19yo sensation 'impressed' Amorim but will leave on loan with 4 other academy stars
Manchester United are stepping up their youth development drive by sending more academy talents out on loan to gain vital first-team experience.
Elyh Harrison, Enzo Kana-Biyik, Dan Gore, Joe Hugill, Habeeb Ogunneye and Sonny Aljofree have already secured loan transfers for the upcoming campaign.
According to the reliable journalist Rich Fay, five more academy starlets could seal a temporary move away from Old Trafford.
This list includes Ethan Wheatley, Ethan Williams, Jack Moorhouse, Harry Amass and Radek Vitek.
He also revealed that Moorhouse “impressed” manager Ruben Amorim last season and is close to joining League One side Leyton Orient.
Moorhouse has developed into one of the best ball-carrying midfielders at the academy level, drawing comparisons to Morgan Rogers with his dynamic style.
Harry Amass made his long-awaited senior debut under Amorim last term.
The 18-year-old showed why he is considered a superb talent and someone who can thrive at Old Trafford.
However, the arrivals of Patrick Dorgu and Diego Leon have added competition at left wing-back, potentially limiting Amass’ minutes.
A loan spell could be the perfect opportunity for him to build physicality and sharpen his tactical instincts.
Exciting attacking duo Ethan Williams and Ethan Wheatley are also expected to head out on loan in search of consistent game time.
Wheatley endured a frustrating spell at Walsall and now needs a solid run of games to reignite his momentum.
He must take inspiration from Amad Diallo who thrived at Sunderland and is now one of the first names in the XI.
Goalkeeper Radek Vitek is a smart shot-stopper but still has room to grow when it comes to playing out from the back.
Vitek could mature into the kind of modern goalkeeper essential for Amorim’s tactical set-up.
