Manchester United have launched a double deal to sign two of English football's most exciting wonderkids.

The Athletic report that England Under-17s captain Seth Ridgeon and Tyrese Noubissie, for Manchester City's academy, have both been offered contracts by United.

United are keen to snap up the best young talent in Britain and have scoured academies for possible new recruits.

Ridgeon and Noubissie are among the most sought-after in the country, with a number of clubs chasing their signatures.

Attacking midfielder Ridgeon, 16, is currently with Fulham but is attracting interest from United, City, Chelsea and Liverpool. Fulham are desperate to keep him, but The Athletic report that United's impressive offer makes them his most likely destination.

Noubissie, a six-four-two midfielder who cost £1million two years ago, has decided to leave City after struggling to find playing opportunities. He holds a French passport through his father, which has attracted the likes of Chelsea sister club Strasbourg.

Both players have been given tours of both Old Trafford and the club's Carrington training complex, during which they met first-team manager Ruben Amorim.
