Manchester United wants to poach Arsenal's 16-year-old demon striker! Against Liverpool, there were 10 goals in a single game, and the gun contract negotiations broke down

According to British media rumors, Manchester United intend to bring in Arsenal goblin ·Chidozie Obi-Martin (Chidozie Obi-Martin), the 16-year-old is a goalscorer and is considered one of the most promising players in England of his age, who also has Denmark and Nigerian nationality.

Obi Martin made a name for himself last season when he scored 10 goals in a match between Arsenal's Under-16s and Liverpool! The score of that game was naturally very impressive, with the Gunners winning 14-3.

Obi Martin made his debut at KB Club Copenhagen in Denmark to a local mother and a father from Nigeria. He joined Arsenal in 2022 and has become a prolific goalscorer in the youth system. The battle against Liverpool was his masterpiece, but he had other games where he scored crazy goals, such as Arsenal's 9-0 massacre of Norwich, where he scored seven goals alone. During that time, he scored 25 goals in five games.

Arsenal first-team boss Mikel Arteta recruited Obi Martin to train with the first team but failed to make his debut. The record for the youngest player to make an appearance in the Premier League is Brentford's Ethan · Nwaniri, who played at 15 years, 5 months and 28 days, and Obi Martin has been unable to break the record.

Moreover, The Athletic reports that Obi Martin may now leave Arsenal as his contract renewal talks with the club have broken down. The Gunners offered a contract that they thought was fair, but the players didn't approve of it. United saw an opportunity and are exploring it with his team.

On November 29 this year, Obi Martin will be able to sign a professional contract when he turns 17. Manchester United are not the only club looking to poach, with Bundesliga's Bayern Munich already making moves. But The Athletic stressed that City were not interested in him.

Manchester United's Academy has already signed four players this summer, including Reading striker Camron· Mbov, Aston Villa left-back Dante · Prancott, Ipswich wingers Silva · Mexes and Australia Newton Abbott right-back James · Offrey.

This is in line with the philosophy of Manchester United's new shareholder Sir Jim · Ratcliffe, who has publicly refused to invest heavily in superstars. Thomas, a rider for INEOS' cycling team, has suggested signing Britant Bellingham after Rajas's successful takeover of Manchester United, but Ratcliffe believes investing heavily in new players is not the best way to go.

'Jude Bellingham is a great player, but that's not our focus. The solution is not to spend a lot of money on a few great players. If you look at the last 10 years, Manchester United have done it. Now the first thing we need to do is put the right people in the right places, manage and organize the club. We have to make sure that the transfers are right, and the most important part of running a football club is making the right transfers and finding new players.'

The United boss added: "I'd rather find new Kylian Mbappe, Bellingham and Roy · Keane than spend a fortune on success. It's not wise for United to bring in Mbappe right now, and anyone can understand that."

Rajue is also very appreciative of the operation of city rivals Manchester City, and although Pep Guardiola's team is not full of academy players, they have produced a lot of young people to sell for high prices. Now, with two executives in the new operations team who have been with City Football Group for a long time in the past, United are trying to replicate the model of their rivals.
