4 Promising Manchester United Talents on US Pre-Season Tour: One is Son of Club Legend

In April 2024, as Manchester United drew 2-2 with Liverpool at Old Trafford in the Premier League, an eye-catching substitute was brought onto the pitch. His name was Amass, a left-back who had never made his first-team debut before.

However, he has shown his ability for 45 minutes in the previous two pre-season games. The next game will be a challenge for Amass, as he will look to maintain his record against Arsenal at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles at the weekend.

Last summer, Manchester United signed Amass from Watford, beating Chelsea to the signature of the talented youngster, who is also an England Under-17 international. Amass’s immense talent was evident from a young age.

He was even included in Watford’s matchday squad as a 15-year-old in an FA Cup tie at Reading. Since then, Amass has shown a rapid improvement in his game since joining Manchester United. Team Manager Ten Hag saw his potential and decided to promote him to train with the first-team squad.

However, on this tour of the United States, Manchester United are facing a gap in the left-back position. Luke Shaw has not been included in the tour after his appearance at Euro 2024 with England, and Tyrell Malacia is still out with an injury. Therefore, Amass will compete with Sam Murray, another rising star, for the left-back position.

Both young players have great potential and will be looking to show their best abilities to help Manchester United win. All eyes will be on Amass, who will be looking to maintain his record and prove that he is a player worthy of being in the first team.
