Nick Cox on new first-year scholars and pre-season

A lot has happened since I last tried to summarise the great achievements of our Academy staff, players, alumni and graduates back in June. Then, we were fresh off the back of a fantastic season, filled not just with trophies - three for the Under-18s - and landmarks - a 250th Academy graduate - but consistently brilliant development opportunities on and off the pitch for our young players to develop as people and footballers simultaneously.

Many of these special moments were captured in MUTV’s Lifeblood series, which has been fantastic to see come together over the last nine months.
