Bright Prospect Oyedele Named In Manchester United's SuperCupNI Squad

Manchester United have included budding winger Maximilano Oyedele on their roster for the 2019 SuperCupNI in Northern Ireland.

According to the official website of the SuperCupNI, the Nigerian youngster will play with the number 12 jersey during the competition.

Mipo Odubeko, Ayodeji Sotona and Shola Shoretire represented Manchester United in the 2017 edition of the SuperCupNI and went on to make their competitive debuts for the Red Devils U18 team two years later.

Manchester United U15s are competing in the junior section and face Strikers on July 29 at Broughshane, followed by matches against Co Tyrone (July 30) and Charlton Athletic (July 31) at Riada Stadium, Ballymoney and Scroggy Rd, Limavady respectively.

One of the notable Nigerian players to feature in the SuperCupNI is Sone Aluko, who represented Birmingham City U14s in 2003.

Manchester United and Rangers U21 teams faced off at the Showgrounds on Saturday evening as a curtain raiser to the SuperCupNI.
