Report: Manchester United readying to sign Matthew Olosunde

We were expecting a young RBNY defender named Matthew to move to Europe shortly. Not necessarily Matthew Olosunde, though.

The Daily Mail reports Manchester United is readying itself for a mid-winter shopping spree, and the club's wishlist includes 17-year-old Matthew Olosunde, a defender who was part of the USA U-17 men's national team's 2015 U-17 World Cup campaign and a Trenton-born product of the New York Red Bulls Academy.

Olosunde was first linked to United this summer, when he trained with the club during its preseason tour of the USA.
