Post: Manchester United is paying attention to the 16-year-old Hertha Berlin midfielder, who has made 10 appearances in the Bundesliga this season

Hupu, November 12th, "Post" northern sports writer Chris Wheeler and football reporter Nathan Salter wrote this week's Manchester United insider special issue. This part is about the introduction of young players and their own youth training.

Eichhorn enters the Red Devils' radar

Manchester United is one of many top European clubs tracking Hertha Berlin's talented midfielder Kennet Eichhorn, who has been compared to German legend Toni Kroos.

The 16-year-old has played 10 games for Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga 2 this season since making his debut against Karlsruhe in August. His contract will contain a release clause of approximately £10 million next summer.

Bayern Munich is expected to take the lead in trying to keep Eichhorn in Germany. It is reported that scouts from Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal are paying attention to him, as well as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

Youth Training Focus

As the January transfer window approaches, behind-the-scenes discussions at the Carrington base are heating up. The core issue is how to plan the development of U21 echelon players.

So far this season, a large number of scouts from the English Football League have come to watch Manchester United's Premier League Second Division (U21) games.

James Scanlon attracted loan interest from Scottish teams in the summer and is currently being watched by many clubs; the futures of players such as Gabriele Biancheri, Jacob Devaney and Jace Fitzgerald also need to be decided, and they all need to take the next step in their careers through loan.

"Discussions are already underway," U21 head coach Travis Binnion told the Post. "It's a great time now during the international break where we can get together and discuss - not only which players may be loaned out, but also the progress of other players."

"I think we are all happy with the performance of the players currently on loan. In January we need to re-evaluate what is best for them, but also consider Think about the boys who remain in the team: how to help them complete the next stage of development. "

Radek Vitek and Harry Armas have performed well in the English Championship, Sonny Aljofri and Ethan Ennis have performed stably in the English League Two, and Ethan Williams has made a mark in Falkirk in Scotland.

It is worth paying attention to the young goalkeeper Eli Harrison. He served as Shrewsbury Town's first goalkeeper at the beginning of the season, but has not played since September 20. Discussions are still ongoing as to whether the loan needs to be terminated early in the winter window.
