Amorim has already shown his willingness to integrate young talent into the first team, with Kobbie Mainoo becoming a key figure and Toby Collyer earning minutes in the midfield.
United’s academy has always been a cornerstone of the club’s identity, and the current leadership believes it can be both a source of future first-team stars and a means to generate revenue through smart sales.
Developing players internally provides a sustainable approach to squad building, reducing the need for expensive transfers in key positions.
Wilcox has emphasized that United must follow the model of other top clubs, ensuring that their academy pipeline remains strong.
This season, several young players have caught the eye with their performances at various levels.
United’s youth teams have enjoyed success domestically, with the U18s recently extending their unbeaten streak to 11 games in a row.
As the club builds for the future, keeping academy stars fit and available is a priority.
One of United’s most promising young players has now provided a positive update on his road to recovery.

The 17-year-old posted a picture of himself on the field alongside the caption “Not long,” hinting at his imminent return to action.
