Report: Matthew Olosunde leaving Manchester United

According to Rob Dawson of ESPN FC, United States Men’s National Team right back Matthew Olosunde will be leaving Manchester United. Dawson reports that the 21-year-old, whose contract expires on July 1, “is keen to continue his career in Europe -- preferably in England -- rather than return to the [United States].”

He joined Manchester United from the New York Red Bulls academy in 2016. Olosunde never appeared for United’s senior team, but was an integral member of the club’s U-23 side. However, he struggled with injuries this season and therefore only appeared in 5 matches.
