Nigeria-eligible midfielder Maximilian Oyedele has signed his first professional contract with Premier League giants Manchester United.
Oyedele has spent his entire life in Manchester. The 17-year-old has fast-made a name for himself at Old Trafford. Operating primarily as a defensive midfielder, Oyedele made 22 appearances in the Under-18 Premier League, scoring two goals. He also scored a goal in the run-up to his side’s Youth FA Cup triumph.
