A TINY village in the Gaeltacht is on cloud nine after Manchester United signed a local teenager for a three-year deal as a goalkeeper.

Joe Coll, who turned 16 last month, signed on the dotted line last Saturday with manager Alex Ferguson.

He has already appeared on Ireland under-age teams and is tipped to be the third goalkeeper from Donegal to be the number one choice for the senior national team after Packie Bonner and Shay Given.

Joe, who is six-foot-one-and-a-half-inches tall, heads off to Old Trafford on Sunday for a full medical.

Arrangements are being made to continue his schooling after he joins the club full-time on July 5.

But yesterday he was still at school at Pobalscoil Chloich Cheannfhaola, Falcarragh, where he is in fourth year.

Dad Tom, a FAS-scheme youth worker with Joe's Glenea United team in the Donegal Youth League, said: "The whole area is very excited but young Joe still has his feet very much on the ground."

Tom, a 49-year-old former striker, won an FAI Junior Cup medal in 1979.

Several UK clubs approached Joe in recent years after he was spotted by a Charlton scout playing in an under-13 competition in Limerick.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Wolves, Newcastle, Spurs, Manchester City and Celtic showed interest, but Alex Ferguson convinced him his future lay at United.

"He wished me good luck and success and he told me they were not signing me just for the sake of signing me but one day to become the number one at the club."

Luke McCullough (CB) for the Academy this season (debuts in the Milk Cup?)

Charni Ekangamene - Attacking Midfielder ( already played for the reserves as a sub against Wigan end of this season)

Manchester United are set to sign youngster Charni Ekangamene from feeder club Royal Antwerp on his 16th birthday.

The rookie attacker is still only 15 but is earmarked for a professional contract at Old Trafford after impressing during a trial spell in Manchester.

Sir Alex Ferguson has often used the Belgian side to develop his own youngsters, including Danny Higginbotham, Luke Chadwick, John O'Shea and Darron Gibson, but is ready to reverse the trend.

After former Antwerp defender Ritchie De Laet joined United from Stoke City in January, Belgian-Congolese kid Ekangamene looks on his way to the European champions later this year, despite rival interest from Ajax.

"He is a great talent," Antwerp's youth co-ordinator Alex Vervecken told HNB.

"He is mentally strong and is never nervous."

Vervecken and club secretary Paul Bistiaux accompanied the teenager on his initial trip to Manchester and a contract is expected to be signed when he becomes eligible as The Red Devils have been monitoring his progress carefully.

Joe Coll was first spotted by a Charlton scout playing in Limerick in an Under-13 competition. The player is due to undergo his medical at Old Trafford on Sunday, and he will join up with the Premier League champions on July 5th.

Young quintet to depart

Five United youngsters will leave the club at the end of June.

Tom Heaton's move to Cardiff City has already been confirmed, and he will be followed out of Carrington by Febian Brandy, Sam Hewson, Scott Moffatt and Ron-Robert Zieler.

The quintet's contracts all expire at the end of the current month, and they will be free to join new clubs from 1 July.

Manchester United would like to wish all five boys the very best of luck in their careers.


Brandy sempat bbrapa kali bahkan sering membela reserves dan bermain baik, sayang dilepas nih bocah.

Setuju bro, Brandy dan Hewsonn bukannya sering dinilai sebagai pemain muda yang yahud ya? Kok dilepas sih...bingung ane

[Redsbusby]

Setuju bro, Brandy dan Hewsonn bukannya sering dinilai sebagai pemain muda yang yahud ya? Kok dilepas sih...bingung ane

Mungkin masih banyak pemain lain yg lebih Worthed dimata Klub kali bro..hehehe,.. Brandy emg bagus sih, tp buat saya Joshua King lebih bagus lagi :D

[Supernan]

Mungkin penilaian dr coaching staff United ngebuat mereka ga bs dapetin tmpat di tim reserves lg musim depan yah.

Nama" sperti King, Keane, dan masi bnyk lg pasti bakal rebutan tempat. Intinya salah bersaing aja mungkin mereka. :)

[red_devilz]

Brandy terlalu "mungil" untuk ukuran Liga Inggris yg mengandalkan fisik . Berkarir d Championship atau League One / Two merupakan opsi yg logis untuk diri nya ... :peace:

Kok gak ada kabar isu transfer masuk pemain muda yg diminati United ya ?? Seperti Pogba musim lalu atau Petrucci 2 musim yg lalu ??? :nohope:

[fredrian.seven]

Menurutku keputusan MU sudah tepat. Pemaen2 yang dilepas tidak cukup bagus buat maen di MU. Mungkin disaat muda mereka berprospek tapi seiring waktu perkembangan mereka tidak terlalu bagus. Sukses buat brandy cs. Moga karirnya lancar di klub laen.

[Redsbusby]

Iya nih, kabarnya Pogba yg sempet jadi kontroversi, dan Petrucci yg sempet d Protes Roma, kok ngga ada kabar? Jangan sampe tragedi Tosic terulang kembali :devil2:

[Wengge Schmeichel]

Youngster yg dilepas bukannya tidak berkualitas, namun krn faktor development dimana terlalu banyak pemain namun tidak semuanya dapat bermain penuh...youth development akan mati kalo para youngster tetep dipertahanin, makanya diperlukan balance squad...direlease bisa aja membuat pemain berkembang dibanding duduk d bench atau pemain yg mentok karirnya krn nga dpt tempat...

No surprises as Reds release five
nickogs20 on June 24, 2010

United have confirmed that Febian Brandy, Tom Heaton, Sam Hewson, Scott Moffatt and Ron-Robert Zieler will be leaving the club upon the expiry of their contracts next week.

Today’s announcement contained no real surprises, with all five players having been expected to move on this summer. Goalkeepers Heaton and Zieler have already secured free transfers to Cardiff City and Hannover 96 respectively, while Brandy and Hewson have been listed on the PFA Transfer List for several weeks. Moffatt meanwhile struggled to make an impact last season, featuring just four times for the reserves.

The departures of Brandy and Hewson in particular offer food for thought for those attempting to forecast the next big things coming through the ranks at Carrington. Hotly-tipped to break through after playing key roles in the Reds’ FA Youth Cup run and Champions Youth Cup success in 2007, both have seen younger players jump ahead of them in the pecking order after enduring a series of relatively unproductive spells out on loan and will now be seeking to kickstart their careers elsewhere, with there likely to be a number of potential suitors in the Football League.

Messrs Heaton and Zieler have the security of contracts signed and sealed and ready to come into effect on July 1st, and while neither will join their new club as first choice, they will have every opportunity to compete for the starting job in goal. With Cardiff perennial challengers for promotion to the Premier League and Hannover surviving last year in the ever-improving Bundesliga, the future looks bright for the young shot-stoppers.

For the injury-hit Moffatt, a disappointing lack of playing time over the last two years may make his task of finding a new club a tricky one, but Altrincham boss Graham Heathcote praised the Mancunian right-back after his brief loan spell at Moss Lane last season, perhaps an indicator that he may attract interest from clubs around that level.

Best of luck to Febian, Sam, Scott, Tom and Ron-Robert in their future careers.

McCullough confirms United move
http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/News%20Item%20Pics/luke-mccullough-mar-10.jpg
Posted by nickogs20 on June 29, 2010

Northern Ireland U17 captain Luke McCullough has confirmed that he has signed a two-year scholarship contract with United and will join up with the Reds for the imminent start of pre-season training.

The Portadown youngster has been a regular triallist at Carrington over the past couple of years and was rumoured to have agreed to scholarship terms earlier this year. The club should be announcing details of the new intake of first year academy scholars in the next couple of weeks, but McCullough has pre-empted that in an interview with UTV News.

“It’s any boy’s dream to get any club across the water but to get United, it’s an added bonus,” said the 16 year-old, despite his boyhood allegiance towards a certain other North West side who wear red (“I’ll just have to forget about Liverpool for now“). The talented young centre-half swells the number of Northern Irish players at Old Trafford to six, joining a quintet of fellow youth internationals (Craig Cathcart, Conor Devlin, Corry Evans, Joe Dudgeon and Oliver Norwood) and an ideal role model in the form of countryman and fellow defender Jonny Evans. “Definitely someone to look up to“, McCullough says of the Reds first-teamer. “It’s a great achievement for somebody from Northern Ireland to be a regular at Manchester United.“

McCullough won’t be the only new recruit heading across the Irish Sea this summer, with 16 year-old Donegal goalkeeper Joe Coll having signed scholarship forms back in March. Four United schoolboys are also thought to have been taken on as scholars, with U16 captain Luke Hendrie and England youth defender Tyler Blackett likely to be among that number.

Seven new scholars announced
Posted by nickogs20 on July 2, 2010

With pre-season training set to get underway next week, the full list of new first-year academy scholars has been revealed.

The seven new names were confirmed in a series of tweets (1, 2, 3) from United in-house journalist Ben Hibbs. The majority of the seven were already known but there were a couple of surprises, most notably the presence of two goalkeepers in the new intake, a rare sight and something that – with Sam Johnstone entering his second year – should ensure fierce competition for the number one jersey in the U18s this coming season.

Here’s what we know so far about the seven new hopefuls*…

TYLER BLACKETT
Defender
Born 2nd April 1994 in Manchester

http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/MidArticle%20Photos/tylerblackett.jpg

Born and raised in Manchester, Tyler has been on United’s books since the age of eight, having been spotted playing for the renowned Fletcher Moss Rangers junior club in Didsbury (also the starting point in Wes Brown’s career). Most at home at centre-back, where his height, strength and pace make him a formidable opponent, Tyler can also play at full-back – indeed, his solitary appearance for the U18s thus far saw him impress at left-back in a draw with Sheffield Wednesday earlier this year, and with the plethora of central defenders available to Paul McGuinness, the wide positions may initially be his best route into the side.

United fan Tyler attended the same Urmston school as academy team-mate Ravel Morrison and has represented England at U16 level (appearing in last year’s successful Victory Shield campaign), although he also remains eligible to play for Jamaica or Barbados through family ties.

JOE COLL
Goalkeeper
Born 2nd February 1994 in Meenlaragh, County Donegal, Ireland

http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/MidArticle%20Photos/joecoll.jpg

Joe signed for the Reds back in March after Sir Alex Ferguson and academy director Brian McClair went to great lengths to secure the much-coveted keeper’s services in the face of competition from a host of Premier League clubs. Hailing from Meenlaragh in County Donegal, Irish-speaking Joe has played for local side Glenea United since the age of six and has been capped eight times by his country at Under-16 level, impressing enough to be somewhat predictably tagged ‘the new Shay Given’.

A big Celtic fan (United are his favourite English side), Joe’s biggest goalkeeping influence is Bhoys stopper Artur Boruc. Standing 6’1″ tall, the left-footed Irishman has ideal height for his position, especially considering his age, and boasts terrific reflexes, attributes shown when the 16 year-old appeared for the academy while on trial in last October’s friendly match against Maltese side Hibernians.

CHARNI EKANGAMENE
Forward
Born 16th February 1994 in Antwerp, Belgium

http://www.rafc.be/images/jpeg/news_2008/news20081116_01.jpg

United beat perennial title rivals Arsenal and Chelsea to the punch (as well as Dutch giants Ajax) when snapping up Charni Ekangamene from affiliate club Royal Antwerp in March 2009. A versatile young attacker with strength and pace in abundance, Antwerp youth coach Alex Verveckken has described Charni as “a great talent”, going on to add that the teenager “is mentally strong and never nervous.”

Belgian-born but of Congolese descent, Charni moved to Manchester earlier this year after turning 16 and made a surprising late-season appearance in the reserves’ 1-0 defeat at Wigan. He was unable to make much of an impression in a 15-minute cameo that day but will be given every chance to impress over the next couple of seasons.

LUKE HENDRIE
Midfielder
Born 27th August 1994 in Leeds

http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/MidArticle%20Photos/lukehendrie.jpg

Son of former Bradford City and Middlesbrough forward John and second cousin of former Aston Villa and England midfielder Lee, Luke comes from a real footballing family. Having started out with his boyhood club Bradford, where his younger brother Jordan remains on the books, talented all-round athlete Luke followed in the footsteps of Tom Cleverley in making the move from the Bantams to Old Trafford and has regularly impressed at U15 and U16 level, notably as captain at last year’s Manchester United Premier Cup.

Primarily a central midfielder with an eye for goal and strong all-round game, Luke also showed his versatility when making his debut for England U16s against Wales last autumn in an unfamiliar right-back role. His final schoolboy season was cut short by a serious foot injury, but having already done enough to secure a scholarship, Luke should be fully fit and ready to go as pre-season training gets underway.

LIAM JACOB
Goalkeeper
Born 18th August 1994 in Sydney, Australia

Very much the mystery man of the new intake, Sydney-raised Liam is a graduate of the Australian city’s International Goalkeeper Academy and originally moved to England with Liverpool after a successful trial in late 2008. He appeared for the Merseyside club’s U18 and reserve sides last season aged just fifteen but also spent time on trial with United, during which he was an unused substitute in the U18s’ 2-0 win over Sunderland in March.

While Liam is definitely something of an unknown quantity, United’s decision to hand the reportedly-6’3″ stopper a scholarship despite having already signed a first-year ‘keeper in the form of Joe Coll earlier in the year suggests the club felt they couldn’t miss out on the opportunity to bring the young Aussie into the fold. The competition for the number one jersey at U18 level figures to be an intriguing aspect of the coming campaign.

TOM LAWRENCE
Forward
D.O.B. unknown, born in Wrexham, Wales

http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/MidArticle%20Photos/tomlawrence.jpg

A lively, talented attacker comfortable both in a forward role or in midfield, Tom has been on United’s books for a number of years and has impressed at a number of youth tournaments, including Marveld and the Manchester United Premier Cup. Included in the U18 squad that travelled to Malta for a training camp last October, the Welsh teenager made the most of his opportunity by getting on the scoresheet in the 3-1 friendly win over Hibernians FC.

A Welsh Under-17 international, the Wrexham-born youngster scored on his debut for his country in a defeat to a Basque County U18 side back in February and has this week been named in the squad for a friendly tournament against Sweden later this month.

LUKE MCCULLOUGH
Centre-back
Born 15th February 1994 in Portadown, Northern Ireland

http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/MidArticle%20Photos/lukemccullough.jpg

Already a first-teamer in the Irish League for Dungannon Swifts and captain of the Northern Ireland U17 side, Luke joins the Reds with a burgeoning reputation after his performances for club and country. Hailing from Portadown, the 16 year-old right-sided centre-back boosts the Northern Irish contingent at United to seven and has been compared with first-team star Jonny Evans due to his maturity and composure on the ball, with NI’s U17 boss stating that he “could be in the senior side very soon.”

Luke has starred at the Northern Ireland Milk Cup for County Armagh and impressed at Carrington during a number of trial spells, and while he’s a self-confessed Liverpool fan, so were Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and John O’Shea – if Luke fares half as well, United fans will have no cause for concern…

Young duo turn pro as Vermijl signing confirmed

Posted by nickogs20 on July 4, 2010

http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q439/ManUnitedYouth/Blog%20Graphics/News%20Item%20Pics/vermijl_marnick.jpg

United have confirmed the signing of Belgian teenager Marnick Vermijl from Standard Liege and the award of professional contracts to goalkeeper Conor Devlin and striker John Cofie.

We brought news of Vermijl’s signing back in March and the club have now officially confirmed the arrival of the 18 year-old defender. No further details have been given, but assuming the information back in March was correct, Vermijl joins on a three-year deal worth €100,000 a year, with United paying Standard €220,000. Versatile enough to play anywhere across the back-line, the teenager is highly-rated in his homeland and his progress this season – most likely as part of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s reserve squad – will be extremely interesting to monitor.

Devlin being handed a professional contract is no surprise, the Northern Irishman having impressed over his two-year scholarship. After 36 appearances for the academy, the 18 year-old keeper will move up to reserve level this season and will expect to substantially build on his two appearances under Solskjaer so far, with the number one jersey for the second string very much his to lose. Cofie turning pro is a little more unexpected, the Ghana-born forward being only a year into his scholarship and having had an up-and-down first full season in the U18s, but with the majority of his fellow new second years having signed pro forms already, his new deal is further evidence of just how highly-rated this particular crop is.

Sippp.. akhirnya stok Kiper kita bertambahhh..hehehe

Preston swoop for Gray

Scottish defender David Gray has joined Preston North End on a free transfer.

The 22-year-old spent six years at United, progressing through the ranks from the Academy to the Reserves, and joins Darren Ferguson's side on a two-year deal.

Speaking to the official PNE website, Gray said: "I have been on loan for the last two seasons and now I have got a permanent move which I think I will enjoy.

"Preston have always been a solid Championship side for as long as I can remember. There are great traditions and it is a big club."

Gray will see a familiar face at Deepdale - young United midfielder Matty James joined the Lilywhites on a season-long loan deal earlier this month.

Lagi ya pemain dilepas gabung ke PNE, setw gw ini si Gray sering dimainin sama Opa kalo Piala Carling/friendly match gt. Mungkin kalah bersaing sm nama lain ya. Good Luck gray! :muscarf:

gimana ya kabar sjahbandi di academy man united ???

Manchester United have taken Finnish keeper Lukas Hradecky on trial.The 20-year-old currently plays for Danish side Esbjerg and has one cap for his country.
Hradecky is spending the week at United’s Carrington training base in an attempt to impress.

He said: 'It is not an option you get very often, so I will just do as well as possible. I’m thrilled to get such a chance.'
United are on the look-out for fresh keeping talent having released Tom Heaton at the end of last season.

Craig Cathcart makes makes Seasiders switch - £500k deal seals move from Old Trafford

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/08/08/article-0-04FE882F000005DC-496_468x462.jpg

Manchester United defender Craig Cathcart is joining Premier League newcomers Blackpool in a £500,000 deal.

Pool boss Ian Holloway failed with a £350,000 offer for Cathcart, 21, last week but has had an improved bid accepted.

Northern Ireland international Cathcart has been with United since he was 14 but failed to notch a single first-team appearance and has been loaned out to Watford and Plymouth.

Holloway is also hopeful of completing deals for Derby striker Rob Hulse and Swansea front man Stephen Dobie this week.

Chairman Karl Oyston said: 'Various deals are being accepted and players are having medicals so with a bit of luck there will be one or two additions.'

Dailymail

[Redsbusby]

Hmm, saya lupa, tapi kayaknya ada member dimari yg sempet jagoin Craig Catchart bakal jadi bek masa depan United. DIsamain ama Steve Bruce kalo ngga salah. Sayang banget, kayaknya impian tinggal impian. Cacthart pernah dikasi kesempatan bermain di TIm Utama 2 tahun lalu, sayang, masih kurang berkesann.. Good Luck Then:thumbup::shakehand:

Santos to sign Possebon

United midfielder Rodrigo Possebon is set to join Brazilian club Santos.

The deal is still in progress and is expected to be completed on Friday 20 August, but the two-times FIFA Club World Cup winners are keen to herald Possebon's imminent arrival.

A story on the Santos website on Thursday night (UK time) spoke of a four-year deal and the player, born in Brazil but an Italy U20 international, is quoted as saying: "It is a unique opportunity and I will work hard to give my best here. I hope to play a lot of football."

Possebon, now 21, joined United in January 2008 from Brazilian side Internacional and made his first-team debut as a substitute on the opening day of the 2008/09 season.

Since then, however, he has managed just eight first-team appearances, although he's often impressed for the Reserves. He spent the first half of last season on loan at Sporting Braga in Portugal before returning to Old Trafford in January 2010.
