Tyler Fletcher’s third year at United
This is Tyler Fletcher’s third year at Manchester United since leaving Manchester City’s academy in 2023.
His first year in the under-18s saw him lag behind his brother Jack in terms of game time. His twin’s more attacking game also grabbed more recognition.
Last season Tyler really stepped up as a regular, reaching into double figures for assists.
This season the 19-year-old has made 28 appearances in all competitions at academy level, playing a crucial role in the under-21 side’s success.
