Fabrizio Romano says United have told sensational starlet he will be their “third striker” this season

The 16 year old starlet looks to have been plucked from Arsenal’s academy and is set to join the Red Devils imminently, having rejected several other offers.

Speaking on his YouTube channel this morning, Romano said:

“This kind of deal is something Ineos, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and all the people in the club are planning to do for present and future, to sign top talents and get the opportunities for this kind of player.



United were in a big battle to sign this player, because we have to be fair and say Arsenal made a very big proposal to Chido Obi Martin … Mikel Arteta was also involved.

“But Chido is ready to go to United. Why? Because of the project. The project is obviously Hojlund, Zirkzee, these are the two strikers. But behind them, Chido Obi Martin will be considered the third striker currently at Manchester United.

“So this is the idea, to have a player who obviously can be for the academy, but also helpful for the first team when they will need.
