Young goalkeeper Theo Richardson has moved to Manchester United, according to Manchester Evening.
It is said that the 18-year-old joined the club on trial this year and made his debut in the mini Manchester derby in March.
He made an impressive display in that game, which ended 2-2, making some fantastic acrobatic saves, securing his team a point from the match.
Richardson continued his development and was later named on the bench for the Under 23s match against Arsenal, despite tough competition for a spot.
The goalkeeper has a profile on club’s website – and he’s one of those players to keep an eye on in the next years to come.
“Signed on a permanent contract after arriving on a short-term basis towards the end of the 2016/17 season,” is written in Richardson’s profile.
“One of four keepers with the reserves squad at the training camp in Austria – with Kieran O’Hara, Max Johnstone and Ilias Moutha-Sebtaoui – and likely to push for a place in the under-23s and UEFA Youth League squad.
“Formerly with Leeds United, he produced some outstanding performances when thrust into the Reds’ under-18 team to earn a deal over the course of the summer.”
