Manchester City closely monitoring Benjamin Fredrick

Premier League giants Manchester City have their eyes set on 18-year-old Nigerian youth international Benjamin Fredrick.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City are keeping tabs on Benjamin Fredrick. The 18-year-old defender has put in some impressive shifts in the ongoing FIFA Under-20 World Cup 2023. And, his performances have attracted the attention of a lot of clubs from across Europe.

Fredrick has been a part of the Simoiben Football Club since the start of his professional career. The 18-year-old has come through the ranks and has been subject to multiple loan moves to gain experience.

He came into the limelight while playing in the Under-20 African Cup back in March 2023. And the teenage sensation was one of the standout performers in the tournament. Since then, a lot of clubs have been keeping a close eye on the 18-year-old, including RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich.

Given the amount of interest in his services, the Nigerian teenage sensation could be on the move to Europe in the upcoming transfer window. As of now, the teenager is part of the Nigerian Under-20 team that has just stunned Argentina to make it to the quarter-finals of the FIFA Under-20 World Cup.

Fredrick has been a standout performer and he has hardly put a foot wrong so far. His performances have attracted the attention of Manchester City, who are currently fighting for the treble.

The Premier League champions have been closely following him and are expected to further scout him in the coming weeks. The 18-year-old has shown exceptional levels, and City could push for his services in the near future.

Manchester City are known for their ability to scout young talented players and sign them. They have signed quite a few young stars of late, and Fredrick could be another name on their list soon.
