Manchester United are working towards adding another wonderkid to the youth ranks at Carrington.
There has been a noticeable shift in Manchester United’s transfer strategy under Ineos, with several exciting youngsters being signed from around the globe.
Ineos are hoping to add a few more this summer having already signed Harley Emsden-James and showing serious interest in signing Seth Ridgeon.
But another target on Ineos’ radar is Manchester City youth star Tyrese Noubissie, and now he has announced his exit.

Noubissie is a 16-year-old midfielder who is held in very high regard at City, and United are eager to bring him across Manchester to Carrington.
United wanted Noubissie in 2023 but were beaten to the French midfielder by City. Now, Ineos are planning to reignite interest.
United in Focus transfer correspondent Graeme Bailey has confirmed that United have made an offer to Noubissie, and now he has confirmed his departure on social media.
Via Instagram, Noubissie claimed it was time to “turn a page and face a new challenge”.
Noubissie cost Man City £1m back in 2023 and is now ready to make a step to a new club.

United are far from the only team around Europe trying to secure Noubissie’s signature.
Everton, Newcastle and Tottenham all held talks with Noubissie this summer, but it is French outfit Strasbourg who are leading the race.
According to L’Equipe, Noubissie is set to sign his first professional contract with Strasbourg after leaving City.
