The Netherlands Under-21s international joined United in 2016, initially linking up with the Under-18s before a serious injury caused him to miss 10 months of the 2016/17 campaign.
Chong worked his way back and won the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award in 2018 after an excellent season across United’s younger age groups, including a debut goal for the Under-23s against Tottenham Hotspur.
Former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer handed Chong his competitive debut for the senior United side in the FA Cup victory over Reading on 5 January 2019.
He went on to become the first player since Giuseppe Rossi to win the Denzil Haroun Reserve Team Player of the Year award in the season after scooping the Jimmy Murphy accolade.
