Kayne Diedrick-Roberts Finds A Home At Manchester United

Manchester United has finally come up with a deal to sign-up Kayne Diedrick-Roberts, the Fulham 15-year old striker. The youngster, who can also play winger apart from playing a second striker, is part of Fulham's Premier League International Cup winning squad.

Kayne Diedrick-Roberts performance during the Cup caught the attention of the Manchester United's recruitment staff. In fact, reports confirmed that Kayne Diedrick-Roberts is set to sign his professional contract with the Red Devils this coming July.

Roberts has been released by the Craven Cottage because the club has already completed its strikers line-up. Nonetheless, this release of the 15-year-old from the club has been seen by Manchester United as an opportunity to sign-up the youngster. Although Kayne ran out of room in Fulham, he sure found one in Manchester United.

According to Manchester United, the potentials of Roberts are so great it would be a waste not to be able to see his development. Manchester United is adamant to see those potentials unleashed at the Theatre of Dreams.

Fulham reportedly released Roberts just as when they were struggling to preserve a status quo in the English football's second tier, which happened under Kit Symon's management. Three striking players have completed Fulham's striker's line-up in the age group of Kayne, but the latter apparently was not among the chosen ones.

On another note, just before Manchester United offered to sign up Roberts a deal to be officially sealed this coming July, the Premier League team has been reported to have missed out on getting Martin Odegaard, the high rated Norwegian teenager, who chose to move to Real Madrid than being tied with Manchester United.

There are rumours that Roberts' arrival to Manchester United won't make a greater impact. However, the improving performance shown by James Wilson, Man United's 19-year old front man, would definitely make the newbies' arrival not only convenient but create an impact somehow. With this scenario, it won't really be too hard to imagine the 15-year old Roberts forcing his way into Manchester United's rather strict manager, Louis van Gaal.
