Manchester United have struck a deal to sign highly-rated striker Chido Obi-Martin following his departure from Arsenal, according to reports.

Arsenal confirmed last week that Obi-Martin had left the club after rejecting a contract offer from the Gunners.

The 16-year-old striker was regarded as one of the brightest young talents in the Arsenal youth ranks, scoring 32 goals for the club last season – including 10 in one game against Liverpool.

Arsenal wanted to keep hold of the teenager and were surprised he decided to leave despite being offered a deal they believed to be ‘fair’.

Several clubs across Europe expressed interest in signing Obi-Martin, including German giants Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund.

But Manchester United met with the player’s representatives last week and have now agreed a deal to bring him to Old Trafford, according to Fabrizio Romano.
