1931: Tom Manley becomes #mufc's first academy player to appear for the first-team.
2024: Ethan Wheatley becomes #mufc's 250th academy player to appear for the first-team.
Since 1937, there has not been a matchday squad without a #MUAcademy graduate involved.

Sekou Kone signs for #mufc. United first scouted him at U17 World Cup last year and a scout was sent to watch him in an U18 tournament in Morocco in April. Scouts recommended United sign him after tournament performances. Kone will go into the academy squad.
#mufc not actually considering Sekou Kone as an academy signing, despite pedigree at youth level. Will initially train with U18s to adjust to life in England but first appearance for club due to be with U21s before he eventually transitions to the first team squad.
