Manchester United have once more added to their youth ranks with the signing of yet another impressive young talent in the form of Chido Obi-Martin.
The Red Devils put significant effort into their youth signings this summer, as well as bolstering their main squad, with a clear view of looking to the future of the club.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe is very clear on his aim to turn Old Trafford and Carrington into the centre of youth development in world football
Some truly impressive signings were made this summer with the likes of Samuel Lusale joining from Crystal Palace, Sekou Kone from Guidars FC in Mali, not to mention Obi-Martin himself.
The Danish striker is a great signing for The Red Devils, with the 16-year-old being labelled as one of the most exciting prospects to come out of Arsenal’s academy.
Although news emerged of United signing Chido Obi-Martin over the summer, due to the nature of the transfer, other authorisation was needed first.
As a transfer between youth academies, the signing of the Danish striker needed to receive approval from the Premier League and the Football Association.
Now it seems that the deal has been approved by both, with Manchester United Youth confirming that Obi-Martin has put pen to paper and has signed his first contract with The Red Devils
