The young forward has enjoyed a prolific campaign thus far in our ranks, scoring 10 times in 15 appearances for the Under-21s.
That record includes six appearances against senior opposition, with Ennis proving a key player for Travis Binnion’s young Reds in the EFL Trophy and inaugural National League Cup.
As well as key goals from the right-wing against Barnsley and Doncaster, it was in the latter competition where Ennis netted an impressive hat-trick at Altrincham in mid-November.
This will be Ethan’s first spell away from the club. The 2022 FA Youth Cup-winner signed a new United contract back in summer, when he earned some senior game time in a pre-season friendly against Rosenborg.
