Manchester United are on the verge of signing 16-year-old striker Chido Obi-Martin, following his departure from Arsenal.
According to The Athletic, Obi-Martin recently visited United’s Carrington training facilities, with early-stage discussions already underway.
Arsenal had made a competitive offer to retain the young talent, but Chido Obi-Martin chose to explore new opportunities.
Manchester United are reportedly leading the race to sign the youngster who joined Arsenal from Danish club KB in 2022.
Obi-Martin has shown impressive form at the youth level. The youngster represented Denmark in the 2024 UEFA European Under-17 Championship qualifiers, netting twice in three group stage games.
If the deal is finalized, Obi-Martin will initially sign a scholarship before transitioning to a professional contract upon turning 17.
