Ready for a big… steal from Manchester United is the compatriot City. Pep Guardiola’s side are very close to making the 16-year-old centre-back their own, Harrison Parker, who is considered one of the greatest talents in world football.
In fact, there were several proposals for the young central defender, in order to obtain his signature, but the “citizens” are the ones who will manage to join their roster. On the other hand, Erik Ten Hag has a lot of faith in Parker and will do everything in his power to keep him at the Red Devils, with United prepared to offer him a much bigger offer to convince him to remain.
Parker was born in 2006 and has been in Manchester since 2021, when he was acquired by Arsenal. So far he is playing in United U18, while he is also an international with England U16.
