Manchester United midfielder Amir Ibragimov takes part in first-team training aged just 15
29.04.2023 - 09:47 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Amir Ibragimov trained with Manchester United's first team at Carrington on Friday, despite being aged just 15 years old.
Ibragimov, who only celebrated his 15th birthday this month, shared a post on social media suggesting he'd taken part in first-team training and sources have confirmed to the Manchester Evening News the youngster was part of the session.
It's unusual for a 15-year-old to train with the first team, but Ibragimov is considered one of the leading prospects in the academy.
Ibragimov was born in Russia and he was initially part of Sheffield United's academy after his family moved to England. The midfielder has since captained United's Under-14s and Under-15s and he's made five appearances for the Under-18s this season.

United fielded numerous enquiries about the future of the youngster last summer, but the club were always keen to secure his long-term future given his high potential as a player and he was tied down to a new deal in August.
Ibragimov will stay with United throughout his scholarship period until he is eligible for professional terms when he turns 17.
The youngster is eligible to represent Russia and England, and he's already featured for the Three Lions at youth level.
