They Will Be Thinking – Huddersfield Star Sees Ruben Amorim Factor For Man Utd U21s
Huddersfield Town's German-born Ghanaian defender, Richard Nartey, has impressed at youth level for the Terriers and attracted the attention of Premier League giants Manchester United. The Red Devils approached Huddersfield with a view to signing the youngster in the summer of 2022.
Nartey is a versatile defender who can play at left-back or center-back. He is comfortable in possession and good at reading the game. He is also a threat going forward and has scored several goals for Huddersfield's U21s.
Nartey's performances have not gone unnoticed. In January 2023, he was called up to the England U19 squad for the first time. He made his debut for the Young Lions in a friendly against the Netherlands and played the full 90 minutes.
Manchester United are reportedly keen to sign Nartey in the summer of 2023. The Red Devils are in need of a left-back and Nartey would be a good option. He is still only 18 years old and has plenty of potential.
If Nartey does join Manchester United, he will be following in the footsteps of some illustrious names. The Red Devils have a long history of signing young players from the lower leagues and developing them into first-team stars.
Nartey has all the attributes to become a top player. He is talented, versatile, and has a good attitude. If he continues to develop at the same rate, he could soon be playing for Manchester United's first team.
