Manchester United dealt wonderkid transfer bombshell as star in the making asks to leave: report
The academy forward has asked to cancel his registration, leaving United open to tribunal-set compensation if they cannot keep him.
- Manchester United prodigy JJ Gabriel, 15, has submitted a formal request to leave the club, according to the Telegraph, seeking to cancel his registration with immediate effect.
- Gabriel did not train with Michael Carrick's squad at the end of last week amid issues in the relationship between the player's family and United, reportedly involving unclear first-team prospects.
- Nicknamed 'Kid Messi,' the forward scored a hat-trick in the UEFA Youth League last week, having netted 28 goals in 35 matches for the U18s before transitioning to the Under-21s.
- Ryan Giggs, speaking to Rio Ferdinand last week, called the attacker a 'generational talent,' while Manchester City, Arsenal, and Barcelona are expected to scramble for his signature.
- United are not obliged to accept the request and retain hope the situation can be rectified, though the club risks losing Gabriel for tribunal-set compensation rather than a lucrative fee.
