Manchester United are pursuing a move for Leeds United’s 14-year-old wonderkid Finley Gorman and bring the exciting youngster to the club.
According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United are keen to sign Leeds United’s 14-year-old wonderkid Finley Gorman. The schoolboy has developed into a mature footballer for his age and has already featured for the Whites’ Under-18 Premier League side at the Yorkshire club.
Erik ten Hag seems intent on building a competitive Manchester United team down to the youth sides. The Dutch manager had a more modest window during the summer and brought some important players to his first-team squad.
The club signed a new midfielder and bolstered their attack with the arrivals of Mason Mount and Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund. They added Sergio Reguilon late in the window and handed veteran Jonny Evans a short-term deal to shore up their backline.
With the transfer window now shut, Manchester United may have a small period to look at some of the youth signings they wish to make. Croatian talent Dino Klapija remains a big target for the Red Devils. But they face big competition from Bundesliga giants RB Leipzig.
They are vying for 14-year-old wonderkid Finley Gorman’s signature. The Red Devils might make an approach in the coming period to tempt the schoolboy. There is some reported competition for the Leeds United wonderkid, with Manchester City one of those keen.
More clubs are looking at rising stars at a very young age group. Aston Villa are close to signing Freddie Lawrie from Port Vale and are willing to pay a record-breaking six-figure fee. Manchester United may not go to that length for Garmon. But they are keen to snap up the 14-year-old wonderkid.
Gorman recently featured for Leeds United’s Under-18 Premier League side during their victory over the Stoke City Under-18 side. Playing in that team is a significant step up for his current age, and the maturity of his performances is what attracts widespread interest. Manchester United will look to open talks with Leeds United to find a solution. The Yorkshire side will intend to keep hold of Garmin for the foreseeable future.
