Manchester United's forgotten youth star Ethan Ennis started for the academy on Monday, as he continues to get back up to speed after recovering from a serious knee injury.
Ennis began his career with Liverpool, but he was poached by United in the summer of 2021 and was the standout signing for the academy in an otherwise quiet window. The youngster signed his first professional contract immediately after celebrating his 17th birthday and he quickly settled into life in Manchester.
However, disaster struck in August 2022 when it was confirmed he'd ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his knee. Ennis has been on a long road to recovery since that injury and made his first appearance after a 14-month lay-off for the Under-21s against Fulham at the end of October.

It's understood the 19-year-old encountered a small setback after his return, but he started against West Brom last month and made another start against Brighton on Monday night. Ennis, who was a prolific forward during his youth career, scored in that game against West Brom and was given 60 minutes at Leigh Sports Village against Brighton.
There were high hopes for Ennis when United poached him from rivals Liverpool and his minutes are being carefully handled so he can begin to reach his full potential. The Manchester Evening News understands Ennis has another year left on his deal, which expires in the summer of 2025, and several different clubs are monitoring his situation. United's U21s play Ennis' former club Liverpool on Friday and he's set to be involved again.
