Leeds United youngster Finlay Gorman is the subject of significant interest from Manchester City following a string of impressive displays for the Whites’ junior sides.
The YEP understands City have made contact with Leeds regarding the 15-year-old, who is believed to be one of United’s premier academy prospects in recent years. The 2008-born attacking midfielder primarily operates from the right-wing and was recently the subject of a viral video, showcasing the youngster’s skills during junior fixtures at Leeds’ Thorp Arch training base and further afield.
Following the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, clubs in England are no longer able to sign players from abroad until their 18th birthdays, putting additional emphasis on teams’ scouting of the domestic market. Transfers of minors are regulated by football’s governing body FIFA and must meet specific requirements, including consent by the player’s parent or legal guardian.
