Manchester United have added another young player to their ranks.
As confirmed by Belgian news outlet HLN, Manchester United have completed a deal to sign Largie Ramazani from Charlton Athletic.
The 16-year-old striker was photographed holding a United shirt after reportedly agreeing a four-year deal, becoming the third teenager to sign for Jose Mourinho’s side in quick succession.
Ramazani’s arrival follows those of Ethan Gailbraith and Aliou Badara Traore, significantly strengthen a United second string that was low in numbers at the end of the last campaign.
When it comes to senior signings, United have had to make do with Victor Lindelof so far. However their fans are hoping this week could see a breakthrough or two with the addition of a new midfielder and a new striker, the second of which is vital following Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s release earlier this month.
United’s newest addition initially came through the youth ranks at Anderlecht before moving to Charlton, and now he will be hoping to develop his game at United before ultimately staking a claim for a first-team spot.
He will begin as a scholar and Mourinho will not be expecting too much too soon of a player who has a long way to go despite his recent switch.
While United fans could be growing restless at seeing teenagers arrive but no more first-team options, the next few days could see a considerable upturn in form once the dominoes start to fall.
