According to reports, Manchester United is investing in their future by securing a new contract with their promising prospect, Sam Mather. The 19-year-old, who has yet to step onto the field for the Red Devils, has agreed to a deal that will keep him at the club until 2027. This is a clear sign of the club's belief in his talent and potential.
Mather, a winger, has been making waves in the academy and was a key player in the FA Youth Cup triumph in 2022, starting in every game of the victorious season. Unfortunately, he suffered a setback after this success due to a serious injury. However, he has since recovered and even spent time on a flexi-loan at Rochdale last season.
Manchester United has a unique approach to their flexi-loan agreements, which allows young players to gain valuable first team experience while still being involved with the Red Devils. Mather took advantage of this opportunity and made 10 appearances in the National League for Rochdale, even scoring two goals.
His progress has not gone unnoticed, as Mather had the chance to play alongside some big names in a recent pre-season friendly against Rangers. He came on as a substitute for Jadon Sancho at half-time in the team's 2-0 win. This is a testament to his growth and development within the club.
In more recent news, it has been reported by Fabrizio Romano that Mather has signed a new contract with Manchester United, extending his stay until 2027 with an option for an additional year. This is a further demonstration of the club's confidence in his abilities.
Mather has been consistently involved in first team training with the Red Devils, showcasing his potential to the coaching staff. As the team prepares for their pre-season tour in the United States, Mather will be joining them in their friendlies against Arsenal, Real Betis, and Liverpool. The squad for the tour will be announced on Wednesday, with the players flying out the same day.
Fans of Manchester United can look forward to seeing more of Mather in action, as he continues to grow and develop under the guidance of the club. Stay tuned for more updates, news, and analysis on all things Manchester United.
