You’re a star, I’m looking forward to seeing you bomb goals for United. All the best champ!”, with Obi-Martin liking the post.
Another boost for the Red Devils is that it’s been reported that the move from Arsenal is not financially motivated. The youngster is entirely driven by his chances of play time and entry into the first squad, seeing he can develop further elsewhere.
This like from Obi-Martin could be a massive suggestion that United have won the race for the insanely talented youngster.
