Chido Obi misses FA Youth Cup as Man Utd advances over Arsenal

Manchester United's 17-year-old striker Chido Obi has garnered attention for his impressive performances in the Under-18s FA Youth Cup, scoring seven goals in just three matches. However, despite calls for his involvement in the senior team's upcoming Europa League matches, Obi cannot participate this season due to registration deadlines after his transfer from Arsenal. He recently celebrated United's thrilling 3-2 victory over Arsenal in the Youth Cup quarter-finals, commenting on social media with a playful jab at his former club. Obi's potential was highlighted by manager Ruben Amorim, who noted his clever play in recent matches. As United prepares to face Fulham in the FA Cup, Obi is expected to continue his role with the first team but will miss the Youth Cup semi-finals. His rise demonstrates a promising future for the young talent as he seeks further opportunities at United.
