Nigeria-eligible defender, Idris Fabiyi, has signed his first-year scholarship contract with Manchester United.
Fabiyi is among 15 promising youngsters who put pen to paper.
Premier League regulations stipulate that all players under 17 years, must begin the season on a scholarship contract, until they become eligible to sign professional terms upon turning 17.
In a statement on Wednesday, United confirmed Fabiyi was among the 15 players selected for these deals.
The others include notable names like Jacey Carrick, son of Red Devils head coach Michael Carrick and Kai Rooney, son of club legend Wayne Rooney.
They are all scheduled to participate in a Professional Development Phase training trip to Germany.
