Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign 16-year-old striker Chido Obi-Martin, who left Arsenal earlier this summer.
The exciting young forward who scored 10 goals for Arsenal’s U16s in a single game against Liverpool in November had doubts about his potential pathway to first-team football in north London and has now chosen to continue his career at United.
The Denmark youth international has turned down more lucrative offers from Germany to join United, with his medical expected to take place in the coming days.
Obi-Martin’s Arsenal contract expired this summer and while terms of a new deal had been agreed, he ultimately felt his career development would be better served at a new club.
